About me: My name is Erin Marion, I have been around dogs since I was born in Chester Springs Pennsylvania. I built my business from

the ground up in Portland, Oregon and now I am back to my roots in PA! When I was little all of my favorite memories were stuffing my nose into any dog book or animal book I could find. Raised with an 80lb Bouvier De Flandres, I never had a fear of dogs or animals (considering our family dog looked like a bear). Her unique outlook on animal behavior opened my eyes to seeing animals differently. Once I adopted my first dog who suffered from extreme separation anxiety, leash aggression and much more I started to obsess over all there was about dogs and being a good dog owner to a high energy canine. Eleven years later I have taken every seminar, class, one-on-one talk, and even my own clients experience and have molded them into my training method. I make sure every client feels heard, respected and appreciated ! I am here to help you and your dog become a team. Yes, training the dog is a part of it, but truly this is me training you to strengthen your commands, body language, and appreciation for your dog and for yourself. I specialize in helping deaf and blind dog guardians create a unique and special language to be able to communicate with their dog effectively. I am also an official training partner for Speak! St Louis and All 4 Paws rescues. For training questions email :

From my family to yours, I want to wish you all a joyful holiday season! While the festivities are still a few weeks away, I wanted to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude to my clients, followers, and supporters.

Thank you for believing in the incredible potential of deaf, blind, and deaf-blind dogs, and for supporting the power of positive reinforcement training. Your trust means the world to me, my family, and this small business that I’m so proud to share with you.

Wishing you a season filled with love, warmth, and happy moments with your furry friends!

—The Down to Earth family

🎄 The holidays are a wonderful time to get together with family and friends, and for many of us, this also includes our beloved dogs. While our dogs are such an important part of our lives and celebrations, there can be dog-related challenges around the holidays that may add stress to an already busy time.

Deb and Erin know what it’s like to blend multiple dogs and human family members into one space, and they’re coming together to share their collective knowledge and experience so that you, your dog, and your family are all able to have a harmonious holiday season! ❤

Dogs with sensory differences may perceive the people, events, and traditions that we love differently than we might expect. And keeping them safe and comfortable will go a long way toward helping everything run smoothly. Taking the time to consider your blind and/or deaf dog’s needs during holiday festivities will allow for fewer challenges and more ease for everyone.

Whether this is your very first holiday season with your dog, or you’ve done this many times before, you’re going to take away some amazing tips and tricks from this next episode of Sensory Paws: Harmonious Holidays!

You’ll learn how to:
🔹Encourage polite behavior with guests
🔹Plan for traveling with your dog
🔹Handle the logistics - what to do around all the food, decorations, safety at the door, etc.
🔹Keep everyone’s stress levels low
🔹Introduce your dog to visiting children or other dogs

Please register early, as space may be limited, and so you can submit your question for Deb and Erin to answer during the call!

What: Sensory Paws, Episode 6 - Harmonious Holidays
When: Nov, 22nd, 4:30 pm ET

Where: Zoom, Recording available to all who register!

We could really use your help!

Stevie’s foster family, and I are working together to make sure that he has plenty of enrichment, training, a place to run and play with friends and a safe temporary home. But with that also comes limited funding! Because we are not working through a rescue and are doing this on our own we could really use your help.

Stevie‘s recent vet visit was $650.00. I know asking for help around the holidays can be hard so any amount that you are willing to share would be so incredibly helpful! I will also be posting in the next couple weeks in Amazon wishlist for Stevie for Christmas! If you are unable to adopt this is one way you can help this sweet boy.

🟢Venmo his foster family directly at: -Abruzzese
Or the link is in my bio!

🟢If you do not have Venmo you can PayPal me at:
[email protected]

🟢Label all donations as “FOR STEVIE”

Thank you so much!

Holiday day camp, board and train, and weekend sleepovers are now available on the farm! Would you like to have your dog enjoy some time away from the chaos of the holidays? This could be a great opportunity for your dog to play, run and get some energy out while guests arrive at your house. It also provides a safe location for your dog so that you don’t have to worry about what they can get into, who they’ll jump on or what may overwhelm them in a busy holiday household.

Slots are very limited as I want to be able to give all holiday dogs one on one time and attention.

PLEASE SHARE!! ‼️‼️‼️

Stevie has been in and out of foster care his entire life to no fault of his own. Even though this may seem sad it isn’t, it has given us an opportunity to learn a lot about him. I know the right household is out there! Please contact me directly for information about Stevie!

🟢Stevie learns very quickly
🟢 He is very social and loves meeting new people and dogs
🟢Knows all of his basic cues
🟢 Loves playing with other dogs but will need assistance on how to learn your households routine

🔴No cats!!
🔴 Will take time to build a routine - can get restless during the first month while he’s learning
🔴 Needs extra energy outlets and does best with a backyard
🔴 Needs time and a routine to learn being alone is safe
🔴 Can be mouthy when trying to initiate play or communicate something. His foster home and I can coach you through how to work through these moments!
