My husband and I are long time dog lovers. There isn’t a dog that passes by that we don’t greet. After a 20 plus year career in sales and traveling the country, it was time for me to pursue a personal passion. Although I am a first-time puppy raiser, I knew that my love for dogs, my nurturing nature and my love for helping people were key ingredients for me to join forces with Canine Companions for Independence. I did a lot of research and instantly fell in love with the mission of Canine Companions. Having the opportunity to meet the great community of puppy raisers within the Northern Ohio Chapter of Canine Companions was the icing on the cake. I was hooked instantly.

My husband and I enjoy every minute with Schumann. He has touched our lives more than we could ever have imagined. The journey has only just begun...
