Rea grew up training and handling Samoyeds and many other breeds for local canine enthusiasts.

Growing up in the “dog show” world gave Rea a broad understanding of the needs of dog breeders.

In 2004, Rea became a dog breeder of her own, registering her purebred Samoyeds under the kennel name of “Oonirgluk,” which is after a heroic, lead, sled dog in a beloved childhood book.

Currently, in her spare time she enjoys competing in conformation and agility and hitting the trails for some winter dogsledding or summer dog scootering or backpacking just for fun.

Rea’s personal zoo includes her Samoyeds “Kaki, Coco and Anukti”, her cat “Solo”, and her budgie “Pixie”.
