Building the human-dog bond is a passion of mine. I have been lucky to share my world with multiple Rhodesian Ridgebacks (and 1 Border Terrier) for the past 22 years. Together we have explored, competed, enjoyed many successes, and learned from not a few failures. I find that I learn more from the failures, and they make the successes so much sweeter. So-I have lots of knowledge to share.

I am an active board member with the Northwest Rhodesian Ridgeback club. Recently I became the WA State Coordinator for Rhodesian Ridgeback Rescue, Inc. I enjoy any activity that allows me to spend time with my dogs-hiking, running, smelling the roses (gardening is another passion—my dogs dig holes alongside me).

My current pack and I compete in conformation, lure coursing, barn hunt, agility, rally, and trick dog.
