About Us!
Sarah- From a very humble professional beginning as a certified dog trainer with Petco, to working with dogs that have severe fear and aggression issues, there isn’t much more to say other than “dogs are my life”. Through continued education and certification with the AKC, I can now finally say, I can help you with your dog.
I started training when I was 14 years old. I convinced my grandfather that he needed a puppy and that meant one very important thing, I had to help train it. Lady was the best girl, and she was absolutely my inspiration to go further into the field of training.
We now have 7 dogs, love to rescue and foster, but also have started up a breeding program of our own! We are very excited to put out some amazing GSDs, Labradors, and GSPs!
