In some way I have been involved in the Pet Industry for the major part of my life.I have always had dogs and I also train and show my reining horses. I understand the importance of a well behaved pet, not only in the obedience sector, but also as a well adjusted family member. Having been trained as a Dog Obedience Instructor by Craig and Tracey Murray, I am looking forward to passing on to my clients the very best dog obedience has to offer!

I first met  Craig and Tracey  approximately 18 years ago when they  were conducting workshops and lectures for Aussie Pooch Mobile Hydrobath operators  and was extremely impressed with their training techniques.  I then  went on to train my own dogs and those of my  clients using their training methods. I am now fortunate enough to be one of Craig A. Murray’s  team members and have been trained to run obedience classes, clicker training courses, puppy classes and I also offer at home private consultations as well as in-kennel training.  Currently I am training my own scent detection and protection work dog, A Belgian shepherd called “Kali” and I am enjoying the challenge of training such a high level working dog.

I  have also been  trained by Craig as an odour detection dog handler and I am currently employed by Bio-Security  in the Queensland Fire Ant eradication programme. I deploy 2 of 7 Fire Ant Detection dogs which have been trained and maintained by Craig A. Murray to locate fire ants.  I really enjoy being  part of Craig and Tracey’s successful  dog training team!
