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…

Upper 70’s In Maryland!
I am so glad and grateful that the weather here in Annapolis, MD will be in the upper 70’s! Take a wild guess what we’ll be doing? Yes, walking, of course. That’s what your dog should look like after a nice walk. Enjoy this gorgeous weather and stay safe.
Missing The Warm Long Days of Summer
I know, it’s a bit early to be complaining about the cold weather since we’re still in the fall season, but that is not going to stop me from doing it anyway. I’ve realized that even Abby and Charlie tend to want to sleep longer once it starts getting cold. What changes or activities do…
Abby And Charlie Swapping Beds
I have absolutely no idea why Abby and Charlie swap beds. Do you know why your dogs swap beds? If you do, please share that information with me because I am quite curious about this unexplained phenomenon. Years ago, I made it a point that each dog would go to his/her bed, but now I…
Abby’s Vet Visit: She Did Great!
Taking Abby to the vet is-I know a lot of pet parents will no believe me-wonderful. She is calm, friendly, curious, and cooperative. When she was younger, she was hyperactive so I had to take her for a long walk before her vet’s appointment, and although I no longer have to do that, I still…
Treating Dog Anxiety
Anxiety in dogs is something that pet parents have a hard time dealing with or recognizing for that matter. These are some of the signs a dog will exhibit when anxious: pacing, drooling, barking, destroying things, nipping, etc. I always recommend for pet parents to have a vet do a physical exam to rule out…
Have A Great Monday! Really?
As you could see from the above picture, my canine kids certainly know how to start the week. Monday was never my favorite day, but now I am starting to learn to appreciate every day. Yes, even Monday. I had to post the above picture. Charlie seemed to be fascinated by that candle. A minute…
Confessions Of A Dog Trainer And Pet Parent- Relaxing The Rules
To say that Abby and Charlie were given lots of food, treats, naps, and freedom since November of last year would be an understatement. Let me start from the beginning. Once November came around, my body went into holiday mode so the kids, Abby and Charlie, for the most part did what they wanted. And…
Belated Happy New Year 2022
Happy New Year! Sorry for the delay. Let’s give you a run down of what we did this past holiday. We ate a lot-as expected-both humans and canines; we slept and took naps; we did walk, and added playtime for Abby and Charlie in order to stay consistent and active; and-wait for it-we realized that…
A New Bed For Abby And Charlie
We got a new bed for Abby and Charlie a few weeks ago-at this point you’re probably saying to yourself, “That’s so nice of you”-because we got tired of moving their two beds from the kitchen to the living room. By now you’ve realized that such action was self-serving. Anyway, Abby and Charlie are still…
