My interest in obedience started as a teen with the family pet Pomeranian. We joined a dog training club and the instructor saw the potential in the Pom, and took me “under her wing.” We hit the “dog show road” and never looked back. Poms stayed as my sister’s breed and I ventured into something a little larger, the Shetland Sheepdog. Pyro (pictured) is my 10th sheltie and hope to soon be my 8th UD. Pyro is my first Grand Champion, owner handled all the way. Last fall he completed his RAE and we hope to add Agility this year, as soon as he learns to hit the contacts properly.
I am a life member of Fox Valley DTC in St. Charles, IL where I am an Assistant Director of Training and teach a focus, handling class for people showing in obedience and/or rally. I have also taught and judged 4-H shows.
I began judging in 2010 after playing judge at a “gazillion” matches which I still do on occasion.
I judged the Belgian Malinois National in Nebraska in 2015 and I thank you for the honor and privilege of again judging your wonderful dogs in Wisconsin.
