If you asked me how I ended up in the world of dog training, specifically focusing on service dogs, I’d say it’s where passion and purpose collided. Watching dogs transform into incredible companions for those in need is nothing short of inspiring. The joy and independence they bring to their humans is a sight to behold. Over the years, I’ve learned not just about techniques for training, but also about the incredible bond that forms between a person and their canine partner. It’s this connection that fuels my desire to share tips and insights that make the journey rewarding for both the handler and the dog.

When I’m not immersed in the world of pups and training sessions, you can usually find me indulging in my favorite hobbies like baking exotic pastries—caramel flan, anyone?—or diving headfirst into a new novel that has me binge-reading late into the night. I’m also a huge fan of crafting personalized greeting cards, which I proudly distribute to friends and family, even if they may not always appreciate my sense of humor! My belief is that life is too short not to sprinkle a little creativity and compassion everywhere, whether it’s through dog training or the little joys we create in everyday life.
