About Elizabeth

Hi! My name is Elizabeth but everyone calls me Libby! I am a 2023 graduate from Essex North Shore Agricultural and Technical School where I earned my diploma and certificate of occupational proficiency in companion animals. I currently attend SUNY Cobleskill in upstate New York and am majoring in Canine Training and Management. My work experience in the canine field starts at 16. I worked for a non-profit service dog organization called The Service Dog Project as a kennel attendant. The Service Dog Project bred, raised, and trained Great Danes to be mobility service dogs and were given to those in need free of charge. As a kennel attendant, I learned how to sanitize and clean kennel areas safely and efficiently properly. At 17 I started working as a bather at DOGSPA. I increased my breed identification skills, provided clients with breed-specific clips and trims, became familiar with breed-specific traits and personalities, and my canine body language identification skills increased.
