Congrats to Raiin and Croissant! I had so much fun evaluating their Trick Dog videos, from AKC Trick Dog Novice (TKN) all the way to AKC Trick Dog AKC Trick Dog Elite Performer (TKE). Their enthusiasm and skill was fantastic to be a part of.

I was busy making dinner and sometimes, with a 7 month old giant puppy that wants to help, it can be tricky. To keep him busy, while also using his brain and sniffer, it was snuffle mat time! Snuffle mats are amazing for this and I filled this one with cheerios.

This is so frustrating. To protect the child you must protect the dog!

Not all dogs growl or bite when they’re stressed. In fact, many don’t!

Instead, they give subtle signs like yawning, turning away, licking their lips, or stiffening up - hoping you will step in and help.

These signs matter — and noticing them early keeps everyone safer. 🎯

Happy Thanksgiving! Be sure that, amidst all the hustle and bustle, you take time to check in with your pets. Keep them safe, secure and comfortable. Watch those garbage cans, they can be especially tempting today. One trick we've learned is to turn them backwards (facing the wall) so that dogs can't easily lift the lids.

When our first puppy ate something she shouldn't have (on a Sunday, of course) I called the closest ER vet (which was 90 minutes away) and was told me they could give me no information over the phone on what to do until we got there and that it was $500 to walk in the door, not including tests or treatment. Then I called the ASPCA's poison control number and for a fraction of that cost they provided the information that we needed to avoid that long and expensive ER trip all together. We will forever be grateful for their assistance. I always keep this number handy.

View the list of poisonous foods to avoid, including: chocolate, xylitol, alcohol, avocado, coffee, caffeine, citrus, coconut, coconut oil, grapes, raisin, macadamia nuts, milk and dairy.
