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…
How Was Your Weekend?
As the picture above of my 2 ungrateful furry kids show, we did get a chance to relax this past weekend. I did some cleaning, and it was interesting because neither of them went to sleep til I was finished even though they had their comfortable bed. Maybe it was all the noise I made….

Life + Dogs = Balance
Our canine companions do change our lives in so many ways. For some pet parents-like me- dogs bring joy, laughter, more exercise, and even more interaction with other pet parents. Then, there are those pet parents that are stressed out and tired because of their dogs’ antics, but that is easy to fix. Easy? Yes,…
New Year’s Resolutions For Your Dogs And Their Pet Parents
At the start of the year, I have a list of the things I’d like to accomplish for my furry kids and myself, and for 2023 the list looks like this: Anyway, I think that that is a pretty good list for 2023. Every month I take a look at it as a reminder of…
