Sarah has only ever had two passions in life, and that's theatre and dogs. For 17 years she worked in theatre & events doing lighting but after the pandemic she decided to follow her other passion. Dogs have always been in her life, whether they were her own pets, a roommates, a friends or now, maybe even yours! Ever since her first dog Charlie, an English Cocker Spaniel, she has ensured dogs are always in her life. She trained Charlie from a puppy; standard obedience as well as a few tricks and is continuing her positive reinforcement training journey by learning to become a Trainer with When Hounds Fly. She has donated to local dog charities, attended Crufts (The World's Greatest Dog Show), assisted with rescue dogs at YVR and volunteered with the BC SPCA.
