Owner / Trainer

I've always had a love for animals. As a child, I played with & trained families' dogs. I have been reading about dogs since I was a child. As I got older, I started to show my dogs in the AKC sports. I've been invited to the National Obedience trial in Orlando, Florida, but unfortunately, I could not go. 
I volunteer my time as a 4H leader in Will County for the 4H Tailwaggers ( this is a dog program for Kids 8-18 years old)

One of my goals is to keep dogs out of shelters and in their forever homes.
I work with different rescues, and in my free time, I work with and train these dogs. It's good to educate myself, as things constantly change continuously. Training is more than just teaching the dogs, It also teaches the owners how to work with their dogs and learn to understand them. Teaching a dog is one of the most rewarding things an owner can do. As I repeatedly say in class, training is not just sitting, staying, or down. There are many different behaviors we teach here at All About The K-9. 

My staff and I look forward to working with you and your dog at All About The K-9
