Dogs are loved in Spain.

Interesting looking dog in Azofra Spain. He sat quietly across from the cafe while noisy pilgrams carried on with their morning breakfast.

Perhaps this is a retired guard dog.

This little fellow sits quietly at his front door in the heart of St Jean Pied de Port France as masses of stangers walk past him noisely.

What happens when you share balanced dog training techniques with willing pupils? The owner and the happy pet take what they learn and share their new found skills with their best friends.

Here is a picture of what happened when Sam and his mom went home this evening and introduced the pleasure of a cot to Remi; a senior cocker spaniel. This is a natural first step to Remi learning the "place" command--he has such a clever mom.

Until I return from my walk across Spain, today was Lucy's last day as my assistant dog trainer. As you can see, she enjoys working with me and especially loved being a mentor to Sam this week. Here are some moments of Lucy assisting me with Sam's training.

Sam walking with his mom this morning. They are both quick studies. As you see, not only is Sam learning heal, he is learning that he should sit when his mom stops--with the slightest leash pressure, he sits down. In time, when his mom stops, he will sit down without the
gentle reminder.

I had to say goodbye to my pack of friends yesterday. My mum leaves to walk across Spain in early May. She starts in St. Jean Pied de Port France and crosses the Great Pyrenees mountains on to Santiago Spain. During her journey, my dad, Romeo and I will stay home and watch the fort--as a Boxer, I'm a natural watch dog. ❤️ Lucy.

Little Maggie is mastering the "place" command. Basic obedience and outdoor recall training will play a crucial role in making her a more pleasant companion and by keeping her safe--she is learning to resist the temptation to run out of the front door to engage her family in "catch-me-if-you can."

He is an example of dogs knowing their place and remaining calm despite the temptation to play with one another.

My dear new friend Sam sent me these flowers. Good thing my husband isn't jealous of my new four-legged best friend. I love you Sam. You sure know how to melt a lady's heart.

Our cozy sweaters, and a toasty fireside makes for a relaxing Sunday.

Mac was found. Thank you for your help.

Missing.

If you have seen Mac, 10 year old Boston terrier, please let me know so we can reunite him with his family.

These girls enjoyed working hard together this morning and decided to share a bunk.

I'm so fortunate, not only do I have a rewarding career, I'm blessed with wonderful customers.

Keep your pet safe from predators with off--leash recall.

This afternoon, I took Lucy and Kara to Frenchman's bar to cool off in the river. The girls were off-leash while playing along the river and on the secluded path back to the car. While we were walking along the top of the berm, I led the girls down to the left so they could run freely along the path. Suddenly, I saw a coyote just ahead of us. It took just a brief moment to have the girls return to me and put them on-leash. Relieved that these girls are off-leash recall trained, I was able to take this video to document the coyote's behavior.

I have the most wonderful customers. What an awesome way to start my day. My gratitude has no bounds.

Lilly, a mature Springer Spaniel was unbearable to walk. The direction of her walk was geared by the fragrant smells of all critters great and small. These videos provide a glimpse into her short term progress .
