Teaching has always been my most favorite part of working livestock. Whether it is teaching a young pup how to begin or helping handler's learn how to work with their dog. She strives to bring out your dog's natural talent and to allow you to gain the understanding needed to accomplish this.
Jean has been teaching & training for over 23 yrs. During that time she has worked with many traditional herding breeds like Australian Shepherds, Australian Cattle Dogs, Shelties, Collies, Belgian Tervurens, German Shepherds, Border Collie to Corgis. She has also worked with many non-traditional breeds as well - Rhodesian Ridgeback, Kerry Blue Terriers, Schnauzers, Rottweilers to Greater Swiss Mtn Dogs.
