Lindsay Carney's journey in the dog world began at age ten, when she showed her golden retriever. She pursued a degree in Healthcare Administration from Kent State University, graduating magna cum laude and has since operated several multimillion dollar healthcare centers. She trained her golden retriever, Dagny, as a therapy dog to bring comfort to her patients. This led her passion for dogs to deepen, and she established Diamond Dogs Kennel, our breeding partner, in 2021. Here, she breeds German shepherds and golden retrievers. Following years of dedication to conformation and therapy work, in pursuit of enhancing both breeds, Lindsay expanded her expertise into other dog sports. She became a certified CGC Evaluator, gaining insight from renowned trainers while prioritizing the welfare of dogs. Currently, Lindsay participates in various competitions with her personal dogs, including IGP, dock diving, conformation, and Fast CAT. Over the past few years, she has conducted STAR Puppy and CGC classes, training dogs in basic and advanced obedience, service work, therapy dogs, and behavior modification. Lindsay's passion for dogs is evident from the moment you meet her, and she takes great joy in fostering the bond between dogs and their human companions.
