SERVICES

JUDGING: Over the years of competing I have had the opportunity to scribe for some amazing competitors/judges.  I loved getting to work with them, learning how they would analyze the work the handler and dog were doing.  I have enjoyed my first judging experiences and look forward to future opportunities. I strive to be consistent with point deductions from the first to last run, taking into consideration the differences in breed working styles, level of skill, and other elements that can come into play.

SECRETARY: I am no stranger to paperwork with 30 years of working in the field of special education.  Upon retiring, I began managing the trial paperwork ​for some local trials.  I would be happy to help provide the level of services you may need for your trial, from processing entries, creating run orders, to recoding and sending in results.  Fees will vary according to the venue, length / location of trial and amount of work time involved.

LESSONS: While on this path, I have been  fortunate to have worked with  some amazing people. The first trainers I worked with, gave me the opportunity to work with newcomers to the sport.  I benefited  by getting exposer to a wide variety of working breeds besides border collies.  It is important to encourage new handlers as they begin their adventure in this sport.
