Growing up, Debbie was always surrounded by pets. She was dressing up her Chihuahua-mix long before Paris Hilton made it popular. She turned her life long love into a very successful grooming and daycare business in southern Indiana. Along the way, she became a tireless animal advocate, learning how to navigate the endless bureaucratic nonsense to speak (no, shout!) for those that don’t have a voice. Since retiring to the Sarasota area, she has continued her dedication to Pets and their owners by joining Society Bytes Radio as The Pet Lady. Her weekly show is dedicated to educating people and helping animals become happy, balanced and healthy.
