Hannah- Training Assistant
We first met Hannah when she contacted us for training for her dog Maggie and signed up for a board and train program. She was so committed to continuing the work that we had already started with Maggie.
When she applied for the kennel tech position it was an easy decision to say yes because she had already shown her skills with Maggie.
Quickly she moved up to her current position of Training Assistant and helps with dog field trips and preparing the dogs to go home to the real world.
When she is not working, Hannah likes to spend time with her dogs, Maggie, an Australian Shepherd/Cattle Dog mix, and Dexter an Australian Shepherd. going camping, and being creative with her many craft projects.
