Gus and I met in upstate New York, where Gus had a Veterinary house call practice, and where I was working as a Veterinary Hospital Office Manager and Grooming professionally.  Gus was asked to cover the hospital while my boss took a much-needed vacation, and the rest, as they say, is history.

We are a "blended Kennel", (as opposed to a blended family).  Gus had lived with Danes as a child, and harbored a desire to own another Dane, and possibly start showing.  I had been in dogs since my teenage years, and had been competing in conformation and obedience with Cardigans since 1987.

Shortly after we were married in 1999, Gus and I decided that moving to Pennsylvania would give my children a better education and afford us better opportunities to do what we enjoyed most...show our dogs!

My children are now grown, and we currently share our home with our various dogs, four cats and a turtle named Spot.

We enjoy golf, gardening, travel and movies, along with our dog activities.  We are very active in our Church, the local all breed, obedience, and breed clubs, as well national breed clubs.  We enjoy entertaining fellow dog people on dog show weekends, and introducing them to the charm of the Lehigh Valley.

Gus is currently establishing a Veterinary House Call practice in the Lehigh Valley that caters to the needs of the Breeder/Exhibitor, and writing a book on the Giant Breeds.  I am working as a Retail Merchandiser, while building my own business; Canine Training Unlimited, to provide obedience instruction and conformation handling services.  I anticipate applying for my AKC judges license in obedience and Cardigan Welsh Corgi's within the next 3 years.
