Her hobbies include trying new recipes from different cultures, gardening, and knitting. She has a passion for Australian cattle dogs and rescued Addy, her current ACD, 17 years ago. But who rescued whom? Addy was born deaf, so they learned American Sign Language together. She still provides a good challenge and much-needed distraction for Sarah.
