EDIT:
Wish is 90 pounds and a size 2XL fit her perfect.

We really love and highly recommend this rain coat. It’s made well and has a D-Ring hole for your harness and leash to attach through. There are rear leg straps so the coat doesn’t blow up on the dog’s back. I am not an affiliate and I get no money recommending this coat. Link below:

We worked with Emma and her human mom last week doing some counter conditioning to cars which can make Emma worried. We also played some games that provide a predictable framework of safety for Emma and allows her to process the scary cars without having to look directly at them. This team has done their homework and the progress shines! See you next week!

We began working with Lacy a few weeks ago. She was recently adopted from her breeder at four months old. Potty training had been a challenge but has since resolved YAY! Lacy has shown a fearfulness of the leash but doing some counter conditioning and providing virtual support has helped her over come 90% of her concerns. We are currently working on and . It has been such a pleasure working with this team🩵
