Theresa was the founder of People for Pitbulls, an education based rescue for maligned breeds and has organized and participated in public protests against breed specific legislation for all dogs.

Over the years Theresa has trained her dogs for flyball, scent work, agility, skijoring and some disc work. She has also participated in therapy work within the mental health community.

More recently Theresa has had the opportunity to provide coaching and training for other small businesses in the pet industry, participated in a safety course for kids and dogs and has written about children and grieving the loss of family pets.

Theresa’s love of animals has been a lifelong passion starting with her dog walking and dog marriage business back when she was just a child. Together with her youngest daughter and her son, Theresa is now experiencing the joy of horses.
