I've lived with and loved all animals since I was tiny, and have a special gift for non-verbal communication with critters. My experience includes our own mini-farm, working my aunt's petting zoo, interning at a therapeutic riding program, and most recently at working at Project2Heal for the past year. In addition to traditional kennel duties of feeding, cleaning, etc, I helped whelp Lab puppies, monitored their health, provided ENS (early neurological stimulation), introduced puppies to water, bathing, basic obedience, obstacles, field trips, etc. I also worked, played with, and took mature dogs on field trips. I also still work with my aunt's mini Aussies, providing basic obedience training and play. I am very kind, relate well to dogs but stern when needed, and follow instructions well.
