Sally has dived into dog training as a second career, after 35 years in academia facilitating psychotherapists’ development.

Having returned to school herself, Sally graduated with a Certificate of Training and Counseling (CTC) with the Academy of Dog Trainers. Sally is an AKC CGC/Puppy STAR Approved Evaluator.
An avid dog lover from an early age, this new direction brings her full circle from childhood manners classes with her first Wire Fox Terrier to her current crew – Bean the Jack Russell and (Crazy) Daizy, a Smooth Fox Terrier. Sally embraces her terrier bias but enjoys working with all kinds of dogs. She has also volunteered at the no-kill animal shelter in Carrollton, Operation Kindness. At Wiggle Butt Academy, Sally currently trains manners, puppy basics, teaches group classes, and is beginning work with anxious/reactive dogs.
Sally values collaborative approaches to working with others, both human and canine. She enjoys helping both dogs and people live more joyful, less stressful lives together.
