Karrie is a certified Pet First Aid Instructor, who has been teaching Pet First Aid for 5 years; I also teach obedience classes with Gas City Dog Club.
Prior to teaching Pet First Aid and Obedience training I worked in the Medical Field as an AHT for 5 years, and an EMT for 20 years, volunteered with St John Ambulance for 4 years and Medicine Hat Ambulance Volunteer for 2 years.
I have owned and worked with German Shepherds for 42 years, which includes training for obedience, breeding and trialing in obedience. I received my first German Shepherd at the age of 10 from the Calgary City Police, who taught me how to groom, train and show dogs.
