She has lived in Scottsdale, Cave Creek, and Skull Valley before settling into Wickenburg.  She is an avid and competitive horsewoman, showing in both reining and team roping When not riding you will most certainly find her on the golf course or the driving range.

Debbie is originally from Minnesota, but has been calling Arizona her home for more than 20 years.  She has wanted to work with animals in some capacity since she was a child.  After her first career as a dispatcher, she started in the animal industry by working as a veterinary technician in 2001.  In 2008, she put her knowledge and experience to the test and became a Certified Veterinary Technician. She has also worked by rehabilitating various dogs with behavior issues, and finding them homes.  Debbie enjoys making a positive difference in the lives of animals that don’t have someone to call their own.

Terry Bradarich is new to the Wickenburg, Arizona area. She is loving the beauty of the desert and the kind hospitality of the people.  She grew up in Utah and after graduating from Utah State University moved to Southern California. Animals were always a part of her family. The family always consisted of two Schnauzers, and for a time a gecko lizard. When in California you could find her and her two boys biking, at the pool or at the beach. She will miss the ocean, but is looking forward to learning how to play golf. Otherwise, you will find her with a paintbrush in her hand creating her next art piece.

Kirstein grew up as an Air Force "brat" and moved frequently from base to base in Texas, Wyoming, California, Oregon, Arkansas, Oklahoma, and now Arizona, to name a few.  Life on base offered her the opportunity to start Military k9 training and fostering the Military dogs!  One of her fondest memories is training a Belgian Malinois, Pippen, who passed extensive testing for the Military and served in war. Pippen, now a fallen soldier, rests on the mantle of her home. In her free time, Kirstein enjoys professionally competing in racing UTV's. Kirstein aspires to be a Veterinarian and enjoys being with dogs and cats.  Her fur-babies to snuggle at home are "Ozzie", an Australian Heeler Mix,  "Marley", a lab mix, and "Gingie" her cat, pictured with her above.  

  Anne is my name, hair is my game. At 9 years old, my Mom brought home a poodle puppy. He grew and grew and GREW. That's when we learned what a Standard was! The rest is history, as they say.  Years have passed and many beauties later, my husband and my last standard poodle came to Wickenburg. I have trained dogs for hunting, service work, show ring, therapy, and was owner/operator of an all breed grooming/retail store in Washington state for 15 years.  My own dogs hunted mushrooms with me, went fishing with us, and traveled 8 states before settling down. Hope to meet you!
