🐾 Remembering the 9/11 Working Dogs 🐾

As we reflect on September 11th, we honor not only the human heroes, but also the more than 300 working dogs who served at Ground Zero.

These dogs searched through rubble, guided rescue teams, and brought comfort to exhausted first responders. They worked tirelessly alongside their handlers, offering hope when it was needed most.

Some became legends: Bretagne, the golden retriever who searched tirelessly and later became a therapy dog for survivors; and Sirius, the loyal police K9 who gave his life that day. Their stories, and those of so many others, remind us of the incredible bond between people and dogs—a bond built on trust, devotion, and love.

That same bond is alive in the dogs who share our homes today. While they may never face the rubble of a disaster, their loyalty, comfort, and joy remind us daily of the gifts dogs bring to our lives.

Today, we remember and honor those canine heroes, their handlers, and all the lives they touched. šŸ•ŠļøšŸ¾

Life changes impact our dogs too 🐾

The past couple of months have been full of big shifts for me. My five year relationship ended šŸ’”, I was in between living situations šŸ āž”ļøā“, and I finally landed in a new place šŸ›‹ļø.

During all that, training with my own dogs took a back seat. I kept up the basic structure and rules, but formal sessions just weren’t happening. I was stressed and they were feeling it too.

Now that we’re more settled, it’s clear they’re adjusting. We’re dusting off the cobwebs šŸ•øļø on things like threshold manners (waiting at the door before going out 🚪), learning the roommate’s cat is not a toy 🐱, and figuring out how to live peacefully with two new housemate dogs — a Dalmatian 🐶 and a Corgi šŸ•. The integration process takes time, and that’s okay.

If you’ve been going through life changes and training has slipped through the cracks, I get it. It happens. You’re not behind. Your dog isn’t broken. You’re both just adapting ā¤ļøā€šŸ©¹

If it feels like a lot and you’re not sure where to start, reach out. I’d love to help you create a doable plan that supports both you and your dog šŸ’¬āœØ

Puppy fever: cured (for now). I got to spend some time with the sweetest little 12-week-old Shih Tzu Maltese mix named Moet. His family was dealing with a family emergency so I stepped in to care for him and we made the most of our puppy time together

We went on some socialization adventures which means safe positive exposure to new people sounds environments and a few calm puppy-safe adult dogs.

Socialization is not about turning your puppy into everyone's best friend. It’s not about letting strangers overwhelm them or introducing them to every dog on the street. It’s about helping them learn the world is a safe place full of interesting things

Moet handled everything like a champ. He explored with curiosity, showed healthy caution when needed, and gained confidence with every new experience.

If you have a puppy, start early go at their pace and keep the focus on positive experiences. Quality over quantity always

Most people think dog training means carrying treats around forever.
But food is just one piece of the puzzle.

Your dog has a whole world of preferences you might not have even noticed yet.

Some dogs would choose a favorite toy over any treat. Others get lit up by the chance to chase a ball, sniff a bush, or just get to do something fun.

The truth is, you don’t have to bribe your dog into listening.
It’s about understanding what actually motivates them—and using that to build connection.

Because here’s the thing: motivation is like gas in a car.
Without it, you're not going anywhere—no matter how well-built the engine is.
The trick is finding the right fuel for your dog.

A dog who’s truly engaged isn’t thinking, what do I get if I do this?
They’re thinking, I love this—we’re doing it together.

That’s the difference between training that feels like a chore… and a relationship that feels like a partnership.

Your dog is already telling you what they love—through their choices, their reactions, the things they light up for.

You just have to pay attention.

Training Is More Than You Think

ā€œTrainingā€ sounds so simple—but what I actually do with clients is so much more than just teaching a dog to sit or stay.

Yes, obedience is part of it. But most of the time, I’m:

🐾A peacekeeper—helping bridge the gap between your expectations and your dog’s instincts.
🐾An enrichment coordinator—coming up with ways to keep your dog’s brain busy when it’s 100° outside and no one wants to walk.
🐾A sounding board—when you’re frustrated and tired and wondering if you’re doing it all wrong.
🐾A goal setter—so you can focus on progress instead of panicking over every little thing.
🐾A translator—decoding what your dog is really trying to say with those behaviors.
🐾A juggler—of your schedule, your family’s needs, your dog’s quirks, and real-life limitations.

When someone says, ā€œI just want my dog to listen,ā€ what they usually mean is: I just want things to feel easier and more peaceful at home.

That’s not just about obedience—it’s about connection. It’s about building a relationship that works for both of you.

That’s the part I really love.

When is safe and convenient to so, it’s nice to let our dogs get as smelly and dirty as they like.

Letting them practice natural behaviours at appropriate times gives them the outlets they need.
