TOMORROW! Cats are both social and solitary animals. They learn quickly, but they learn differently than dogs. They have specific territorial needs, and their means of showing stress are often subtle.

Understanding your cat can help you decipher litter box issues, smoothly integrate new cats, solve your scratching shenanigans, and make life with your cat more fun!

Come learn more about the secret life of your cat!

[If you'd like to order some of Tyranena - The Fharmacy Public House's delicious food and drinks - yes, you do! - please plan to come a few minutes early so that the session can begin on time. You can eat during the workshop.]

Congratulations to our recent Beyond Basics graduates! This class travels around Lake Mills, meeting at a different location for each lesson. That gave these students an opportunity to practice bike trail manners, long-line recalls, stay skills in a game with other dogs, leash manners at a market, advanced leave it and wait skills, and tricks training. The dogs also got to try out a slide at a local park, and visit the beautiful beer garden at Tyranena Brewing Company: Legendary Wisconsin Beer!

Please say hello to these hard-working hounds: Bodhi, Brodie, Jean Pierre (JP), Maddi$on, Oliver, Phoebe, and Ruby!

In the comments, you'll find a photo series of each student demonstrating a trick/tricks they taught during the series.

Thanks to Tyranena Brewing Company: Legendary Wisconsin Beer for hosting our graduation lessons for this series for the past 14 years!

Congratulations to our most recent Family Dog Manners graduates! We had so much fun working with these families. The dogs were a diverse group, eager to learn, excited to be at class, and some worked hard at not being overwhelmed by the sight of so many dogs and people. From cues like sit, down, stay, and watch, to skills in calling a dog to come, trading a dog for an item, and loose-leash sniffing walks, everyone did a great job. Please say hello to Tikka, Zoe, Leonard, Jill, Rusty, Jameson, Chloe, Juno, and Fritz (not pictured).

Congrats to our most recent Puppy Preschool graduates! These cuties learned how to play well with others, how to be brave, how to have patience when things are exciting and tempting, and how to settle. They also did a great job with leash walking, come, sit, "drop it," "leave it," and other important skills.

Their families learned how to build trust, set boundaries and manage busy puppies, and engage active puppy brains. And we all had a lot of fun!

Please say hello to Archie, Bentley, Farley, Kuma, Nash, Otis, Rocket, and (not pictured) Riley!

You're out walking your dog (or walking alone) and a loose dog comes running toward you. What do you do? How do you handle the situation safely and escape unscathed? What if you want to help the dog get back home?

Learn simple, effective ways of protecting yourself and your dog(s) in this, sometimes frightening, situation. We will also briefly discuss navigating situations like dog parks, where everyone is off-leash at the same time!

Plan to come early, so you can order delicious food and drinks to enjoy during the session!

We all like to have some agency over our lives, and that includes our dogs (and cats). Here at Lake Mills Veterinary Clinic, we create opportunities for our patients to participate in their care. Lennie doesn't like to be contained or restrained (she panics) but she is really smart, loves people, and is very food motivated. So, we taught her how to participate in her care. She has learned to give us a front paw (she also knows "right" and "left") for her nail trim, or to position herself so we can lift a rear paw to trim.

You might wonder why we don't just feed her while we're trimming? We do that with lots of patients who are happy to eat during their care. Lennie prefers to keep handling and eating separate, so we give her food rewards after each little step. She is not on leash and no one is holding onto her, so she can participate or disengage as she chooses.

You'll notice that she is still a little stressed for the actual clip (she licks her lips, turns her head, and even yawns a couple of times). She doesn't love nail trims. But she does love the process of learning to have some control over her care. And, that makes all the difference!
