For over 40 years, Lynn has had man’s best friend at her side, first in the show arena and now as a trainer and educator.

 

Although Lynn began her college career as a psychology student, she ended up earning a Bachelor of Science in Commerce from DePaul University. She also attended Northeastern Illinois University for an Early Child Education teaching certificate.

 

Even though Lynn completed the necessary work for certification, when she got an offer to train dogs she took it. It was then that Lynn discovered she loved working with people and their dogs much better than she liked competing with her own dogs.

 

In 2003, Lynn created her private practice CompanionAbility, LLC. Lynn is a member of the Association of Pet Dog Trainers. She is a Certified Professional Dog Trainer, as well as an American Kennel Club, Canine Good Citizenship evaluator. She is also a behavior consultant for AnimalSense Canine Training & Behavior.

 

Lynn has been a part of CanineLink since our inception back in 2007. From a shared passion for the dog training industry, Lynn has helped develop many integral parts of the CanineLink Training and Behavior Academy. Lynn is delighted and very proud to be such a giant part of CanineLink, its development, students and culture.
