Passionate. Patient. Persistent. Pet-lover. These are just a few of the characteristics that describe my style. I know each animal is different, and I’ll work with yours to give them guidance that is tailored to their needs.  I have developed a very special reputation with my customers and their owners. Dogs, and many other animals, are social animals, who enjoy love and family life.
