I have ten years of experiencing in training dogs for competitive agility. I have also participated in classes with dogs for obedience, rally obedience, and conformation. I dedicate much of my time to learning about the nutritional needs of animals, the way they learn and what training strategies are best, and their health. I have raised several dogs on my own and have experience with many different breeds, including cattle dogs, border collies, dobermans, German shepherds, Labrador retrievers, shetland sheepdogs, and mixed breeds. I am willing and able to assist new puppy owners and first time dog owners in basic obedience training. Dogs have always been a passion of mine since I was young and play a large role in my life as an adult.
