When I am Old...
I shall wear diamonds
And a wide brimmed straw hat
With silver and leather on it
and I shall spend my social security
On white wine and carrots
And sit in the alley of my barn
And listen to my horses breathe.

I will sneak out
in the middle of a summer's night
And ride the chestnut mare
Across the moonstruck meadow.
If my old bones will allow.

When people come to call I will smile and nod As I walk them past the gardens to the barn
And show, instead, the beauty growing there
In stalls fresh-lined with straw.

I will shovel and sweat and
Wear hay in my hair as if it
were a jewel.
And I will be an embarrassment to all
Who look down on me.
They've not yet found the peace in being free
To love a horse as a friend,
A friend who waits at midnight hour
With nuzzle and nicker and
patient eyes
For the kind of woman I will be
When I am Old.

About

Women and cats will do as they please, and men and dogs should relax and get used to the idea. ~~Robert A. Heinlein

    I am happy to offer a lifetime's worth of dedication, experience,
and knowledge to the animals of this area through Pawsitive Energy.
My life with animals has included everything from
rescue to showing to animal assisted therapy
to living with a menagerie of 50+dogs, 13 cats, eight birds, and two horses.
(More about that below.)

They have taught me so much,
and I can't imagine a life without my "kids."

    So I know how hard it can be to go away and trust your
"babies" to someone else. I'm famous for leaving at least six pages
of instructions whenever I go anywhere, so you can be sure
that I understand how important
even the smallest details can be.

Is this page too hard to read? Click here.

    Routine is important to your companion animal. Whether it's a pill at 6:30 or a twice around the block walk, I will follow your instructions to the letter. It's important to me that you have complete peace of mind while you're gone. When ever your companion animal stays with us, he or she will get the very best of care, and you will come home to a happy, healthy, well-cared-for friend.

So You Won't be the Only One Who's Having a Good Time!

  At Pawsitive Energy,we understand the importance and depth of the human/animal bond, and we do our best to help you improve your connection with your animal companion.

My Background
    My life has always revolved around animals. Beginning with the family dog, my earliest memories are of our companion animals . When my parents gave in to the nightly "Now I lay me down to sleep... Please God, I'd really like a pony," little did they know what they were getting themselves into. Within a few years, I was actively involved in training and showing Appaloosas, dragging my family around five states. Some of our big show wins were right here in Columbus.

    Following a move to Virginia in the early 80's, I switched to showing dogs, breeding one litter of Whippet puppies and showing them in bred by owner classes. (Four of those five puppies stayed in the family and lived out long, happy lives as couch potatoes after their show dog days were over.) Of the many highlights of those years, attending the Westminster Kennel Club Show is the experience that was probably the most exciting and unforgettable.

    Next came animal-assisted therapy with my Australian Shepherd, Sesame. Ses earned her Canine Good Citizen Certificate and Therapy Dog designation, and we made weekly visits to residents in local nursing homes.

    I have since become active in the animal rights movement, starting a rescue, greyhound adoption program, and spay/neuter service. The Spay/Neuter Incentive Project & Sanctuary, or "snips" for short, is dedicated to providing education and encouraging a holistic approach to the animal/human relationship. Through the snips sanctuary I have cared for many dogs and cats, and they in turn have taught me so much. Dealing with so many different animals and the inevitable assortment of health and behavior issues, I've dealt with everything from mange to dominance to cancer.

    As my involvement with rescue grew, I wasn't able to support snips on my regular salary, so in the summer of 1999, I began companion animal sitting. Seeing people who really loved and respected their animal companions provided the much needed and appreciated contrast to what I'd been seeing in the shelters, as well as even more animal related experience.

   Through my extended animal family, I have learned many lessons in love, patience, and loyalty, and each and every animal I've cared for holds a special place in my heart.

    When I left Virginia in late 2001 to start all over again in Ohio, one of the hardest things was saying goodbye to all my "other" kids, those who'd been adopted and those I'd cared for. But, since the chance to marry the man of your dreams doesn't come around all that often (even though in my case it was dependent upon packing up twelve dogs, eleven cats and one very large bird and trekking eight hours across three states), it seemed like the right thing to do.

More about Cooper and I...
"For Women Over 40 Succumbing to the Desire
to Start Riding Again"

    I have continued with the rescue program and the web page, which now focuses on education about topics ranging from nutrition to the latest in animal related legislation.

   I now have the opportunity to turn my passion for animals and natural health care into a full time pursuit. Through Pawsitive Energy, I am able to share what I have learned about keeping companion animals happy and healthy through natural therapies and home care. To further Pawsitive Energy, I am currently studying animal acupressure, homeopathy, Emotional Freedom Techniques, communication, nutrition, and other natural health disciplines. So if you're looking for animal care that's "outside the litterbox," contact me at Pawsitive Energy to schedule an appointment.
