Attn Florida friends and beyond! This beautiful dog was dumped, and my friend in Central Florida is caring for him temporarily. He's about 6 months old and so far has been very appropriate with other dogs and sweet with everyone he has met! He is desperate for a permanent home. Please share with anyone that might be interested in a very handsome and friendly pup!

This beautiful girl is looking for a more appropriate home. She is really a sweet girl with her people and would be a great companion for an active someone without other pets. She is a special needs dog who needs an experienced owner. If you are interested in meeting Finnley, message me and I will put you in touch with her current owners.

Here is what they have to say about the joys and challenges of Finnley:

"Finnley is an Australian Shepherd/ Australian Cattle Dog/Border Collie mix. 2.5 years old. She is a loving and loyal companion to her humans, but she has some issues that make her unable to live with us any longer. We are a multi pet household of dogs chickens and cats….Finnley needs to be an “only” dog. She has food aggression, ie, once you give her food, you can’t take it back or reach towards the bowl at all. She has gate/fence aggression to strangers and other dogs. She will bite (class 1) strangers if they insist on continuing to reach over the gate or try to pet her. She can not be with other dogs because she will fight. No exceptions to that rule even if she “seems” to be best buds with a dog, she WILL fight them and it’s bad. She is muzzle trained, up to date on shots, and spayed. If you are up for the challenge please consider Finnley. I have tried to find a no kill shelter and have had no luck so far. Right now, Finnley is separated from the rest of our animals and definitely not living her best life. Thank you for considering her:)"

Dogs are amazing and they know so much about the world that we will never know or understand.

What is the thing that you do with your dog that allows them to fully "be a dog"?

For me, I love to see a dog just moseying around in nature. Sniffing this, sniffing that. Eating a little grass here and there, drinking from a stream. Maybe that's because that's very similar to what I like to do and what I feel lets me fully "be a human".

I am constantly monitoring my dogs' body condition and changing their daily food amounts accordingly. Dogs' metabolisms change throughout their lives just like ours. The only way to know if you are feeding the right amount is to look at your dog!

Roan Mountain is Wilson's "home hike". Roan was where I really put in the time to train him how to be calm when he saw other dogs. He is his best self there, as a result. He can still be anxious in other settings sometimes, but when we are atop the Roan, he shines. 🧡

Jax is going on vacation with his family soon! I love traveling with dogs but there are some important skills I like to train before departing. Jax is working this week on how to relax on a mat, how to stay with distractions, and brushing up on "leave it" before he goes on his adventure.
Planning ahead with skills training can really make or break a trip with your dog, so plan ahead!

I've been fascinated with canine nutrition for a while. It bothered me that I was trying my best to avoid processed food for myself (with varying degrees of success) but at the same time feeding my dog the ultimate processed meals: kibble. Now, no shame in kibble. People have busy lives and kibble provides convenience and a good chance your dog is getting the nutrients they need to survive.
But I do believe that as natural and whole foods are best for us, they are also best for our dogs. I am not ready, or educated enough to be making my own whole food diets yet, I'm doing what I can, and that right now looks like topping my kibble with healthy additions.
Over the last few months, I have seen improvements, in Wilson especially. His skin allergies are better, his anxiety is better (marginally...), and his p**p is better (he has a history of GI issues). Over the next few months, I hope to transition even further into the whole food feeding life!
This bowl includes: 2 types of kibble watered down, chicken liver, a duck egg, microgreens, blueberries, and goat kefir.

In my opinion, walking dogs together without interaction is one of the best ways to get over shyness, over excitement, or even reactivity. Teaching the dogs that there is no threat and no opportunity for play can really make a big difference. We call these "pack walks" and if your goal is to get your dog to be calm around other dogs, give it a try!

Wilson is the best farm dog anyone could ask for!

Cute Kevin is learning to relax and feel safe in an overwhelming world. So many dogs don't understand all the loud noises and big shapes in our human world. Our job is to expose them slowly to these things and help them understand that they are safe and that we have everything under control. I'm really proud of this brave boy and how far he has come! 🧡

Loki's new "puppy apartment"- he loves it!
Having an area where you can isolate your puppy from aaaallll the tempting and stimulating things in the house is so important. It also gives you a break from the constant supervision that puppies require. This is the easiest way to make your life easier when you have an energetic pup in the house!

Scout and Wilson: This is the first time these two have met, and they both have a history of BIG FEELINGS about other dogs. I am so proud of them both- Scout especially, who has come so far in the last year! These pictures just go to show what's possible with consistency and patience.

If you had told me a few years ago that I would be using Wilson as a "neutral dog" in reactivity cases I would have laughed.

Today was a good day. 🧡
