If families have the bandwidth to implement only ONE strategy to keep their dogs and kids safer, my recommendation would be to add baby gates and/or pens to their home.

Safe zones promote harmony between all housemates.

Dogs who are sensitive or nervous love pens and gates because it can mean that unpredictable kids can't approach them without consent.

Kids who are nervous around dogs or who are just learning to become mobile are safer when the dog can't enter their space.

Parents find relief knowing they can do normal household tasks without eyes on the back of their head.

Retractable gates, like this one, can be useful in tight spaces or in awkward sized doorways. They also prevent fingers from being poked through. You should note that some babies or small dogs can sneak underneath if they are motivated enough.

Need more help? I've got you. Just reach out.

Puppy class starts tomorrow! I can't wait to meet some new pups and their people!

A few spots are open in Puppy 1 at Jollytails Resort, if you brought home a new puppy and they are between ages 8-16 weeks, it's a great opportunity to get started with training and socialization, and help with problem solving and prevention!

I use positive reinforcement training to teach skills, problem solve issues, and build your relationship with your new family member.

Topics include potty training, puppy biting, impulse control, loose leash walking, recall, puppy socialization and much more!
