During that time I also managed to raise 1 AKC Confirmation Champion Cocker Spaniel and I rescued and rehabilitated another Cocker Spaniel saving him from the grim reaper.

I have been active in animal husbandry, and raising k9s’ since childhood. Currently, I am focused on upping my game in working dog education in protection, scent, service and rescue with the levels of training and teaching progressions involved.
