While I’m not a huge fan of dressing up dogs–these were just too cute to pass up! For your viewing pleasure: “Lady” Daisy “Convict” Zeke:

Here are Momma’s little pumpkins getting ready to celebrate pumpkin season (Halloween, Thanksgiving, etc.)! Check back tomorrow for this year’s Halloween photos! Also, just a quick behavior and training update: Our holiday-time pet sitting service visited earlier this week, and we followed the doctor’s orders by greeting our guests on leash outside, having the guests [...]

Daisy and Zeke are getting a bit stir crazy since Mom has been sick and home almost the entire week. Though a bit bored and restless, it hasn’t stopped either dog from getting his or her beauty rest… And today, they’ve decided to share their bed and toys and simply, peacefully co-exist… Does anyone want [...]
In following doctor’s orders, Mom has purchased a couple new area rugs to help Daisy and Zeke feel more secure in their footing at home, especially when visitors are over… So far, things are going well!
Zeke Ate My Shoe…

Mom was surprised to be greeted at the gate by Zeke one evening when she got home. Either Daisy released him from his crate, or he has figured out how to get out. Daisy has released crated dogs in the past, so this is not surprising. However, Zeke did leave a surprise for Mom. He [...]

Behaviorist Update

Zeke and Daisy had a home visit with a behaviorist veterinarian who is Board certified by the American College of Veterinary Behavior. Clients often call a behaviorist when the usual training methods fail or when a dog’s behavior becomes worse or isn’t improving at a steady rate. In our case, Zeke’s behavior interacting with Mom’s boyfriend [...]
Another Successful Playdate!

Zeke met a 12-year-old, Shepherd mix (who trains at the same agility center as us) this afternoon, and they played very well together. She chased Zeke around the fenced yard for about an hour. Zeke also smelled every inch of the yard and got to play with an agility tunnel. His lady friend tolerated some [...]
Reactivity Update

Daisy, Zeke and Mom returned to the park to walk this evening with great success! We did see two other dogs walking together, but we walked away from them, and everyone stayed calm watching in the distance. Zeke was completely freaked out by the skate park, so we had to change our path a bit, [...]
