Shannon Coleman

Shannon has always had a true love for animals of all kinds. She has had horses, rabbits, fish, hamsters, guinea pigs, cats, and dogs & even salamanders! - she cannot remember a time in her life that she did not have a pet. (She even had a kitten in her dorm room in college!) Currently she shares her house with one really awesome roommate and 4 dogs, 5 cats, 2 hamsters, 2 guinea pigs and some fish!  

She has a Masters in Landscape Architecture and found that 95% of her clients had pets (mostly dogs) they ended up contacting her for help designing for or around the pets. Putting in fences, doggie doors, rearranging paths, planting pet friendly plants - that sort of thing. She began to see how these two careers really do go hand-in hand; she now calls herself a "landscape barkitect".

Shannon is an AKC registered Canine Good Citizen Evaluator and preforms all of our CGC tests. She shows her 7 year old Bichon, Cokie, in Rally where she just completed her RN (Rally Novice) title. She and Balynda recently rescued a Rat Terrier (Mazy) that they plan on making an agility dog!

Cokie wins big at her first show!
