I have loved animals and especially dogs my entire life. I currently have three dogs who are the loves of my life. From toddler to adulthood, I have always immediately connected with dogs. We "get" each other. The gift of unconditional love dogs that dogs offer is sincere, innocent and genuine. I love working with animals of all ages, sizes and personalities. I believe understanding and strengthening our relationship with our pets is critical in building strong bonds together. I have worked and volunteered at animal rescue organizations walking dogs among other things. In 2010, I became an Assistant Dog Trainer with the Greater St. Louis Training Club. Ironically, it is not as much about training the dogs as it is training people :-) I love it!
