Today, as I write the first of many post to come I sit here and think back on the journey which has brought me to this most rewarding place in my like. As many of you understand life is but a journey and sometimes takes a path that we did not necessarily start out on but are so grateful to be walking. As I walk this path I think about how lucky I am to have found what I am most passionate about while helping others with their struggles. I find comfort in and have always felt that my purpose in life is to help others. I feel strongly about being an advocate for those who cannot help themselves, one of the many reasons I volunteer and a local animal shelter. My journey began as a child when I was given my first dog. I was 7 years old and the connection I felt was like no other. From that day forward that connection has not only grown stronger but continues the strengthen every day. That strength has given me the courage, motivation and determination to find my way to you. Dogs, to many people are our friends, confidants, companions, life savers, therapists, partners(hunting) and yes to some our canine children. No matter what the reason for having them they do serve a purpose that no other can substitute. They can never be replaced, even when they are gone they are still in our hearts. Anyone who has ever lost a dog understands this and the affect that they will have on you that will last a lifetime. One of the most important and humane things that you can do for your dog is training. I believe that a balanced dog will bring happiness and harmony to your life. I will share my knowledge with you so that you too can have the most rewarding relationship possible with your dog.
