When she’s not training, you can find Bailey riding through the canyons on her Harley motorcycle, visiting parks with her 7-year-old boxer, Luna, and strolling local farmers markets. Bailey has a passion for dog training and a soft spot for service dog training. She loves being able to track the growth of dog to handler relationships and seeing the joy of dog training enter homes making them less stressful, happier and more enjoyable places to be for the dog and human alike.

MELANIE BLACKBURN

And while she has experience with an array of disabilities, the majority of her career has been spent teaching children with Autism and she still loves to teach.
