The Gate Openers |

"It's a dog's world. We're just here to open the gates."Angie and Jake Schuldies (that's us!) opened the Dog Haus Dog Daycare LLC in November 2005. Opening a daycare had been a dream for us for over a year, and we are beside ourselves thinking of our good luck of being able to make this dream come true. After taking our dogs to a wonderful daycare in Arizona for a year, we moved to Wisconsin to be near family and to open this business. We both have been owned by dogs and cats throughout most of our lives. After all, we don't really own them, they own us, right?! Angie volunteered with two rescue groups in Arizona, caring for and walking dogs waiting at a kennel to be adopted. Angie has worked at a doggie daycare and a kennel over the last year, and is certified by the American Red Cross in Pet First Aid. Jake opened our loving home to several foster dogs, some that stayed only briefly, and some that required extra time and attention. We are wrapped around the paws of our two dogs - Elwood and Packer. Packer is a 4 year old pure-bred Miniature Pinscher that we adopted from a Miniature Pinscher rescue in Arizona after his owner dropped him off there because he didn't want him sleeping in his bed anymore and of course he wouldn't stop. So now he snuggles under the covers with us every night, and we couldn't be happier. Elwood is a 2 year old Shepherd/Lab mix that we adopted from The Arizona Animal Welfare League (AAWL), a rescue group that saves dogs on the euthanasia list at the local pound and gives them a temporary home until they are adopted. Elwood had been at AAWL for over a month when we found him, and we don't have a lot of details about his past except that he did spend some time living on the street. He is our Velcro dog - always wanting to be right by us and get lots of love and attention, and that's okay by us. CaretakersNatalie
I just graduated from high school in June of 2007, and plan to attend MATC in the coming years as part of the Veterinary Technician program. My love of animals brought me to The Dog Haus. I love spending time with the dogs, especially since I don't have one of my own just yet. That should change soon though! Lindsay

Hi, my name is Nate. I grew up in Reedsburg and graduated from Reedsburg High School in 2000. I have 2 children, Kirstyn and Kylee who I love very much. Currently I have two chocolate labs named Maggie and Hannah and they are my furry children. I joined the Dog Haus in November of 2009 and am happy to be a part of the Dog Haus family. I have always had a very special place in my heart for dogs and envy their ability to love unconditionally, and their loyalty. In addition to working at the Dog Haus, I am a full-time realtor - even in that line of work dogs play a huge role. Everyone likes a nice place for their dog. Kate
Hi! My name is Kate, I'm 23 and graduated from La Follette High School in 2005. I grew up in Madison and everyday I fall more in love with this beautifully diverse city. At home, my boyfriend and I have Winston, a four year old chow mix and our two cats, Kalvin and Mofro. I have been part of the awesome Dog Haus family since February 2010. I met Angie one night while I was working at my old job. We got talking about The Dog Haus and I asked if she was hiring. Meeting her may just seem like a coincidence, but for me it was meant to be. I've never had a "job" that was more fulfilling. Everyday, every single dog that comes to The Dog Haus, gives me so much happiness. I couldn't ask for anything better :) |
