Brenda and Kelly are a mother-daughter team that has enjoyed showing together for many years.

Brenda has been training and exhibiting dogs for over 20 years. In addition to managing a veterinary clinic, she owns her own in-home dog training business, is a CPDT-KA certified trainer and teaches training classes through the local Park District, a local community center, and through a private boarding kennel. Brenda has handled dogs in various breeds to obedience titles, conformation titles, rally obedience titles, group placements, top twenty rankings, and more. She is also working towards titling a Pug in the emerging sport of "canine nosework"!

Kelly was born into the dog show world and continues to make it her home. She exhibited her first dog at 5 years old, and began exhibiting dogs regularly at the age of 7. Entering Junior Showmanship at age 10, Kelly was a top Junior Handler, ranked as #1 Pug Junior for several years, as well as earning multiple state and regional titles all while succeeding academically. Through her later years of Junior Showmanship and following "aging out", Kelly has gained quite a bit of knowledge of grooming and handling by working for various professional handlers. She, too, has campaigned dogs in many breeds to conformation titles, group placements, and rankings.

Without the efforts and help of Reilly, Riley, and Danielle (page coming soon!) our job as handlers would be that much more difficult. Their hard work and desire to learn keeps the set-up running smoothly.

First and foremost is the health and safety of the dogs in our care. We believe that dogs should have a positive experience in the ring, and strive to insure that the dogs we show continue to enjoy being in the ring.
