Every time I try to take pictures of dogs for the most part it ends up in a complete disaster, but I laugh and enjoy the experience. Now, if treats are in the mix, pictures tend to be easier to take. Abby is already giving her paw to Cynthia. Dogs cannot fake things. That’s why…

Kitchen: Most Popular Room In Our House
One thing I’ve realized, and many of you probably would agree with me, is that the kitchen is the most popular and used room in a house. All of Abby’s friends love to hang out in the kitchen specially when Cynthia is cooking. After Champagne helped Cynthia prepare a delicious meal, she was very tired…
Abby Paying Her Bills In Person
Abby was pretty surprised when I told her that she needed to go in person and pay her water/sewage/garbage bill. As you can see, she was so bothered by it that she was giving me the cold shoulder. What a brat! I wanted to be mad at her, but she looked so cute wearing that…
Veterans Day 2016
Let me start by saying, thanks to all the veterans, their families and the dogs that served this country. Cynthia and I were in the Navy years ago, and we both met amazing people and learned a lot from them. We were planning to go out with the kids, but after a short walk, about…

When I do a consultation, the first thing I want is for the pet parent to tell me what issues his dog is exhibiting and what is it that they want to accomplish. Once they do that, usually my first question is: how many times a day do you walk your dog and for how…
Seminar in Plymouth, MA
Yesterday, I conducted a seminar in Plymouth, MA and we were able to do some sightseeing prior to it. This was my first time in this area and it was beautiful to say the least. Before starting my seminar, I took Abby for a walk so she can socialize with people, and see new things. …
Blue Hills Ski Area in Canton, MA
On Sunday, we went to Blue Hills Ski Area located in Canton, MA to do a little hiking and sightseeing but also to see how Abby would behave or in her case misbehave. We did a lot of walking, but the day was quite conducive to being outdoors, a bit cloudy with a nice breeze…
Memorial Day 2016 -South Boston, MA
Abby, just like Alex, is very people and dog friendly, and of course she was not going to pass up the opportunity of meeting this nice man. Abby has come a long way in regards to meeting people. At the beginning, let’s remember she was a puppy, she’d pee every time she’d meet someone new,…
