About the Author

I live just out of town in a beautiful area with my husband, 2 dogs and 3 cats, in a "bushveld" area near Kruger National Park. I'm very interested in how businesses work, and am planning to do more bookkeeping consulting work in the near future. In my spare time I give the puppy classes for Lowveld Dog Training, private dog training lessons, and spend as much time as possible furthering the training of my own dog: Shadow. At present we are working on her tracking skills for possible search and rescue work in the future.
