It all started when I hired a company to help me with my two Alaskan Malamutes as they were having some pretty serious fights. Over the two years that I worked with a Behaviour Consultant, I grew a passion for learning about these beautiful creatures. I worked hard with my dogs and I started researching dog behaviour on my own. When COVID hit, I used it as an opportunity to further my education and take a course that prepares individuals to write their Certified Professional Dog Training License Exam. Graduating at the top of my class in that program, I was hired by the company who provided the training to be an obedience consultant with them. Shortly after joining I lost my heart dog, Koda, to cancer. This hit me hard, but I knew I would not be where I was if it weren't for her and I had to push on. I decided to branch off on my own and start The Doggie Dame in memoriam of my beloved Koda. The day I opened my business, albeit scary, I knew I had made the right decision for myself and I knew Koda was so incredibly proud of me. I will continue Koda's legacy through every client I take on.
