Jake started his journey with dogs when he was 18 years old and deployed as a Tactical Explosive Detection Dog Handler in the U.S. Army. After getting out of the Army, Jake began a career with the Midland County Sheriff's Office, where he spent 4 of those years as the Animal Control Deputy. During that time, Jake watched as many dogs were rehomed due to their rambunctious behavior. Many of these dogs were anxious and needed an outlet. This helped push Jake into teaching dog owners how to help their dog be less anxious. When Jake adopted his retired working dog Shira he noticed many of the same anxious behaviors in her, like pacing nonstop, barking randomly, and never really "settling down". Jake focused on helping Shira become calmer and more comfortable in her new life outside of finding IEDs. In 2019 Jake adopted a Belgian Malinois, Creed, from the local shelter, who was very nervous. Creed has now become a popular face in training sessions around K9 OPS, helping other dogs who are anxious and reactive to other dogs. Jake now enjoys teaching other dog owners who are having the same challenges with their dogs how to help their dog become calmer and less anxious.
