Zoe has been with us for 5 months and to say that our girl is a bundle of energy would be an understatement. For that reason, I do my best to walk her twice a day. It’s good for all of us, and let’s remember that I want to keep my sanity as well. She…

Dog Behavior And Training Group Classes – Annapolis, MD.
Last year I started to foster dogs for Baltimore Animal Rescue and Care Shelter, Barcs, and I was able to place a puppy, Avril, in her forever home. Was I sad to see her go? Totally. But happy that she had a family of her own. Later on, I started to think that I should…
Zoe And Loose Leash Walking
Could you believe that one of the most requested session I get is for loose leash walking? Yes, I was surprised too and that is why I include it in my Behavior and Training LV1 because if you don’t exercise your dog and you expect her to listen to you, well, let me tell you that…
Dogs, Holidays, Headaches And Solutions
Do you know what I noticed recently? That my dogs, Abby, Charlie and Zoe, by the end of the holidays are not as well behaved as other times of the year. By the way, I take 100% responsibility for their unruliness. I, as a dog trainer, know that consistency, boundaries, exercise etc., is essential for having balanced dogs….
Getting Ready For X-Mas 2023
We already put up our tree and ornaments for Christmas, but we forgot to check if we had enough accessories for our canines, and you know what? We did! Btw, the one that kept her accessory on longer and without any complaints was, drumroll please, Zoe! One interesting observation, there were 2 beds available, although…
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…
Upper 70’s In Maryland!

Go Away Ophelia!
The above picture was taken yesterday, 9/25/23, and because of Ophelia we will have a few more days of rain. Not crazy about that, but we were still able to walk. One of the many things I have realized by having dogs is that you have to figure things out in order to make sure…

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…
