Ruth Foster and Friend

Mrs. Ruth Foster was a co-founder of CENSHARE and passed away in 2016. Mrs. Foster was an internationally recognized expert on dogs and dog behavior.  Foster wanted to design a dog collar that would control dogs without choking them like traditional collars often do. Together with Dr. RK Anderson, a veterinarian at the University of Minnesota, she developed a collar that works with dog’s natural behavior rather than against it. She was especially well known for her expertise in the selection and training of dogs for special, human-service-oriented purposes. She was also director Emeritus of Twin Cities Obedience Training Club (TCOTC) in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
