Experience: 10 yrs
My dog Ruger was born deaf and mostly blind, and caring for him taught me patience, creativity, and compassion--especially with animals who have special needs. He's my constant reminder of how strong the bond between people and pets can be. I studied horse training at Feather River College, where the program focused on Natural Horsemanship--a method based on trust, respect, and communication rather than force. Those lessons apply to every animal I care for, from horses to dogs and cats. For nearly 15 years, I worked at a reputable vacation ranch as a Senior Wrangler, where I managed large herds, trained and rehabilitated animals, and worked closely with families. That experience taught me to balance strength and responsibility with warmth and fun.
