She has competed with 12 dogs and has titles in Obedience (Canadian & American), Rally, Herding and Agility.

She has had training with many of the top behaviorists in the country. And the behavioral history she developed and uses for her own behavioral counseling was selected for use in a national training publication.

Her international webinars, From Spoons to Dumbbells: It’s all fun and games and Learn & Master the Drop on Recall…it’s really just fun and games!!!, have been enjoyed by listeners as far away as China and England.
