About Animal Equilibrium

My love of animals with over 25yrs experience in breeding, showing, and training of dogs, I bring passion and commitment to my work. I have been a member of Dogs NSW for over 25yrs. I am also an active competitor in performance dog sports such as agility, canine freestyle, and herding. I have also been involved in the training of harness racing horses along with my husband.

I have a keen interest in the application of natural therapies in the area of improved handler/rider and animal performance. I am the owner of a menagerie of animals, including dogs, horses and a range of farm animals - they are my teachers, healers and friends.

My philosophy is to work for the wellbeing of the animal and to engage in a team approach with the owner/handler, your veterinarian, other health care provider or animal trainer (if you so desire).

As with all complementary therapies, the advice and healing given does not replace the services, views and opinions of your veterinarian. Animal Equilibrium does not dispense veterinary advice, diagnosis or prescriptions.
