Over seventy percent of Tammie’s life has been spent with dogs. She grew up in the sport as a junior, participated in 4-H, bred Pembroke Welsh Corgis and Papillons, and spent over 30 years as a professional handler. Now retired from handling, she remains deeply passionate about the sport and especially about supporting the young people involved in it. She is pictured here with her Pembroke Welsh Corgi, Fiona.
“When I heard about SHOW-SAFE it sparked my excitement. Seeing the people that were promoting the organization and speaking with members of their board at the AKC National show this past year (2024), I saw how well organized and beneficial this program is. Empowering our young people to communicate effectively and set appropriate boundaries while participating in a sport that is centered around family and individual participation is needed in all aspects of life. I can’t wait to further assist Show-Safe as they expand across the country and reach our young people and their families.”–Tammie Sommerson-Wilcox
