About
I started my dog career when I graduated high school. I got a job working at a kennel that offered boarding, daycare, grooming and training. I worked in all aspects of the company except grooming which allowed me to learn a lot about dog care and behavior. After a year of working there I got to help out with their puppy preschool program. Puppy raising and training has always had a sweet spot for me. I also was offered a internship training at a dog training business in west Michigan where I learned a lot about dog behavior and training methods which I used to develop my own training style. After six months I decided I wanted to go my own direction training dogs.
