As pretty evident my passion and main focus are pets. My experience having worked for  an AAHA approved animal hospital  has enriched my knowledge and I enjoy sharing tips and insights concerning pets and their well being.

The veterinarians liked to call me ''their shadow'' because I was always around them trying to help as much as I could. I was always eager on learning about dog health and cat health, and I had this irresistible habit of peeking in charts to see what the vet's diagnosis was!

  I also have worked answering pet health related questions for owners of sick pets, and still as of today I offer consultations about pet health topics on a pet website. 

My home is full of books about pet health and pet behavior books. If you have any questions about pet health or behavioral problems feel free to ask!

 I have published several pet health related articles on the web as a freelancer (I have over 1000 at this time) and am currently putting my savings aside to become a certified veterinarian technician and dog trainer.

My life time ambition was to become a veterinarian, but the costs have kept away. I am possibly planning to travel to Europe some time soon where college is much more affordable.

I have trained my dogs myself and for a few people with dogs with behavior issues. I enjoy training using words sparingly and focusing more on body posture and gestures. I truly believe in the possiblity of rehabilitating dogs even when old and with  a long time history of behavioral issues.  I love learning and never get tired of educated myself on a variety of dog behavioral topics.

I love Turi Rugaas, she has offered so many great tips in her book about calming signals in dogs. I also enjoy books about wolf pack behavior.

I have volunteered to foster sick pets for my local shelter, bring them back to health and rehabilitate these poor beings. It is a very rewarding experience especially when you find out they have been adopted on Petfinder.com!

In 2003, I also worked for two years as a pharmacy technician for a local drug store. I also am medical office assistant certified and medical terminology certified.

I currently own two Rottweilers and two kittens. They get along greatly since they were raised to gether. I am a fan of NILIF training and started it since my dogs were 8 week old puppies. 

I am advocate for the Rottweiiler breed and try my best in educating people about this breed. Responsible ownership is a must in my opinion with these strong yet, loving dogs and I cannot emphasize enough that this is not a breed for everyone.

 I hope you find my articles helpful and you are welcome to leave feedback and even better become my fan!
