Swim, Bark, Run! is
an established, veterinarian recommended dog walking & training company run in its entirety by owner Deirdre Haugo. She has chosen not to take
on any employees as she feels strongly about keeping a strong personal
relationship with all of her clients.
Deirdre has been working with dogs professionally since 2008, but has been caring for her own and other people's pets for as long as she can remember. As a member of the Association of Pet Dog Trainers, Deirdre has committed to following a high ethical set of standards for dog training and care, as well as a commitment to continuing education.
Deirdre is currently upgrading her education through the Companion Animal Sciences Institute and is working to attain the required training hours to write the Certification Council for Professional Dog Trainers exam to obtain the CDPT-KA designation.
Deirdre is thrilled to be working with the dogs and for the residents in her hometown of New Westminster.
