Masa has been surrounded by animals, especially dogs, her whole life. She has always wanted to pursue a future working with animals. Originally interested in becoming a veterinary professional, she jumped at the chance to complete her co-op placement at Dog Dayz and found her passion. She especially loves large and medium sized, high energy, working breeds. She has first-hand experience with raising and training Australian Shepherd‘s and currently her Border Collie. Masa hopes to gain more experience with dog training in her future. She firmly believes trained, socialized, and exercised dogs are the key to a happy family. To some people dogs are pets but to Masa they are always family. Dogs enrich our lives as much as we enrich theirs.
