More About the Author

I have been an author for many years. My first publication was a children's short story which was published in 1970. More recently I won the prestigious Maxwell award from the Dog Writers Association of America and awards from the National League of American Pen Women. I have developed two programs for students who want to become dog trainers and canine behavior consultants at Kutztown University, where I teach. I am the former vice president of the International Association of Animal Behavior Consultants and have been a dog and cat behavior consultant for many years. Please check out my web site for articles that will interest pet loves and writers. I am a member, and on the advisory committee of the National Search Dog Alliance. My husband and I have over 25 years of volunteer service managing Canine Search and Rescue units and training SAR dogs. We are both certified as Search Managers and Incident Commanders. I also formed the American Beauceron Club and was instrumental in introducing this breed of dog to the United States. I trained the first Beauceron and Border Collie for search and rescue. I am a senior conformation judge with the United Kennel Club. My latest book, God's Creatures: A Biblical View of Animals combines my two lifelong passions, animals and Theology. I have trained the first dogs in the United States to detect toxic mold and hold a patent on the use and training of these dogs. I love to write both fiction and non-fiction. I am currently working on a book of humorous short stories and another serious book about an aspect of the Holocaust that has not previously been researched. I have a wonderful grandson who will be one year old August, 2009. I am proud to say that my son served in the Marines in Iraq. I like old cars, and my husband and I have a 1954 Dodge M37 military vehicle. I would love to get a 1950's Jeepster.
