Recently we were walking and it was freezing, as per the frozen puddle of water shows, so we decided to take a picture of it. A picture of the frozen puddle of water, in case you think that I was talking about a dog. Anyway, Zoe decided that she wanted to be part of the…

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…
Is A Multi-Dog Household For You?
I never thought I would end up living with 3 dogs of my own. I’ve had up to 5 or 6 dogs at a time, but only 1 belonged to me. And to answer my own question, I’d say that a multi-dog household is the right fit for me right now, the operative word being “now”, and…
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….

Confession Of A Dog Trainer: A Mischievous Dog
We have 3 dogs: Abby, Charlie and Zoe and each one has a particula personality, quirks, dislikes, etc. Now, if you think that because they live with a dog trainer, yours truly, they are almost perfect, well, let me tell that you are wrong. Did I just give you some hope by thinking, “I’m not alone.” I hope…

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…
Zoe Acclimating To A New Family/Pack
It’s been 5 weeks since we picked up Zoe from Barcs.org as a foster dog, and ended up adopting her. She is doing great. Every dog is an individual therefore the acclimation time could be days, weeks or months. And with that in mind, this is how she is doing: I love to see the…
