Our Pedigree
Ruth
Chase, owner of Coventry, Inc., has spent over 35 years teaching dogs and their
people. After many years as a dog owner, Ruth got ‘hooked’ on the
sport of obedience. Successful competition with her own dogs in the U.S.
and Canada, followed by several years of working with the country’s top
obedience competitor, gave Ruth a good foundation on which to start teaching.
Ruth went on to teach classes at all levels for 14 A.K.C. training and all-breed
clubs, serving as training director for 8 of those organizations.
Her background also includes breeding (with “Coventry” goldens attaining Am./Can
CH, UD, WCX titles) match judging, writing articles for dog publications
training and handling dogs for TV commercials and print media. She has
selected, trained and handled social/support dogs and trained and placed service
dogs since 1968. Ruth formed and operated the B/W Chapter of Therapy
Dogs, Int’l, served as a pet evaluator for Howard County Pets on Wheels, and
hosted the National Capitol Therapy Dogs. Ruth provided guidance to the
State of Md on placing working dogs in State facilities. Ruth also trained
dogs to work with patients in gov’t facilities.
