I found K9 Academy through a Bing search. My name is Deborah. I am 55 and live in the mountains of NC on a wolf sanctuary. My job is to help raise funds for our wolves. I have two furbabies of my own. Tala is a 9 year old wolf dog. She is a mix between wolf, malamute and shepherd. Sir Ulrich Von Lichtenstein, is a 4 year old boxer/pit/shepherd mix. He weighs about 50 pounds and Tala weighs around 125 pounds. These dogs are my children and their love keeps me sane. I have RA and have had several joint replacements...knees, hip and foot. My fur kids do a lot towards helping to relieving my pain and help with depression. Glad to have found you guys!
