Last year, my husband and I left our jobs as librarians at a university to start the Blue mountains Dog Training Center. Our friends thought we were totally crazy! But they’ve been convinced of that ever since we got our first dog. Five years ago, we found Rowdy next to the highway. We took him home because we were afraid he would be killed. He’s big, more than 50 kgs, and we knew he needed a lot of training. We learned as much as we could, and then we started training other people’s dogs, and we realized that working with dogs was a lot nicer than working with people. We have a very important goal for our business. We want to make the world a better place –for dogs!- Tasha Beckworth.
