Dog Training….Unraveled
We went to Las Vegas this weekend. One last grown up trip before we get baby. It was fabulous. We were lazy and slept all day.
Vegas really is a culture all it’s own. Within the first 20 minutes, before we had even checked in, I saw some lady vomit into her hand and all over […]

Kids being kids though, I certainly wouldn’t be surprised if I have to utter these words in her direction.
1) Please don’t eat the snails.
2) Good girl for pooping outside!
3) Stop scrounging under the birdcage.
4) Did you piss on the couch again?
5) Stop nose raping the cat! (For Teak, and her incessant need to try to […]

Have a fun new client. Something actually challenging instead of you average jumping up, peeing in the house pet. A darling little corgi, who very easy going until someone turns on a ceiling fan, the microwave, or the computer printer. Then he turns into psycho killer herding dog who will keep that darn ceiling fan […]

Since I’ve posted, mostly because we ushered in the month of April with NINE dogs here. Yes, nine, as in, way too many to keep track of. I survived it, barely, and life is now returning to normal. Well, as normal as it can be when you live with a small but determined animal who […]

Heehee - my dog cracks me up. Sometimes I am glad I don’t have a yard so I don’t have to teach Dyson that it’s not always appropriate to dig. The canyon is free game - he can dig till his hearts content.
While the rest of the world waits breathlessly for spring to start sharing […]

Hey Internet, Dave sent me this
“here’s to hoping your (human) baby does not get shredded and eaten by your dogs. if so, you’ll know who’s fault it is.”
Not only does he use proper capitalization, he’s so kind and caring in his wishes. Apparently Dave doesn’t have much to do if he’s sending cranky emails to […]

I happened to look down at Jester today and suddenly realized it’s been ten years. Ten years that he has faithfully followed me around, indulging in my every whim, making sure no crumbs are left sad and homeless, dutifully curling up next to me every night under the covers. Ten years. That’s a long time. […]

With people who book their dog for a stay at my HOME, not a kennel, over a month in advance, and then call THE DAY BEFORE THE DOG IS TO BE HERE and cancel. Never mind that I was counting on that money, or that I turned down other dogs because I limit the number […]

This post pretty much sums it up. Because this kind of shit really happens, people really are THAT dumb.
Check back into her training children posts, and you will wonder if she is actually a dog trainer in disguise. Just swap out child for dog and you have a perfect plan for training everyone in […]

During a lesson I asked about a puppy’s daily routine - reply “Well, she’s in the house all the time except when she’s not.”
Huh?
