“Working with dogs has been my lifelong passion, and I cannot envision a more fulfilling career.” — Christine
Tiffany Sharier
Tiffany has been passionate about working with animals since childhood and began her journey in the working-dog world while serving as a U.S. Army veteran. After returning home, she transitioned into civilian dog training, building a strong foundation in obedience and behavior modification. Her early work in Ohio eventually led her to the Tampa Bay area of Florida, where she successfully owned and operated her own dog-training business for more than four years.
Eager to expand her expertise, Tiffany attended a trailing workshop that reignited her passion for scent-based work. She relocated to South Carolina to immerse herself in trailing and detection training, helping imprint and prepare dogs placed with law enforcement agencies across the country. Since then, she has worked with police, military, and Search & Rescue teams nationwide, continuing to refine her craft.
Now based in Mooresville, North Carolina, Tiffany leads Elevation K9, offering programs for both companion and working dogs. She also contracts her personal K9, Hendrix, for narcotics detection at the Port of Miami and other private facilities.
