Angela’s lifelong love for dogs has shaped her career and dedication to canine care. In 2004, her passion for training emerged when she entered her first dock-diving competition with her Chocolate Lab, Nestle. Soon after, Angela became a charter member and the first President of the Keystone DockDogs Club, where she empowered handlers and discovered her own potential as a professional trainer. Angela has also trained dogs in other canine sports, including disc, weight pull, tracking, and agility.

With years of experience as a middle school physical education teacher and track and field coach, Angela expanded her expertise by becoming a Certified Canine Fitness Trainer through the University of Tennessee. This transition enriched her understanding of canine behavior and solidified her role as a highly skilled trainer.

Angela applies her advanced skills as part of the Mason Dixon K9 Family, while also enjoying the outdoors and engaging in canine sports. Her passion, experience, and commitment make her an invaluable asset to both dogs and their owners.
