I have been active in the Doberman community for over ten years. I show actively in conformation shows, and have a few dogs training for agility and obedience events as well. I was also an active member of DARE (Doberman Assistance Rescue and Education) for three years, and offered my home for fostering some of the younger less fortunate Dobermans. I currently own five Dobes, two bitches and three dogs, and from time to time will have a foster dobe here. My foster's are always young dogs, usually one year or younger, they undergo basic obedience training and house breaking to aid in their search for their forever home.

The bitches are currently being shown, Logan ( Int. Ch. U-Gr. Ch. Wildfire Hot 'N Spicy Sharjet, CGC, WAC) and Hayden ( U-Ch. Wildfire FlashFrozen Sharjet), are both from my close friend Patience V. Sassone of Wildfire Dobermans. They were bred by Patience and co-bred by another close friend, Sharon Marinelli of Sharjet Dobermans.

One male is neutered and the other two are home maturing to prepare for their show careers. Kaiman (Kaiman's Mystical Warlock, CGC, TDI), is retired from active events due to illness and past injury, but enjoys being a licensed therapy dog. Titus (Logres Contucci) and Rush (Aquarius Designer Genes V Halo) are young dogs; home playing, attending shows on a limited basis. Titus was bred by our friends, Dr. and Mrs. Arthur Greenwood (Logres Farm), and Rush was bred by Jim Briley and Ron Babics of Aquarius Dobermans.

I am still very involved in educating myself about the breed and dog behavior in general. I attend seminars for dog development and handling techiniques regularly. Our dogs actively attend group training classes which allow them to be well socialized and allows for one on one time with each dog.
