Christian Paulin, Law Enforcement Hopeful, Joins the Staff at Custom Canine Unlimited

Join Us in Welcoming Our Newest Kennel Technician Addition! 

Gainesville, Georgia, August 2020. Custom Canine Unlimited welcomes a new full-time Kennel Team Member to their staff! Christian Paulin, who is skilled at caring for animals, comes onto the team as a Kennel Technician.  

It’s not Christian’s first time in the care of animals, as she is very experienced. Christian has spent every summer since she can remember on a horse ranch, taking pride in her ability to adequately provide a great quality of life for the animals. Custom Canine Unlimited is excited to bring her on board as she makes the transition from Equine to K9. Christian also has aspirations in the Law Enforcement world! Christian is currently attending Truett McConnell college in Cleveland, Georgia, where she studies Criminal Justice. Christian is very excited about the opportunity to learn, not only about K9s and training, but also about Law Enforcement. Christian tells us she aspires to be a K9 Handler Game Warden. 

Christian tells us that she’s passionate about the Law Enforcement world, so the environment at Custom Canine Unlimited was perfect for her! Christian says “I’ve always loved dogs,” having a Belgian Malinois of her own. She also says that “K9s make a big difference in the criminal justice program, and since that’s what I’m studying, it helps a lot with learning.” 

Thanks for joining us Christian! We look forward to the helpful role you’ll take in the care of our K9s!
