Vanna ID 50527282 Foster Dog

The cutie pie in the crate is our foster doggie. She is amazing. Small, energetic, loving and full of life. I’ll be working with her on behavior and training, with emphasis on the former. Dogs end up in shelters, many times, because they need behavior modification. We’ll keep you posted on her progress. Enjoy your…

Sweaters, Blankets, And Beds For Dogs

For those of us, pet parents, that live in places where it gets cold, sweaters, blankets and beds for our dogs is a must. My cousin, a couple of years ago, who lives in Ecuador had a good laugh at my expense when I told her that I make my dogs wear sweaters. Now on…

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….
