Sam - Tiny Town

 

 

Hello! My name is Sam, and I'm a proud team member of Tiny Town! But wait, that's not all—I'm also lucky enough to spend my time in the Hound Lounge as well! Can you guess what my absolute favorite thing is? Well, it's no secret—I absolutely, positively, cannot resist the charm of dogs! They've completely captured my heart! I've been working in this doggie paradise for a woof-tastic two years now, and every day is filled with endless wagging tails and wet nose boops. It's pure puppy bliss!

Mike

 

Meet Mike! Mike joined the Marines in 2016, fostering and training bully breeds in North Carolina by 2017. After an honorable discharge in 2020, I pursued animal science in college and started a mentorship in dog training. In 2021, I became a Professional dog trainer in Connecticut, then moved to Arkansas in 2022. Under a Tom Rose scholar, I specialized in behavior modification and trained under a PSA judge for protection sports. With 250+ dogs trained in advanced obedience, 14 service dogs, and involvement in police K9 training, I've also deployed therapy dogs and excelled in various disciplines such as tracking, protection, scent detection, agility, and hunting. I actively contribute to dog sports clubs as a Decoy, continually enhancing my skills and expertise in the field.

I'm Ref Judy and I've been taking care of little doggos here at AU since October 2021 - and let me tell you, I absolutely love it!
