“When we pay attention, we’re making an investment in someone else. And that’s the basis of compassion, in a lot of ways.”
— Steve Burns, former “Blue’s Clues” host

Pay attention to your dogs. Pay attention to each other. We ALL need compassion. We can build everything else from there…together.

I need your dog photos!!😃

If I have ever helped you with your dog, I'd love to put your dog on my training website!

Please send me some pictures that highlight your dog - happy, working, playing, relaxing, just being themselves. Show off what they've learned!🙂 And you're welcome to be in the pictures! It would be nice to see you too.😀

Clear, well-lit photos with an uncluttered background are going to work best. And you'll need to include permission for me to use the picture from the person who took it, even if that's you.

Don't forget to send me a note about how well you and your dog are doing! I have a space for Testimonials and would be grateful if you'd like to share how I've helped you.

Please e-mail these to me as soon as you can:

Check out my new clickers!

These will replace my Mungo’s Books clickers for training clients, moving forward.

If you want one, it comes with an excellent dog trainer!😉

This is an important concept to be mindful of in all aspects of our lives, but I think that we need to be reminded when it comes to our dogs.

How their days go and how they feel is very much in our hands. That’s a great responsibility.

I want a partnership with my dogs, and that is all about communication and respect.

I am grateful for the deep connection that I have had with each of my dogs, and this is one of the reasons that I love to help people to connect even better with their own dogs.

I was in Edmonton for a seminar on the weekend. The speaker was great, the networking was worth the trip, and I was sharing knowledge with my dog training colleagues with Mungo’s Books.

For those interested in what continuing education looks like for a professional dog trainer, the seminar was “Predatory Substitute Training” presented by German dog trainer, Simone Mueller.

And for those really interested, you can get her books in Canada at Mungo's Books for Dog People (me).

Hint:
The solution starts with the relationship-building that you & your dog do with me.🙂

Now, get some extra training done before the long weekend is over! 😉

If you’re interested in seeing some of the very specific and fascinating dog book titles that are available these days, I’m featuring some of the books that I carry at Mungo's Books for Dog People.

I curate these books for professional dog trainers, serious dog enthusiasts and people who just love dogs.

This is the latest knowledge that we have about living with and working with dogs.

When we know better, we do better.❤️

A cancer diagnosis is something that loved ones in my little circle are living with and journeying through. It changes your perspective and affects how you view everything that lies before you. It reminds us that there is so much that is not within our control. And it always feels incredibly unfair.

It makes me feel helpless, because I desperately wish that I could do more.

This. This run is what I can do, and I do it every year. Raising funds for cancer research feels like something that might be a part of making a real difference. It's small, but if I can encourage other people to contribute to my effort, then we can all do more together.

I run in the name of my friend, Aileen, and my mum's dear friend, Ann. I run for Greg, Patrick, Barb, John, Mike, Kristin, Susan, Mena, Anthony, Linda and so many people now that I can't even list them all here. I run for my amazing friends and family members who have chosen to keep their journeys private. And I run so proudly for hope, because we all need that.

Please consider a donation to the Terry Fox Foundation in the name of somebody you love. If you share their name with me, I will hold them in my thoughts while I run on September 15th.

With love and thanks,

Look how cute this dog is!!!🥰

Jake recently had his last training session with me and was a star! (So was his person!😉)

This client booked their training early in Jake’s puppyhood, so that they could start out on the right paw and had answers to all of their questions along the way.

Early training guidance is the best investment that you can make in your dog.❤️
