Cindy Wold, Owner

Cindy created A Dog’s Life because she knew that there was so much more to dog care and ownership than merely loving them. It is our job, as their owners, to respect them as the species they are and provide for all their needs; physical, mental and social. With a background in Biology, Nursing and Dog Training, Cindy has become an expert in bridging the gap between human and canine to foster the best family-dog relationship. Leading to this stage of her life has been a busy, rewarding journey.
