Kayla has been training and completing in AKC (American Kennel Club) for ten years. She started agility at ten years old and fell in love with the sport. Kurtz has been teaching at Competitive Edge Agility for two years. She has received two MACHs (Master Agility Champion) with Bella and Dream. Kayla has gone to AKC Nationals twice in 2014 and 2015 with both Bella and Dream. Currently, Kayla runs M.E. who is a sheltie in agility and completes in AKC and CPE trials. She has learned the more positive you are in agility, the better results you will receive from your dog. Kayla states "Agility is a sport to have fun with your dog and to create a bond that you will not find anywhere else."

Valerie's teaching skills are very professional but I think the greatest thing about Valerie as a teacher is making the class fun for the dogs. Keli never fails to have a good time when Valerie isteaching Agility.
