Voices Carry for Animals #13

THE HOST OF THIS SHOW IS DEBBIE DAHMER

Jeff Coltenback was born and raised in a small town in Northern, NJ.  He always had a love of animals.  He was involved in athletics his whole life and was captain of his High School Football and Baseball teams.  He went on to play college football as a walk on and was poised to have a bright college football career.  He has been involved in dog training since the early 1990’s when he assisted in training his brother’s Pit Bull, Odin.  Odin was the reason Jeff fell in love with Pit Bulls.  Throughout the early and mid 1990’s Jeff was presented with many opportunities to help train and care for the dogs and pets of friends and family.  In the late 1990’s he began studying more seriously to learn all he could about training dogs.  As his dog training career began to materialize, so did his increasing love for Pit Bulls.  Even in the 1990s, Pit Bulls were misunderstood.  And, he felt the responsibility to change the public’s mind and negative view of his beloved breed.  

Jeff has been a guest on a variety of radio shows, including various appearances on Martha Stewart Radio.  after many appearances, and at the encouraging of his wife, Jeff launched his own internet radio show in early 2013.  You can listen to Jeff's shows here:  http://www.blogtalkradio.com/jeffcoltenback.  The links to the episodes are below as well and you can listen to them right here.  The episodes are in chronological order with the most recent one first.
