The Dog Lover Herself
Owner, shopkeeper, graphic designer, web developer...you name it, Sianan's probably behind it. Shan is the dog-owned woman behind DogWire. Shan currently resides in Wisconsin with her husband and two Chocolate Labrador Retrievers. She works full-time as a web developer and graphic designer for her own company and continues to do web design for non-profit organizations, as well as author freelance dog life, health, training, and behavior articles for online publications.
Shan began graphic design and web development in 1995, while attending Hofstra University. Although it was then that she began to use the computer as her artistic medium, she had been in many art exhibit competitions for water color, abstract mediums, and pottery since the 3rd grade.
Although she had dogs growing up, the love of dogs began to take heart after bringing home her first 8-week old puppy after moving away from her childhood home. It was an 8 lbs. Chocolate Lab, named Dakota, with the saddest eyes and most beautiful face that would melt any heart. One was not enough, and after 11 months, Cheyenne was brought home.
