Colorado Pet Pro Former Vet Tech with 25 + years of professional animal care experience. Pet First Aid/CPR certified. Hello Highlands Ranch!

Welcome to my page :)

A little about me: I come from a long line of animal lovers, beginning my own journey in animal husbandry at the age of 9 with 4-H. I continued working with horses and various farm animals throughout high school, and landed my first veterinary job in my early twenties. I worked both "front and back of house" at various clinics for 15 years, honing my skills and passion for t

ech work. During this time I fostered and found homes for over 200 dogs, cats, and kittens. Many of whom had severe medical issues that needed to be addressed prior to re-homing. In 2016, I began attending Heritage College to get my official Vet Tech license. Sadly, the college went bankrupt and closed it's doors before I could graduate. At this time, I met and married my husband, then made the decision to join him overseas (former USMC). While in Okinawa, I participated in several TNR (Trap/Neuter/Release) programs, and continued fostering/pet sitting as best I could with a new baby. Long story short, we're back in the states and through with military life! Now a SAHM, I'm ready to get back to work on a regular basis. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members in the near future!

We love our animals so much, but the WAY we show that love, can sometimes produce unwanted, even detrimental results/behaviors. Remember, “discipline equals freedom.” A well trained/balanced dog can be taken anywhere! And when you have a dog that can be taken anywhere, life is 100X better!

•Pet your dog, all the time
•Talk to your dog, all the time
•Allow your dog to follow you, all the time
•Allow your dog to be on your lap or laying on your feet, all the time
•Pet, soothe, comfort your dog when it whines or barks for attention...or is simply anxious
•Allow your dog to demand affection/interactions
•Be emotionally dependent on your dog to the point that unhealthy dependency and interactions are no longer noticed
•Allow your dog to do whatever it wants, whenever it wants—aka, provide no structure, rules, or accountability
•Foster an environment of chaos, stress, and anxiety
•Refuse to train and pattern calmness
•Refuse to crate train your dog
•Refuse to correct your dog when inappropriate behavior occurs
•Refuse to train your dog how to be independent/alone by using a “Place” command, “Downstay, and/or “away” time in the crate
•Let your dog out of the crate when it whines or barks
•Avoid training or anything that makes your dog temporarily uncomfortable or unhappy—in other words, cater to your dog’s every desire/need, designing your life around your dog, rather than having your dog fit into yours
•And many, many more...

Basically, baby, soothe, allow, enable, disable, lean on, omit teaching necessary life skills, prioritize what feels good for you rather than what does good for your dog, and through this master plan of leadership-free chaos, and systematic cultivation of creating a toxic dependency between dog and human...you’ll ensure that when you leave, your dog will be a true emotional mess, because you haven’t prepared them to be calm, obedient, strong, resilient, robust, independent, and alone.
