Kristen Campbell-Ivey
Kristen Ivey is a member of the International Association of Canine Professionals, brings 19 years of entrepreneurial experience and combines it with over 18,000 hours of hands-on experience working with, and observing, shelter dogs and dogs under stress. Early in her career, she studied the effects that environment can have on people and their behavior. She worked with architects, home builders, and private clients, designing space for functionality, efficiency, and, of course, individuality. Kristen was always closely involved with animal shelters, working diligently with the dogs; however, it wasn’t until 2004 that she began to dedicate time weekly to the studying of canine behavior. After watching the struggles of many dogs, and the heartbreaking, unnecessary loss of life, Kristen decided to commit to filling a niche in the system and being a part of the change she wanted to see in the animal welfare industry. Kristen spent over a decade observing behavior, working hands-on, learning/practicing different training methods, and studying differing beliefs about canine behavior from behaviorists. Ultimately, it was a lot of real world experience, rescuing, training, and placing dogs (and learning what didn’t work) that led her to the core beliefs that Canine Rehabilitation Center and Sanctuary holds today. Kristen has certifications in leadership training through the Rapport Leadership Institute and an extensive, close to two-year leadership course with the Reno/Sparks Chamber of Commerce. She also holds a Bachelor of Arts and a Masters Degree in Business and Organizational Management. Helping people and canines overcome trauma and stress is her deepest passion and purpose. Kristen has called Nevada home for 27 years, and enjoys spending time with her two children, Elyse and Drew, as well as with her three rescue dogs.
