Belinda and Jeff are both actively involved in the rescue and fostering of Weimaraners through Louisville Weimaraner Rescue, Inc. After seeing so many dogs turned over to shelters, rescues and often just into the street, for what in many cases is a problem that can be fixed with basic training, they decided they can make the biggest difference by helping people build better communication with their dogs through training.
