"I’ve known Scotti for many years. A confirmed continuing education junkie, she has been a student in several workshops I’ve taught or hosted. She’s TA’ed for me in many more and we’ve cooperated in numerous training-related projects throughout our friendship. Scotti is a natural born shaper and has experience training different species, from chickens to polar bears. As a dog breeder and trainer she excels, pioneering many innovative strategies for early puppyhood socialization."
