Kendra Williams
Kendra is a gluten-detection dog handler. She trained her dog, Suki, through Willow Service Dogs under Dawn Scheu. As a blogger and social media content creator, Kendra discovered the hunger for more information regarding training service dogs, specifically gluten-detection dogs. Kendra also hears tragic stories almost weekly from people who tried to train a dog either on their own or through a trainer, and ended up with a sad story of a dog that was completely untrained.
Professionally, she designs education and training programs for corporations. She decided to take her knowledge of training and develop some courses to answer the questions she had prior to training a gluten-detection dog. She also wanted to help others not make the same mistakes she made on her journey.
Because of the lack of information regarding training a service dog, and the expense of training, Kendra decided to partner with her good friend and fellow service dog trainer, Kari Bastyr, to design a series of courses to educate potential handlers on what they need to know prior to making the full commitment of training a service dog.
