Hyde shared her recently passed pitbull boxer, Mr. Thick , was a huge turning point in her career. Mr. Thick was introduced to Hyde as one of her assigned rescues from Texas, and she adopted him as soon as she could. “Thick dove me deeper into the world of dog training,” shared Hyde. “He was human and dog aggressive, which unfortunately many of my clients go through. If there was one dog that relates to more of my clients than not, it’s Thick.” With many challenges, the pitbull boxer pushed Hyde to her limits in the best possible way. He became the most obedient dog out of her pack. Unfortunately this year, Hyde said goodbye to Thick, as he suffered from a brain tumor. “I’ll always continue to talk about Thick, as he excelled me in

my career as a trainer and a handler,” said Hyde. Although The Golden Academy is a small business, Hyde says it’s mighty. “I put my heart and soul into my clients, making sure everybody feels known and welcome,” explained Hyde. “I will never turn anyone away.” Hyde relishes her success when she’s able to see or hear her clients enjoy their lives with their furry friends again. “There’s nothing better than having dogs in our lives,” she said.
