Dog Journey: Four Months Non-Stop Training and Shows

I began my externship to become a certified dog trainer. I was so excited! Been busy working at class and volunteer work to improve my skills and help dogs in need of a home. Been loving it. At times it has been challenging, but with the help of my family and friends, I'm more motivate to get through the challenges. I've learn so much on the field and also has driven me to look in deeper about dogs. My methods are always revolving and learning new ways to build relationships and leadership with dogs. It has been an amazing journey so far and can't wait to see where it will take me! Kiyo has been my companion and teacher since the beginning, so I had to get her involve with my journey to learn together. I take her to class to practice obedience with her and strengthen our bond. Wish I had pictures of our work....

Kuma has grow so much since November. He's now taller than Kiyo and weighs about 25lbs! A big boy!!! More than anyone thought he would be. But so handsome! We started showing him the beginning of January and haven't stop since. Anytime we have a chance to put him in a show, he is in it. It's been crazy!!! Both Kuma and I are enjoying our time in the ring and meeting friends and new people and dogs every show. This past show, we finally won and got some points on him!!! We were so excited!!! It was a great day. \( ^ . ^ )/
