Hello friends;  It is my pleasure to share with you my animal experiences and talents by way of my grooming profession.  I have been grooming dogs, cats and horses for 30 years now and still find pleasure and amusement every day with these wonderful creatures.
        I call myself a "Cat Whisperer" because I do specialize in grooming and handling cats.  They are especially good for me and settle for a bath or haircut quite willingly, even when it is not their idea.  I convince them that they are safe with me
and that this will only be for a little while.  I guarantee to them that they will go home feeling clean, comfortable and better than before. Of course I offer dogs the same deal, but cats need a little more coaxing and confidence to convince them that this procedure is safe.
        Now, as far as horses go, I have taken extensive studies to learn the art of trimming hooves and as a "Hoofcare
Specialist"  I can help a horse transition from shoes to natural barefootedness comfortably.  Horses were born to run and be free (and that includes free of iron on their hooves).  I have the most success with trimming horses that are living a natural lifestyle -- meaning they are turned out 24/7 with other horse buddies together.  I am also in the process of learning myofacial release on horses and as I progress, will share my knowledge with you and your horses.  This will involve the human/horse owner as well.
   
Along the path of life I am continually learning and improving my skills.  Recently my dog handling has taken a wonderful turn upwards.  I have been studying the "Dog Whisperer"  Cesar Millan.  His training involves dog psychology instead of the traditional school of dog training.  His method is so much in alignment with the horse training that I have been doing for many years now.  To understand behavior of an animal is a must when you have a true desire to help and change unwanted behavior.  Please visit Cesar's web site at www.dogpsychologycenter.com and learn more.
    So that's it in nutshell, or should I say "bathtub."  My intro is over and details will expand on this web site -- what are you waiting for:  go explore, the world awaits your paw prints (or hoof)!!!
