Eileen’s passion for dogs all started when she was three years old, when she got her first puppy: Kim, a Labrador retriever. Her parents knew then that there was a strong bond between Eileen and her canine companions; her parents would always say,  “if you can’t find Eileen then find the nearest dog. She will be there”.

After moving from Scotland to Canada, Eileen decided that she wanted to pursue her passion and make it her business. Eileen and her dog Morgan enrolled in a dog training school where she quickly developed new skills; she enjoyed the program so much she followed through with the master dog training course. 

Eileen says it was tough — working full time and training every evening — but today she owns her own successful dog training business.

Eileen is looking forward to having her dogs return to homes and hospitals to give joy to others through the Therapeutic Paws of Canada.
