She deeply loved her dogs and spent many hours training them in Obedience and Agility.  Her Dobermans, Border Collies, and German Short-haired Pointers won many awards under her guidance.  She shared this special ability as she instructed numerous dog owners to train their dogs in Obedience and Agility, too.
