Amazing Mutts, a leader in California dog training, has gotten involved with the Bark for Life and is seeking people to join their team. The reason for their involvement has become personal.
In 2010, Nicole from Amazing Mutts received a call from a pair of owners who needed training for their Australian Shepherd. She was 5 months-old, and a real handful to work with. The owners were a young couple who had just purchased a new home. They were warm, caring, friendly people and Nicole was impressed by the love they had for their dog.
A few months after working with them, Nicole called them to check in, and to make sure that the training had stuck. The husband had been diagnosed with brain cancer, and their precious dog had died unexpectedly while he was recovering from surgery.
A few days later Nicole learned about the Bark for Life taking place in Norco, so she formed a team for the husband, Jeff. She also privately raised over $2,200 for the ACS! Fortunately, Jeff and his wife were able to attend this event along with their family, and they proudly walked along with the Amazing Mutts team.
Jeff is doing much better, but he's still fighting against cancer. The Amazing Mutts team is ready to do their part, and they want you to join them!
