Adrienne L
Bridging Bonds: Transforming canine lives through understanding and enrichment
Adrienne's lifelong connection with dogs began in her childhood, when she believed she could communicate with them telepathically. Though she later discovered her talent was actually a keen ability to read canine body language and mannerisms, this early fascination set the stage for a career dedicated to understanding and enhancing the lives of dogs.
​
Driven by the transformative power of pet companionship, Adrienne aims to help people experience the joy and benefits of having a dog. With over 8 years of experience in community management and a background in law and sociology, she effectively leads initiatives that promote dog wellbeing, and support human-canine bonds.
