Maddy loves dogs, and they love her! She has been interacting with my Schnauzer and foster dogs since she was a child. Whether the foster pup is a former puppy-mill breeder in need of a gentle touch, or a boisterous young dog needing healthy play time, Maddy instinctively knows how to approach dogs, gain their trust, and learn their personalities and needs. As a dog owner herself, Maddy is serious about animal care and training. She has high standards of care, particularly in providing activities appropriate to the breed. As a result, her own dog is a sweet, well-adjusted pup. As she prepares for a career as a service dog trainer, Maddy continues to share her love of and expertise with dogs and their people. Maddy comes from a dog-loving family and has experience with numerous breeds—from a high-energy to Cockapoo to a sassy terrier to a laid-back Newfie. I know when she is caring for my dogs, they are safe, happy, and relaxed.
