Store Leader, Kate and her winning team!

“We finished #2 in the company in Pet Training for 2020. I am so proud of my team. We fought hard and it came down to the last week of the year. Shout out to my absolutely amazing trainers Reba and Nicole and to Jolie who supports them on a daily basis. Our entire store contributed to this accomplishment but these ladies have created a culture of saving lives through training that is beyond

impressive. Their dedication

never wavered during this

unusual year."
