Here is a throwback blog post- The reason that The Good Pup Project was born. I have to admit, Maizee and I have come a long way in a year- and we have so far to go. But life is about the journey, right? And I am cherishing all the lessons I'm learning from my sweet Maizee, and the ones I'm learning by working with all the wonderful people and dog teams we are blessed to know!

This is The Good Pup Project 🐶, a blog about training good pups! Who’s a good dog? Hopefully mine by the time I’m done. And maybe yours, too!

The holidays are coming! Is your dog ready to greet the guests like a good boy or girl? Now is the time to prepare. New classes are starting in October at The Good Pup Project Dog Training, and private sessions are always available. You can check out the class schedule and sign up at TheGoodPupProject.com! See you at class!

To all my former grooming clients- No, I'm not starting to groom again (Sorry!) BUT- I wanted to let you all know that I have opened a dog training business! The Good Pup Project Dog Training is run right from my home in my former boarding kennel building that is now my little training studio! I offer private sessions here or at your home, and group classes. I will pin the fall class schedule to the top of this page. There are foundation classes like STAR Puppy and Family Dog Obedience, as well as fun things like Tricks class and Sniff it! Nose works from WAG IT! games. If you are looking for positive training, focused on building a stronger relationship with your dog, I would love to help! The only issues I don't address are separation anxiety and dog aggression cases- these I respectfully refer to very qualified experts so you get the help you need. Feel free to share this post with anyone you know in the Southern Maine area who has dog training needs! Thanks and Happy Training!

Thank you for a wonderful twenty years. Pawsibilities is now closed for business...❤️

11/14/2019

Please note: Pawsibilities will be closing for business after Christmas 2019. It really is surreal for me... I have been grooming dogs for over twenty years, and they have been wonderful years. I want to thank you for trusting me with your fur babies. I have loved each one and feel blessed to have known them. Even (actually, especially!) my 'special kids', who didn't necessarily like grooming and challenged me to meet them on their terms and find a way to work with them.

It isn't easy to make this decision, but I think it is time for me to look to a new adventure, whatever that will be. I will be taking appointments until December 27, so give me a call if you'd like to get in before then! 💖🐶💖

Shorter is not better for a double-coated dog... a well groomed double coat is designed to keep them cooler!

I had so much fun spending the day at Leapin' Lizards doing animal communication readings! I met some wonderful people and pets and I thoroughly enjoyed helping them connect! I'll be back again next Sunday and the Sunday after that. Come on in and bring a photo of your animals for a reading of your own!

Do you scold your dog when she growls? Check out the latest Shiny Healthy Dogs blog post to see why that is a bad idea!
https://shinyhealthydogs.com/2018/09/22/listening-to-your-dogs-warning-signals/

All dogs have warning signals they hare before they bite. Problems occur if you don't know how to read those signals, or if you have inadvertently trained those signals right out of your dog.

I got to groom my buddy Patch today. Last year his family moved away and I thought I'd never see him again. I was so thrilled when they came to stay for the summer!!💖💖💖

DID YOU KNOW?? Pawsibilities offers carside service to our customers. Just let me know, and I will be happy to meet you at the car when you get here, and bring your clean dog to your car when we are done!

I got to spend the morning with Charlotte, the sweetest girl you will ever meet. She has that gentle, calm temperment that just makes you want to hug her! I helped her get in touch with her inner labrador today, lol! 💖🐶💖

I am excited to be studying how to use raw nutrition to make our dogs and cats as healthy as they deserve. I find it interesting that those studies are showing me parallels to my own health challenges with diet and allergies over the past year. It turns out that a natural, unprocessed, species appropriate diet is necessary for humans, too!
