JD Platt
I have been passionate and raised around animals my entire 55 years of life. I also was raised around a multitude of sports. My dream of doing something you love & working with animals or sports became a reality one fateful day in 1996 and in 1988 becoming a professional athlete. Since then I've achieved a tremendous amount of success raising & training over 24 dogs and competing in sports around the world., Check out more below of my adventurous life story.
