Jodi grew up around dogs, but it wasn’t until she discovered the Havanese breed that she became interested in training and showing dogs. She was encouraged to participate in agility and took many classes under several trainers to learn about the sport. She loved it and began showing in UKC and AKC agility. Jodi earned her MACH in AKC with her dog Adidas in 2017. Adidas was ranked by AKC as the #11 Havanese in agility in the country that year. Jodi also competes with her dog Skechers in AKC agility and Fast CAT. Jodi and Skechers have earned many titles and received High In Trial in the National Havanese Agility Show in 2018.
