I have taken several classes through AKC including ABC’s of Dog Breeding, Breeding Systems, Pedigree, Genetics Part 1 & 2, Nutritional Influences on Reproduction, Whelping and Medical Intervention, and AKC Breeding Basics.

Classes I have taken through ABI include Canine Health and Nutrition, Canine Behavior and Enrichment, Canine Training, The Human Animal Bond, Therapy-Dog Training, and Working with People and Animals.
