Katherine Ulrich
After a 17 year career training guide dogs for the blind, Katherine is enjoying this very different aspect of dog training. Born and raised in Florida, she is awed by the beauty of the Carolinas and the true Southern Hospitality, saying “I wasn’t born in the Carolinas, but I got here as fast as I could!” Katherine is certified at the SAR Tech II level. Her canine partner is Journey, a female German Shepherd.
