OWNER
Summary

Since the age of fourteen, I have dedicated my life and career to the care, conditioning, competitive sport, and grooming of dogs. Although I would like to continue with my passion to some degree; in May 2012, I underwent a spinal fusion, and I am no longer able to groom dogs for a living. Because of this, I am currently looking for a receptionist job in a field that I am already very familiar with. I am a highly motivated person, and worked independently for over six years at my last job.  

Highlights
  • Experience answering phones in a Veterinary Office.
  • Familiar with IDEXX and Cornerstone software.

 

 

  • Over 16 years of experience in training dogs.
  • Can teach grooming lessons / quality control.
Experience
01/1999 - Current
American Society For The Prevention Of Cruelty To Animals - Asheville , NCOwner
  • At the age of fourteen, I began competing with my Alaskan Malamutes in American Kennel Club sanctioned dog shows.
  • With this choice of career, it made me a very competitive groomer.
  • I am a breeder of Alaskan Malamutes.
  • I have also trained my dogs in agility, obedience, conformation, and weight pull events.
01/2000 - 01/2007
Canine Design - City , STATEProfessional Pet Groomer
  • I began working and grooming my own dogs at this business in 2000, at the age of fifteen.
  • I was hired in as a dog bather, to be trained on the job as a dog groomer.
  • I was employed here as I attended high school, and continued while I pursued college.
  • I was hired in as a full time groomer in 2004 and worked here for many years before deciding to independently groom at Thornwood Veterinary Clinic.
  • At the end of 2011, I returned shortly to Canine Design to help with fill-in work, but did not return because of my back injury.

 

03/2005 - 08/2005
Carlos J. Puig "Handling With Style" - City , STATEProfessional Dog Show Handler's Assistant / Groomer
  • After about six years of experience showing dogs on my own, I decided to further my knowledge by working for one of the Nation's "Top" dog show handlers.
  • Here, I learned different training methods, as well as perfecting the art of grooming and handling some of the top dogs in the country.
  • While traveling four-to-five days a week, my training included fault grooming, and the specifics of "AKC Standardized" trimming.
  • While living at the kennel, I was also responsible for the care and conditioning of approximately forty dogs at any given time.

 

01/2006 - 01/2012
Mary Beecher & Craig Padgett "Hobby Hill Kennels" - City , STATEAssistant to Professional Dog Show Handlers / Groomer
  • During the time I worked for Carlos, I was introduced to Mary Beecher and Craig Padgett who specialized in handling terriers.
  • Wanting to further my education once again, I decided to move back and learn the art of hand stripping, since hand stripping is much more difficult and specialized than grooming other breeds.
  • I worked for Mary and Craig until they went out of business in 2012.
10/2007 - 01/2012
Thornwood Veterinary Clinic & Kennel - City , STATEGrooming, Kennel Tech, Veterinary Assistant
  • Immediately after leaving my job at Canine and Feline Design, I was hired in at Thornwood Veterinary Clinic in Ada, Michigan.
  • Along with making my own hours working on commission, I was in charge of gaining my own clients for grooming.
  • While starting my new business, I also worked in the boarding kennel, and as an assistant/tech to the Veterinarians.
  • After over five years of gaining exceptional clients, a busy schedule, and great career.I am unfortunately no longer able to groom dogs because of a spinal fusion I had in May 2012.
