About Me
Picture by Great Dane Photography
I have been training dogs as far back as I can remember. As a child, I spent a lot of time training my family dogs to do basic tricks and obedience skill. As an adult, I have taken dog training classes, on subjects including obedience, agility, Rally FrEe, and canine freestyle. I am always striving to improve my knowledge and skills by taking classes through the Denise Fenzi Academy and other online classes. I became seriously involved in dog sports after I got my Border Collie, Lily, and we have gotten several titles together including Rally FrEe Novice Skills test, Canine Good Citizen certificate, and a number of agility titles as you can see on Lily's page. I was mentored by Mary Hunter, from Dogs A' Flying Dog Training LLC. She has been sharing her years of knowledge and experience with me to help me be successful not only in training my own dogs, but in helping train others as well. Since then I have several students who are now competing in local agility events and they have earned many titles! I have also helped many more dogs and owners learn to communicate with eachother leading to them having a more successful life together.
