Hi, I'm Carole. I have been training dogs in Conformation, Obedience and Field, (specicalizing in pet behavior) for the last 30 years and for the last 6 years established my own Company. I have spent years working with dogs and heavily involved with Rescue, fostering the more problematic dogs to give them an equal opportunity to find their "Forever Home". All the dogs know me as "Auntie!"

Unfortunately, like so many others, the Pandemic has taken a toll on my business which has caused me to give up my home and live with a friend and her husband temporarily.

My 88 year old Mother recently needed help and I used the last of my funds to go there to help her. On the way back, my Minivan started to act up with steering issues, and my brakes went out 41 miles from home - but I made it home. I have just heard from the Mechanic that it will take $2800-$3200 to fix.

I am a very proud person. I am not looking for a "hand-out" but rather a "hand-up!"

I am actively trying to rebuild my business and hopefully organizing permanent accommodation. Having the use of my van of course is an integral part of that as well as my continued efforts with rescue dogs.

I have always been a hard worker, and your kindness and generosity will certainly be paid forward in the canine world.

Thank you for your time.
