Megan started getting interested in dog training at the young age of 11, after being obsessed with dogs her whole life. At 12 years old, Megan’s parents have her the opportunity to pick out her own dog to pursue her newfound interest in dog shows, and she decided on a Border Collie.  Over the past two decades, she and her family have been involved in showing, training, breeding, and rescuing BCs. She now owns her own dog training business, NoCo Unleashed, where her main focus is teaching Control Unleashed and Nose Work. She currently owns 3 Border Collies, two rescue females, and a male down from the family’s line, and a Rhodesian Ridgeback. They train in a variety of sports, focusing on Nose Work.
