As I pivot all of my in-person services to NOCO Unleashed, I have decided to keep Dogs Deciphered as an educational resource for pet owners as well as pet professionals. I will be starting a webinar series, where I will cover one topic every month relating to dog behavior and training. It is my hope to create a low cost educational opportunities, and have a wide reach so that anyone who is in need of this information can access it.

I invite you to join me for my first webinar, which will be presented Monday, October 25th at 5:30pm MT. I will be talking about one of my favorite topics, Back Door Solutions, or what to do when what you are trying isn't working! If you are interested in learning more, you can register at https://dogs-deciphered-online.thinkific.com/. A recording will be available after the presentation, and all registrants will get ongoing access to the recording.

Thanks for sharing this great information Kit!

Today is Disabled Pets Day! I've seen a lot of folks calling it "Specially-Abled Pets Day" and I wanted to share why I think it's important to consider the words we use. It's actually pretty difficult to find a disabled adult out there who prefers being called "specially-abled" or "handicapable." So, what's the reason for this?
::
I think it's because using these terms instead of just using "disabled" implies that disability is inherently bad and we need to change it. It also infantilizes disabled individuals. The reality is that disability exists on a spectrum. There are disabled people who need full-time caretakers and there are disabled people who work full time -- not unlike how disability also exists on a wide spectrum within the world of pets!
::
I think it's important to change this language because when we use things like "specially-abled," we teach other people that this is the proper language to use when it's actually the language that is often harmful to disabled people. So, today I will celebrate Dylan (who is truly one of the loves of my life), who has numerous disabilities. Not only is he a badass for dealing with what life throws his way, but he is just an amazing dang dog. Happy Disabled Pets Day to everyone out there -- consider not only adopting dogs with disabilities, but also please consider the language you use and why!
