Alison Ouellette is a Rottweiler dog breeder and dog trainer in New Hampshire USA. Lori and Alison met in 2009 because they each owned dogs from Rott-Iron Rottweilers and were both mentored by Karen Hayes. Alison has competed in a variety of different dog sports with her Rottweilers. She currently trains dogs at Peace Of Mind Canine Training in Louden NH.

One thing mentioned in this episode is the amount of work that it takes to properly train and care for these powerful and amazing dogs. I enjoy speaking with people like Lori and Alison, they provide a deep knowledge due to their many years of experience. Thank you for listening!
