Just because it’s cold outside doesn’t mean you still can’t learn tricks! Sasha sitting pretty more beautifully than ever 😍💕

Maintaining a comfortable temperature while staying indoors is key for comfort, but it's also important to make sure your puppo is just as comfortable! I had a client the other day that didn't eat his food and one of the reasons I suspected was that

We’re already onto our second week of December *gasp!* With the wintery days ahead of us, be sure to keep your puppos warm. Look at Jax majestically lounging on his fuzzy rug 😌

Just having a chat with Tank about this toy I’ve created 🦴Stuffed with the smell of fresh cut grass, it reminds dogs of the being outdoors. It works great as toy for when you want them to focus and play as a reward, it also works as a tug toy

Nothing quite like finding a good stick to naw on, am I right? 🥰 While sticks are good, maybe shoes and random floating objects on the streets are not so good. If your doggo is having any kind of impulse control issues or behavioral problems, shoot
