My training experience started in 1982, training my German Shepherd Dog, Rottweiler, and Yorkshire Terrier in Germany.  I have trained and competed with my dogs in Conformation, Obedience, Herding, Agility, and K9 Nose Work, since 2006 I manage the Daycare Program at WagginTails Junction in Manassas, VA.

I am an AKC CGC Evaluator,  AKC Scent Work Judge, Reiki Practioner,  Certified Nose Work Instructor, and a Member of the Association of Professional Dog Trainers.

I teach Scent Work Foundation Classes ( Intro to Scent Work, Intro to Odor, Continuing Odor) and Trial Prep Classes and Competition-Style Scent Work Classes.
