Although they are sold as dog chews deer, elk, and moose antlers aren't safe for dogs. They can break teeth and damage a dog's GI tract.

Check out my newest Google and Yelp review:

"Before we met Britta, my partner and I were a few months into living together and trying to integrate my dog and his cat (now our dog and cat). Despite reading countless online resources about how to help a dog and cat get along and attempting various strategies, we weren’t seeing the results we needed. Both our animals were stressed, and we were quickly losing patience. While online resources can be helpful, animal training is unique and highly individualized—it was hard to pinpoint what was going on without an expert.

Enter Britta. From the moment she started working with us, she not only guided us but truly taught us, equipping us with compassionate, effective tools to make our pets feel safe and secure. I can’t fully express the gratitude we have for Britta’s advocacy for the well-being of animals and for empowering us with the right knowledge and resources. Thanks to her, we now understand our pets on a deeper level and have the skills to support them and foster harmony. Britta’s guidance will empower you to build a trusting relationship with your animals and advocate for them. I wholeheartedly recommend Britta to anyone looking to bridge the gap and create a peaceful, happy environment for their animal family members."

I was hired about a month ago to help a couple integrate a new cat into their home with resident cats and I just received these two photos today letting me know that all is going well.

I love being able to help people introduce cats to one another. Preferably before they have gotten the cats and there is trouble.

If you need help with introducing cats or any other behavior issue, please contact me.

Thank you.

This morning I took a picture of my kitty, Alessandra, and when I pointed the camera at her, she did a lip lick. I caught it accidentally, but I thought it was a good opportunity to discuss calming behaviors in animals.

All animals, including humans, exhibit calming behaviors when they are trying to calm themselves or self soothe; calm others, or communicate peaceful intentions, and they’re often missed, not only in human communication, but also in animals.

One of the things that I like to teach my clients about is the importance of recognizing calming signals as a precursor to stress. That way, you can help them out and be their advocate.

Contact me if you need help understanding your animal better.

Check out my newest review on Yelp from Adrian:

“What a great training session with Britta! From the initial email she was extremely thorough with her communication. She’s extremely detailed in the information she gathers to get a precise description of what is transpiring in the home. She came prepared with a personalized book for our family. We read through the information so my husband and I could understand. She left step-by-step guidelines for us and a plan of attack to integrate all of our cats. She will do follow up visits and genuinely cares about the welfare of the cats. We are extremely pleased with her and would recommend her to anybody who is looking to understand cats and how their cats minds work. She made lots of recommendations and gave us plenty to work with to have a peaceful coexistence in our home.”

I stress the importance of body language all the time! It is so very important with all animals, not just dogs.

I love this quote from the article, "Given how important body language is, why is it that beginner dog training classes never seem to spend any time on it? I suspect the answer is that we humans are in a rush to learn something that feels “real” and seems obviously helpful, like sit or stay."

The key to dog body language is recognizing stress signals, and understanding what our own body language communicates to our dogs.

One of my favorite things to do is care for animals. I don’t get to do it often but it brings me so much joy.

When I worked at the zoo I was in great shape from cleaning enclosures. Today I remembered what hard work it is but also so fulfilling and therapeutic.

I had to throw in the p**p photo because that’s a big part of the job. 😀 Cleaning up horse p**p is nothing like cleaning up elephant p**p! Now that’s a lot of work 😅

To all my fellow , owners trainers and behaviourists. I see you.

I love being a I'm saying that it's literally the tip of the iceberg! I know what's going on underneath the water, I know what's going on in the background.

We do so much more than just toss food.

You are doing a great job keep it up.

People can and will say mean things. It can be demoralising and hard.
But don't let anyone else tell you other methods are better. This works. Science is on our side. We got you.

I like to use elevated beds for lots of different training scenarios. It gives the dog a very clear and distinct place to go and perform an alternate behavior, in lieu of jumping, barking, being underfoot in the kitchen, or trying to attack the bigger dog in the house 😅, etc. and it’s a fun behavior to shape.
