"​A true animal lover at heart, my passion began early on in life. My various experiences involving horses, goats, dogs, and rabbits only led me to realize that I love working with dogs the most! At 11 years old, I started volunteering at a service dog organization, happily spending hours on end cleaning and caring for all of the resident dogs. My ultimate dream came true when I took home a potential service dog puppy to train for his future job. Over the next few years, I brought home many other working dogs, continuing their training and socialization. At age 13, I began a dog walking business and also got involved in fostering rescue dogs. Having the opportunity to personally work with many different kinds of dogs was extremely rewarding. Two years later, an opportunity came up to raise a future breeder pup for the service dog organization that I previously volunteered for. I am now enjoying showing, grooming, and gaining trick titles with a standard poodle named Miley. It has been quite an adventure with her thus far and I absolutely cannot wait for more!"
