From Brazil to the U.S., I quickly learned that communication is key. I thrived in programs like A.V.I.D. and M.E.S.A., enhancing my problem-solving and teamwork skills. I gained hands-on experience in Animal Husbandry and Veterinary Sciences with G.T.I. and F.F.A. Working with my uncle's mushing dogs taught me the importance of respect and teaching. Now, as a Canine Good Citizen Evaluator, I cherish the bond between pets and their owners. Of course, any relationship has its challenges, but you reap what you sow.

Research shows that pet parents not only live longer but also enjoy happier and healthier lives! Our animals reflect who we are, showcasing our capacity to nurture and communicate. Dedication and commitment are a small price to pay for a lifetime of unconditional love. After all, who doesn’t want a friend that brings the best out in them all while making their problems melt away?
