Denise is a professional journalist (and former Newsday staff writer and columnist) who is lucky enough to write about the thing that she loves -- dogs! She's also fortunate to have a husband and kids who enthusiastically take part in her "dog life"!

With her business partner Theresa Lyons, Denise publishes three boutique magazines for the dog fancy: The Ridgeback Register (www.RidgebackRegister.com); Sighthound Review (www.SighthoundReview.com) and Modern Molosser (www.ModernMolosser.com).


Denise is a member in good standing of the Rhodesian Ridgeback Club of the United States (www.RRCUS.org) and writes the Ridgeback breed column for the AKC Gazette.


She is the past chair of the RRCUS Health & Genetics Committee (www.RhodesianRidgebackHealth.org), and served as the club's historian for many years.


In her own community, Denise is president of the Nassau/Suffolk Owner Handlers Association (www.nsoha.org) and a founding member and secretary of the Big Apple Sighthound Association (www.bigapplesighthounds.org), the only lure-coursing club in New York City and its eastern suburbs.


In addition to her publishing company, Denise is a contributing editor to Dog Fancy magazine, and contributes frequently to Dog News and the Whole Dog Journal.

 

She is a member of the World Dog Press Association and the Alliance of Purebred Dog Writers (www.purebreddogwriters.org).
