About Nancy:
Nancy Reyes has been a professional dog trainer for the past 25 years. She began her love affair with animals when she was very young. Over the years she found that she enjoyed training dogs and learning more about animal behavior.

She has provided training and evaluation assistance as well as fostering in her home. She has even rescued a dog or two or six. Nancy conducts training workshops for volunteers from As Good As Gold and various other rescues groups and shelters at various locations in the Chicago suburbs.
