In Summary, I have been working with dogs for many years. My own dog has achieved her CGC, Urban CGC, Community Canine and multiple trick titles. I have done many private sessions and attended seminars through the German Shepherd Dog Club of Minneapolis St. Paul to further my training. I helped run and at one point I was one of the partners in the GSD monthly workshops that help dogs in many different ways. By running an organization that also helps dogs in need, I do a lot of training with them as well. I have worked and studied under Denise Hansen at Hansen Kennels to grow my knowledge of other breeds.

I run a 501c3 organization called Skylar's Scholarships.  This organization helps dogs that are in need of medical attention, training and rescuing.  I started this organization in 2019 after being with another rescue group.  I saw a need for dogs with medical problems and seeing that my own dog is a medical dog (she has IBD) I wanted to help others who were going through medical difficulties.  This includes animals in other rescue organizations and some families that need extra support.
