It is our passion to share all that we have and will continue to learn with anyone who asks. The shelters are too full of perfectly capable dogs that were not given the chance they deserve, either by lack of knowledge, lack of adequate knowledge or time for proper care, or neglect on the owner’s part. There have also been to many children, and adults for that matter, that have suffered from dog bites. We want to be a valuable part of the solution to help prevent shelter admissions and dog bites. We care about both people and dogs and the best for all involved.
Teaching people and dogs without intimidation or pain and with plenty to gain.
