Lori Timberlake

 

Lori is passionate about strengthening the bond between owners and their pets. She is thrilled that she can devote herself to teaching Nose Work and Parkour classes, both in person and virtually. She is also dedicated to expanding both of these sports in Western New York which is why she is so involved with the National Association of Canine Scent Work and International Dog Parkour Association. She hopes Dog Parkour becomes as popular as Nose Work has in this community!

DJ Rehberg has had a lifelong passion for dogs, especially Siberian Huskies. In early 2016, while seeking an activity to improve and strengthen the bond between him and his Siberian Husky, Sylvie, he discovered the sport of Nose Work.

Over the years, DJ Rehberg has attended several classes, seminars, and online courses. He has also attended Nose Work camps where he was able to learn from several of the premiere Nose Work instructors from across the country.

CPDT-KA, CNWI

​

Kristen became involved in the world of dog sports after adopting an energetic and reactive little guy that needed to stay busy! They started out in agility, dock jumping, and barn hunt, where she first learned about scent related sports; and then she discovered nose work after adopting a fearful little girl. Now she does Nose Work with three (all very different) dogs! She loves how fun and helpful the sport of Nose Work can be for dogs that struggle with fear or reactivity (and every dog in between); and how great a sport it is for owners new to dog sports, too!

​

Kristen owns Dogology WNY. Her certifcations include CNWI, Certified Professional Dog Trainer (Knowledge Assessed) with the Certification Council for Professional Dog Trainers;  Accredited Dog Trainer with the International Association of Animal Behavior Consultants; and Certified Family Dog Mediator. She has completed continuing education in working with dogs with aggression, reactivity, fear, and is currently enrolled in Julie Naismith's Certified Separation Anxiety Pro Behavior Consultant Program. Kristen also works part time in the healthcare field as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor.
