Teressa Hill - Certified Dog Trainer and Rescue Volunteer - Independence, MO

I am a volunteer with MoKan Boxer Rescue. If we can keep a dog from going to the shelter it is a win win for all. Also, I help with the dogs that come into our program. I actually do not charge for my time.

As a Certified Dog Trainer and Rescue Volunteer, I feel incredibly fortunate to have found a fulfilling and meaningful way to blend my passion for dogs with my desire to make a positive impact on their lives. Becoming a certified trainer has allowed me to help dog owners build strong bonds with their furry companions, address behavioral challenges, and create a harmonious home environment. Simultaneously, my work as a rescue volunteer brings me great joy as I get to be a part of the process of rehabilitating and finding loving homes for dogs in need. The combination of these roles allows me to contribute to the welfare of dogs from various angles, whether it's by teaching valuable skills or by giving a second chance to those who have faced hardship. It's a deeply rewarding journey that reminds me daily of the incredible capacity for love and resilience that dogs possess.
