What a tough year 2020 has been. And just as devastating as all of the loss of human life, the loss of a beloved pet has been especially difficult this year. As a human who has worked with vets, trainers, and pets for over 20 years, and as a human who has said goodbye to many personal pets - I've joined forces with some like minded women to co-faciitate a Grief Support Group for Pet Loss. Although we are located in Central Texas, the group has been meeting virtually (via Zoom) - allowing anyone to attend that would like the support.

We meet on the Second Sunday of the month, so our next meeting is on Sunday, January 10th at 6 pm (Central) - if you come across anyone that can use this sort of outlet, please send them our way.

It's totally free, open to the public, and we meet virtually via Zoom (and when it's safe to do so we will offer an in-person option).

Sometimes I feel like I'm preaching to the choir - but Tellington TTouch World has so much to offer our companion animals. And the fact that Austin hosts some of the most amazing Senior instructors is such an opportunity. Lucie Leclerc was last in Texas before I made my move to Australia - and now she's coming back. I'm honored to be able to be an assistant at this training. Lucie was the instructor that bridged my Right Vs. Left Brain issue - allowing me to trust my instincts! The Training is at the Austin Animal Center this go round - I urge you, if you have any curiousity about TTouch, to attend!!

What are you waiting for?? Robyn Hood - one of the most amazing TTouch Instructors on the Planet (and Linda Tellington-Jones' sister, BTW) is coming to Austin Texas for both a Companion Animal TTouch Training June 3-8, as well as a Horse Training!! I've been lucky enough to have trained with Robyn in Australia - but she has never been to Austin to train. Don't miss out on this opportunity to learn from the source!! She is insightful, funny, practical and brilliant. One of my personal goddesses!! If you have not done a TTouch training, you get the discounted first time cost - if you are interested and live anywhere within range i HIGHLY suggest that you sign up to join and learn from Robyn Hood!!
