“The world would be a nicer place if everyone had the ability to love as unconditionally as a dog.” ―M.K. Clinton
Lora Raycroft
AKC CGC, S.T.A.R. Puppy, Trick Dog evaluator
Lora began training and showing dogs at a very young age. As a child, she would frequently attended therapy dogs, dog obedience classes and dog shows with her mother, Judy Ramsey. At 15 years old, Lora got her first dog, a Papillon named Piper. Piper recently passed away but we will remember him not only by his love but also by his various obedience, rally and agility titles. Lora and Piper also did Therapy Dog work in San Antonio at a nursing home while Lora attended college at UTSA. While in San Antonio for college, she also taught beginning and foundation classes at K9 Country Club for four years.
In training, Lora really focuses on the relationships with her dogs. She believes all training in every aspect should strengthen the relationship between dog and human in a positive manner. When dogs enjoy learning, they perform skills better.
