Episode Notes

This week, we’re excited to sit down with Andrew Sterner, a dedicated PSA competitor and trainer. In this two-part interview, Andrew shares how he coincidentally got into dog sport, starting in IGP before moving on to PSA. He opens up about the challenges he’s faced with his dogs over the past four years and his journey to East Coast Regionals where he took 1st and 2nd place in the level 1 with two different dogs.
