About me

Gender Female
Occupation Founder and Director Barker Behavior, Inc.
Location Chicago, IL, United States
Introduction On January 8th, 2013, I said goodbye to my best friend, soul mate dog and the most resilient, funny creature I have ever known. I started this blog as a way to heal my heart, an outlet to talk about my Finn. If you are just stumbling upon it, start from the beginning. And, if you are anything like me and like to "do something", please consider donating to Safe Humane Chicago. Not only was Gavin's life, and many others, saved by their efforts but their programs ensure dogs go to the right homes, stay there and help educate the Chicagoland community, a vital need. Please specify "Gavin's Gift" www.safehumanechicago.org/donate
Interests Dogs and training them, Hiking, running, playing fetch with my dog or taking him to the beach, biking, having brunch or checking out a new BYOB with my friends and travel...
Favorite Movies Sliding Doors, Willie Wonka (the original), The Shining, Ferris Beuller's Day Off, Witchboard, Girls Just Wanna Have Fun, Heathers, Basic Instinct and many bad movies on USE that for some reason I can't seem to tear myself away from sometimes.
Favorite Music I love it all, rap, rock (all versions of it) 80s, jazz. My absolute favorite is my brother's stuff, I may be biased but he's the best. I can also be found listening to some Brittnay, Christiana and Fergie during a good run.
