My story begins with my housemate bringing a puppy home. It was love at first bark. Not only did I want to spend all my time with this furrrrr ball, but I also wanted to become a fantastic dog whisperer. I took all the classes I could find to be a trainer and understand animal behaviors. My passion is all our misunderstood animals, from the big bullies to the short, feisty bark-o-meters, from those who scream wuff to those who meows at you nonstop. I recently started raising chickens at a nearby farm as well. So if your pet friend, clucks, call me. After being diagnosed with Lupus, I took a long break for health reasons but continued to take in all the love my pet friends at home and in your home gave me. Pets taught me patience; they showed me that the energy you provide is the one you receive. I also rescued a tripod and a barn cat to go with our entire pack. My dog diamond has made it in this year's Pet calendar for humane rescue alliance! Go, Diamond! If you introduce me to your pet, I will have a different, holistic approach, but we both need to understand that training takes time, patience, and consistency. After a horrible experience, I almost changed my career, but it was not the pets. Trust me, they always loved and invited me back into their lives, which I am grateful for. I believe in my heart that animals are better than humans.
