Kerry set up Topdog Training with Rob back in 2003 but no longer works full time in the business. However, she still has a great interest in Topdog, looking after the administration and accounts and stepping in for Rob on occasions when he needs to train his own dog in a class environment. Kerry’s dogs are Bowie, an 11 year old Tibetan Terrier male, Panda, a 2 year old Australian Shepherd bitch and she will soon be getting a Miniature Poodle puppy for Agility which she is very much looking forward to! |
