Imperial Beach has never looked better. The southernmost beach town in California sits just five miles north of the Mexico border and features an impressive 4-mile stretch of beach. Head to IB for great surfing, sport fishing, beach volleyball, and horseback riding along the water. In the mood for something more low-key? Try bird watching at the Tijuana River National Estuary, lounging by the pier, or bicycling down the Silver Strand. ⁠And don't leave without stopping to admire the sweeping views of the Los Coronados Islands.⁠

Last week someone commented on one of my posts that I was a “trainer with a novice mindset”.
(If that person is reading this - thank you for the remark.
I am pretty certain it was intended as an insult but I have reflected on it at length and have benefitted from the insights that have come with it.)
I have to say that some of my most joyful moments in teaching dog training happened with total beginners.
A retired couple who got their very first puppy.
The teenage girl who adopted a Border Collie from the shelter and wanted to teach her a hundred tricks.
The widower who took over his neighbor’s dog to accompany him on hikes.
It’s a real pleasure to work with novices. They are hungry for knowledge, they understand that they don’t know much at all yet, they are humble and they are striving to become better every day.
And really - that is the attitude I have when it comes to my own training. I don’t know everything.
In fact, I *know* that there are many more things I don’t yet know … than the ones I do know.
I try to become a better trainer. Every. Single. Day.
I train my own dogs every day. I video and analyze the sessions. I work with other trainers, I take seminars, I go to competitions …
This dog training thing is not about reaching a certain stagnant level of mastery.
For me, it is about learning as much as I can and sharing the knowledge I have with others - while realizing that there are so many aspects I have yet to discover and understand more deeply.
And personally I find it way more pleasant to be around people who are humble and encourage others … than around the ones that boast about their own skills and put everyone else down.
So thank you to the stranger for the comment on the novice mindset.
It’s actually exactly what I have and what I hope to always have.
Happy Training :)

We almost missed dog walker appreciation day. We love all our dog walkers and the enthusiasm and love for animals they bring to the job ❤️.

The bad news: it’s hot out. Uncomfortably hot out. (For San Diego natives accustomed to balmy blue skies and 75 degrees, we might even say it’s hellishly hot out, if we’re feeling especially dramatic.) And it’s going to stay that way. Temps tomorrow are expected to peak at 98 degrees.

The good news: we have 70 glorious miles of coastline at our fingertips. Unlimited cliffs to walk. Unlimited cool water to wade in. And unlimited salty ocean breezes to savor. Pick a beach, any beach, and revel in nature’s A/C.
