Besties having an absolute blast together.
2.1/2 hrs of pure joy, swimming, sniffing, rock climbing wrestling and all without humans interfering.
We just kept a watching eye and stayed in the moment with them.

INATD Bark out newsletter -

Well it's only Spring yet feels like summer already so I guess this means we are going to have a stinker of a summer.  While we humans can take off a few layers or grab an iced coffee to beat the heat, our K9 buddy rely on us to help them stay safe and comfortable in rising temperatures.

Decoding the Dog Tail

Consistency is the key to teaching your K9 buddy.
If your behaviour is predictable then your K9 buddy’s behaviour becomes predictable.
Dogs don’t just need structure they love structure.

This gorgeous re-homed labradoodle used to love landscaping so now he has his very own digging pit and he is as happy as a pig in mud.
He truly is living his best life and I am enjoying watching him grow and his personality shine 🐾❤️
Do you have a digger?

When you can understand k9 lingo you can listen in on your dog’s conversations and know when to assist and step in if needed.
Some people have had dogs for years and are still clueless in k9 lingo.
Training your dog is not and should not be your number one priority, learning k9 lingo should be.
Don’t you owe it to your dog I mean they are doing their absolute best to understand your human language.
Want to learn? Then reach out private sessions and workshops available.

Tonight I light an extra candle for a special old boy🐾❤
No words can truly capture the love, loyalty, and joy a dog brings into your life. From tail wags to quiet cuddles, all the ups and downs of life, and they were there through it all.
Losing them hurts more than you imagined.
Tonight give your K9 buddy an extra cuddle and treat, and take a quiet moment to think of those that are grieving for their loss and for those that are caring for their unwell K9 Buddy.
There is no other love like a dogs love.
