THE CATALYST
My journey into the world of dog training began unexpectedly, sparked by the arrival of my first canine companion during my young adult years. Raised in a household with only cats, I quickly realized I had much to learn about our four-legged friends.
GOOD FORTUNE
For the past 25 years, I've dedicated myself to the art of dog obedience instruction, embarking on a fulfilling path that has taken me through various esteemed organizations. It all started with the Mountaineer Kennel Club, followed by enriching experiences at Hi Joy Hills K9, and presently, I find myself thriving at The Clever Canine. What captivates me is the opportunity to work with pet dogs, guiding them through the essentials of home manners, the joy of tricks, and the excitement of interactive games.
I've shared my life with a delightful assortment of German Shepherds, Australian Shepherds, and mixed breeds—each leaving an indelible mark on my journey.
The pinnacle of my canine adventures lies in the accomplishments I've achieved alongside my own dogs. From Obedience and rally titles to the intricacies of tricks, herding, agility, and the fascinating realm of K9 Nosework, I've experienced the joys of training and bonding with these remarkable companions.
This enduring passion for understanding and communicating with dogs has not only enriched my life but has also allowed me to empower countless pet owners in fostering a deeper connection with their beloved canine family members.
