About Your Trainer

My name is Shelley and here is a little information about me! I am 28 years old and love animals! I started out working for Petland when I was 16 and have worked with animals since then. Ever since I was a little kid I wanted to be a Veterinarian. I wanted to help animals at a very young age. So, when I began college, I majored in Biology with the plans of continuing on to Vet school. I got involved with obedience training 5 years ago and decided to change my major in college to Psychology and apply what I learned to animals and animal behavior. There is so much satisfaction and pleasure in educating dog owners on the way their dog communicates with them. I thoroughly enjoy strengthening the human/animal bond by teaching people how to understand their pets and in return- having a behaved member of the family!
