Biographical Note:
Lynn Guelzow begged her way into her first job at the age of nine at her neighbor's boarding, grooming, and training kennel. This began a lifelong love of and fascination with dogs of all kinds. She trained dogs in obedience through 4-H as a kid and continued as an adult. Lynn has worked with dogs her entire life, from a small Jack Russell Terrier to a Great Dane mix. Her household has welcomed purebreds and mixed breeds. She's worked with rescue groups and fostered dogs and puppies. Lynn's home in Connecticut is a menagerie consisting of two dogs, a cat, and two horses--all of whom have learned to become happy family members through positive, consistent training.
