Jennifer McCarthy started learning about animals from the time she was born through her Mother’s guidance and help. She began horseback riding at age 3 and teaching her own dogs to do tricks by age 5. Those tricks lead to experiments like training her goldfish to swim in a circle for food, teaching her horse to bow for a carrot and her cat how to sit. Attending dog and horse shows, training classes and private lessons with her Mother was a signifigant part of Jennifer’s life growing up. By age 14, she had been accepted into one of the top riding programs in the country with her 17 hand Thoroughbred ex-race horse that no one else could ride but her. Jennifer notes, “I always felt a connection with animals – I don’t know how to explain it other than a mutual understanding.”
