My Childhood Story Revealed - Why I Do What I Do

In late 2019, I was contacted by a man whose story completely changed my mindset and brought clarity (ah-ha moment that lasted years) of who I am and why I am so compelled to ensure all dogs are treated as individuals, with dignity and respect, and that people have access to the skills and tools to make previously traumatized and unwanted dogs feel comfortable, loved, understood, and welcome. Close to this time, I was contacted by another man who enlightened me on my method, thus changing my professional direction and positioning.These two life and career changing events profoundly impacted me as a person and the influence of CCBT in the animal welfare industry. These stories have only been revealed twice - embedded into other shows, and never as stories unto themselves and on this level. These stories continue to impact me, as I continue to absorb and process the information. I appreciate your interest and genuine desire to help animals. As always, please reach out with any questions or concerns, and, if you like the episode, please share and/or provide a rating and review.Enjoy your learning journey!Thanks to the Jeff Mertick Band for their musical contribution.
