Carol Voelker
Started in Agility in 1993, with my first rescue, Denizen, a Golden/German Shepherd mix. With in 2 years I had 4 rescues – Denizen, PJ (Border Collie/ Mix), Myra (Border Collie Mix), and Chetyre (Pomeranian). I added Nystka, a Sheltie/Heeler/Border Collie mix in 1998, Kynetic a Border Collie in 2002, Zyme a BC/Heeler Cross in 2007 and Gyza a Border Collie in 2009. I started teaching agility in 1995. I like agility’s positive training and the relationship that you develop with your dog. I became an USDAA Judge in 1997 and an AKC judge a few years after that.
