Accomplishments

The trainer, Kimberly Dillon, was inspired to become a trainer after successfully working with her own dogs who developed behavior problems following a house fire. She pursued her studies with Animal Behavior College and received mentorship from Rhoda Tucker of Park Avenue Pups and Jean Nohle of Perfect Paws Pet Training. Kimberly and her Bernese Mountain Dog, Banjo, achieved the status of a Therapy Dog Team.
