Hi, I’m Angie Wells, the founder of Shift Animal Wellness and educator behind the Canine Wellness Coach Mentorship™. I didn’t set out to become a mentor, but life—and dogs—have a way of showing us where we’re most needed.
My career started in the horse world, that was my first calling, my first love, and the path I devoted the early part of my professional life to. I worked in barns, rehab centers, and alongside performance horses long before I ever imagined myself teaching natural wellness for dogs.
But dogs have always been part of my story. Kennel work, small animal clinics… They were part of my experience, just not my initial primary career focus.
That shifted the day I took the principles of Naturopathy, which I had seen work miracles for my herd and my horse clients, and began applying them to my own dogs. I didn’t plan on making it a part of my business. I just wanted to give my dogs better health and a more natural life.
But when I saw the transformation, when chronic issues resolved, when energy returned, when they just thrived — I knew I couldn’t keep this to myself.
At first, it was my horse clients who also had dogs. Then came the referrals. And before I knew it, I was supporting more dogs than I ever expected, with work that actually changed lives.
Over time, one thing became clear: The dog world is full of opinions. Misinformation is everywhere. And often, it’s the dogs who suffer most.
That’s why I created this mentorship.
Because the program that first opened this world for me? It no longer exists. And while I’m grateful for what it gave me, there were so many gaps I had to learn to fill on my own.
This is the program I wish I had when I first got started.
One that doesn’t just teach information, but helps you embody it.
One that doesn’t just give you a certificate, but helps you bring the work to life through a grounded, heart-led business.
And perhaps most personally… As someone who adopts senior dogs, those sweet souls with laundry lists of health concerns and often little time left, I’ve seen firsthand how powerful these principles can be.
Naturopathy hasn’t just helped my clients' dogs… It’s helped me give my own dogs more time, more comfort, and more vibrant golden years in their forever home.
That’s what I want for you. To know this work. To trust it. To share it. And to step into a business that brings more healing to dogs and more purpose to your life.
