Introducing Dawgs in Motion Training Team:

her certification from the Animal Behavior College’s (ABC) course for dog

Andrew has a partner, Drew, a Golden Retriever that works with him during his

the rabbit. Andrew has been part of the
Dawgs in Motion family since December 2010. He is the Hunting/Retrieving
trainer along with teaching Obedience and the in-home training classes.
He says he loves every aspect of Dawgs in Motion and what he is able to do
for the dogs. Dogs are Andrew’s true passion in life. He really likes observing
dog behavior and putting all the pieces together to figure out what is going on and
what to do to fix the situations. Other interests that he has are hunting, camping,
fishing, and spending time with his family. His favorite training class is the
Hunting/Retrieving class. Andrew and Drew together have won many awards in
Hunting field trials. They are presently working and preparing for another
competition that is coming up very soon.

Katy Paape has been teaching Agility at Dawgs in Motion for greater than 1
year. She really loves agility and has learned well under Kathi Schwengel. Katy

Kathi Schwengel has owned some sort of herding dog or herding dog cross
since she was a child and wanted to own a dog just like Lassie. In the late ‘80’s
she found Australian Shepherds and has had them ever since. Over the years,
Kathi has trained and trained her dogs in herding, confirmation, obedience, and
agility and has handled dogs for other people as well. She has been helping
people train their dogs for over ten years. Kathi takes a positive and fun
approach to teaching agility, building on a solid foundation of basic skills and
simple games to motivate and build confidence in even the most cautious dog.
