Confession Of A Dog Trainer – Cutting Nails
Years ago, when we had 2 dogs, pit bull mixes, I had to start cutting their nails. They were both compliant and didn’t seem to care at all. I, on the other hand, for the first couple of months would sweat profusely, it didn’t matter if it was Summer or Winter season, every time I…

The Advantages Of An Adult Dog
As you can tell by the title of this post, I am biased, or maybe I should say, I prefer adult dogs, right? If you are going to a shelter and you are not taking a look at the adult dogs they have for adoption , let me tell you that you might just be…
