dock diving dog sports dog training

Background

At Dog Time Sports, we are dog people. The owner/trainer EJ Buchen has had experience in dog training all her life. She became more advanced when challenged with her first Border Collie, Blue. Blue is special in that he has autistic behaviors and requires additional training. EJ attended many classes with Blue using different advanced trainers and has developed a broad knowledge base which includes dog sports. Since Border Collies, like most working dogs, need jobs and exercise EJ worked and competed with Blue in both agility and frisbee. She soon became hooked on dog sports, our family grew to a total of 5 Border Collies, and she expanded to include dock diving where she competes at a national level. Be sure to check out our gallery while you are browsing our site. We love to periodically post new pictures and videos.

The Staff

EJ Buchen - Owner/Trainer

Hi, I hope to met you real soon. In the meantime let me tell you a little about how I got involved with dog training and dog sports. When I was young I loved animal shows and wanted to able to better relate to animals. It turned out that real world was much different than our vision as children. As children, we all have grand ideas of doing all kinds of fun stuff with our pets. I have always had a dog and through the years I developed an interest in behavior science. I put these skills to work when I got my first Border Collie, Blue. He was very much a challenge and had a strong set of behavioral issues. I went through many classes and seminars in order to work and build a relationship with Blue. Blue has autistic behaviors and learns differently than any other dog I have ever worked with. Through my years of training Blue and I trained and fell in love with dog sports. I have opened Dog Time Sports to celebrate the fun that dogs and dog owners have when participating in dog sports.

Katie Gallant- Handler/Trainer

Hi, I am Katie and I work with EJ, the owner. I have experience with all sorts of animals and I love Border Collies where I own two. I met EJ when she asked me to care for her dogs when she would go out of town. The dogs and I fell in love and I soon became a handler/trainer working with EJ and traveling with EJ too many dog sporting events where I specialize in dock diving. I enjoy working with kids and I am a martial arts instructor for them. I have experience training for dock diving, obedience, and trick. I also rescue dogs and try to place as many as possible in good homes. I am proud to be a part of Dog Time Sports and look forward to working with you.
