Other than dogs - I am passionate about…
Weight lifting and exercise
I have loved weight lifting since I was 16 years old. I am extremely passionate about the benefits of maintaining good muscle mass as we age. Find me at @mamaregalbuto on Instagram.

I love cooking and baking. I love finding new foods, wines, restaurants and wine tasting venues.
Travel
I love to travel off the beaten path. No crowds for me thank you, take me somewhere quiet.
Nature - wide open spaces

My life revolves around dogs. Whether I am training, photographing, writing about or just relaxing with; I can most often be found around the canine species.
I have been involved with dogs for 50 years. Starting in the conformation ring at the age of 13 and remaining in the world of dogs until this day.
Handling many different dogs and breeds gave me the handling skills that I still call on today. Over the years I honed my handling skills even further working in the obedience field. After the show ring I moved onto obedience and behavior training.
Once my three children arrived I took a break from everything dog, except my own dogs. Then I got back into it and discovered positive reinforcement dog training which remains my passion to this day.
Once I switched from conventional to positive; my relationship with dogs was never the same. I consider a dog's mind to be a wonderful and complicated thing. Positive training meant finding solutions; watching, learning and implementing.
I joined the APDT and attended the 6th Annual APDT Educational Conference in San Diego and continued extensive research on body language, markers, bridges, shaping and techniques used to better close the gap between the human and canine connection.
Recently retired from one on one training; I spend most of my time creating online training courses, writing and working on many canine related sources in order to help others improve their canine relationship.
My mission is to bring humans and canines into a symbiotic relationship. Where each thrives with the presence of the other. Alone they are just man and just dog; together they complete the perfection of a "canine lifestyle."
As long as I can remember, it has been all about dogs. At Just dogs with Sherri I strive to create a more harmonious for you and your dog.
Although dogs are incredibly intelligent and often seem to understand everything that we say, they are not furry humans. My mission at Just dogs with Sherri is to better your relationship with your dog/dogs. Day to day can be amazing with our dogs but it can also be a huge challenge. By learning about how dogs communicate, learn and see our world we can make our world together a better and more enjoyable place. Through articles, photography, books, webinar sessions and online video courses I bring the human and canine connection to the next level. A true canine lifestyle.
Past and future, I am dedicated to:
Helping canine guardians learn and utilize positive behavior modification.
Help to educate people to educate their dogs.
Offering online consultations to help with canine issues around the world.
Helping canine guardians work through the loss of a canine companion via online consultations.
Helping people save money and do their own grooming at home via online courses.
Sharing a wealth of canine experience and knowledge through published books.
