With over 15 years of experience working with dogs through rescue, I have fostered and rehabilitated over 1,000 dogs successfully. I specialize in helping dogs who struggle with anxiety and socialization issues. I have a deep passion for pack life and thrive when working with large groups of dogs, where I love observing how they teach one another the dynamics of pack behavior. While I love teaching puppies new commands, I am a sucker for hearing "we just adopted this dog and need help with..."
When I am not working with the dogs, I am out playing softball, riding my horses, or volunteering at the local shelter. If you were to ask anyone to say one thing about me, they would say "animals are her life" and I live each and every day for them! I am a firm believer that a balanced dog is a happy dog, and that no dog is too old to learn a new trick!
