I am part of Cairn Terrier Rescue and present agility demonstrations with my dogs, sharing with students and adults how to use positive reinforcement to train animals. I believe that loving your dog is only the beginning of a great relationship. Dogs also need quality food and water, safety, lots of exercise, and training so they can live well."
