BIO:
If you’ve ever been to AK9C then you’ve more than likely seen Amber running around Ak9c like a small tornado with a border collie following along behind her. After attending Colorado State University and the University of New Hampshire majoring both in Animal Science and Veterinary Medicine, Amber received her Bachelor of Science Degree in Pre-Veterinary Medicine in 2003. As a PCSA Certified Advanced Pet Care Technician Level II & Certified Red Cross Pet First Aid Technician and with over 5 years experience as a veterinary surgical technician, Amber brings medical perspective to the AK9C crew. Once destined for Veterinary School, in 2003 Amber put her plans of attending Tufts on hold to manage this great facility. At the early age of 3 Amber found her first love, horses! Now an avid horse trainer & exhibitor, Amber has over 25 years of riding, training & showing experience under her belt. When not at a jumper show, Amber can be found in the dog show ring. She currently competes all over the country in conformation, agility, sheep herding & obedience with her Border Collies.
