Here is a friendly reminder that while yes, tons of dogs are being abandoned to the elements to fend for themselves; it’s not always the case. If you find a dog it’s important to make every effort to find an owner that may be searching for and missing their dogs.

For these two lucky pups, we picked them up and they in fact have family missing and looking for them.

Really awesome rescue class today. We’ve been consistently having a good turn out but always room for more folks. The more people that come, the better the outcome for the dogs.

As a special bonus, Licorice had her first meeting with an interested adopter today and she did really awesome.

A couple of days ago, I shared how Frank has truly blossomed after spending several weeks in foster care. For the dogs here, life with me is structured and predictable—I ensure their primary needs are met, and they have stability. But no matter how much I do, there’s only so much one person can provide. What these dogs truly need is a home with someone who can dedicate time just to them.

That’s where the real magic happens.

Take this sweet pup from Arley’s litter, for example. She went into foster care last weekend, and the transformation is already amazing. With one-on-one attention, a cozy home, and a little love, her personality is shining brighter than ever. Check out these pictures to see how wonderful she’s doing!

Hey folks, rescue class this Sunday at 1pm. There will be people meeting the pups for a possible addition the their little family. Another pup may go into foster care.

I do see rain in the forecast for the day so will be keeping an eye on that.

When it comes to understanding our dogs, emotions are a crucial piece of the puzzle. But have you ever stopped to ask, What actually is an emotion?

For the section on dog emotions in my training manual, I dove deep—not just into what emotions dogs might experience, but into the very nature of emotions themselves. What is required to experience an emotion like anger, joy, or fear? While we all have a feeling tied to the word “anger,” defining it scientifically and understanding how it functions in the brain is an entirely different challenge.

My bookshelf for this project has grown substantially, featuring works that explore human and animal emotions, neurobiology, and behavioral science. These books have helped shape my understanding of how dogs process and express emotions, and how those emotions impact their behavior and relationships with us.

This research isn’t just academic—it’s practical. By better understanding emotions, we can train and live with our dogs in ways that truly respect their experience of the world.

How is Frank doing after almost a week in foster care? The family reports that he has relied on the resident dog to learn his new routine. Of course we knew that would be the case, that’s why he needs another dog to already be living in an adopters home.

I took Frank for a walk yesterday with his friends and he was so excited to go with us. He licked Arley’s face so hard. I was happy to see how glad he was to get back to the foster home as well.

The purpose of the touch games I was playing with Frank is in the ease of replicability and the lady has been playing those games with him. Yesterday she let me know that Frank in the last couple of days has offered up a couple of unsolicited snuggles. Good boy Frank.

Thanks to the folks that have been offering and actively helping with dogs in any capacity recently so that Silke and I could more easily bring our third daughter into the world which we did late last night. Mom and baby are recovering and I’ve we are mostly closed for today outside of basic operations.

As always, Clearlake Animal Association much appreciated for the support. I won’t name the many individuals who have been helping because I don’t have anyone’s permission to do that.

Arley’s pup in foster care

Having a great time

I haven’t been posting much lately because everything is hectic having a new baby and the holiday season in full swing. That said, I wanted to post an update about Frank. Going into a foster home was amazing for him, he came back way more outgoing and playful. Here he is actually playing with me, no food involved. I can do plenty to get these hopeless dogs started but the reality is they need individual time in a real home to truly get the work done.

Sunshine in the morning is always something to celebrate if you’re a dog. Or if you are a human cleaning up after dogs.

Frank living the normal dog life in foster care. This good boy is coming back to me this week when his foster family leaves town. Still searching for his happily ever after. It’s been a real tough journey for this good boy but he’d love to settle down in a home with another dog.

When Licorice is with people she knows she’s a really “normal” dog. When she’s around strangers, if she has the chance, she runs away from the stranger danger. If she’s bought and can’t run away, she gives up and “hopes for the best.”

The gang is thrilled to have done sum this morning. Noticeably absent is Frank. In another post we’ll look at how his first night in a new house is going.

Feeding time is always everyone’s favorite time. Look at everyone’s tails go, big dogs and small puppies both. In fairness, if I had a tail, it would look the same during feeding time.

Rescue dog training every Sunday meeting at Howarth Park in Santa Rosa.

Arley’s baby’s are starting to learn the big dogs. Until now I’ve only had them with dogs that really like puppies. Now they’ll get to experience a much broader range of communication and emotion.

It won’t be long before the puppies can jump@on the couch with uncle Frank and he’ll get his puppy pile.

I’ve been watching this pup for a while thinking he’s very insecure, doesn’t want to be a part of things, and generally hesitant. Last night I realized I’ve misjudged. Now I’m pretty certain he can’t see.
