Dog's Best Friend's Training Tip of the Day

Dog's Best Friend's Training Tip of the Day:

Does your dog bark at the doorbell, loud noises outside, babies crying? If so, desensitize them to those sounds by playing a Noise CD, that will get them used to those pesky sounds. Remember, it's not enough to just play the CD, you must treat your dog when the sound plays, giving them a positive association with that sound. Just make sure you don't treat them when they bark, we don't want to confuse them and teach them the bark is what we're looking for. Treat them when they're being quiet.

Purchase the Noise CD's at Living with Dogs.

Have fun! Training should be enjoyable for both the dog and the human.

A Sad Day! Jake Crosses the Rainbow Bridge!

Introducing Ben and Roxy - Dog's Best Friend's Dogs of the Month - May and June

Ben and Roxy are two of our dearest Friends.
They are quite a duo with personalities that couldn't
be more different from one another.

Roxy, ever the sweet gal, loves to lounge and cuddle in her Mom's
nice, warm bed. Her lovely white fur, blending in with the white down
comforter, camouflaging her from the rest of the world.
When we arrive to visit, she gracefully greets us,
waiting for soft pets and kisses.
Her tenderness melts our hearts.

Playful Ben, wiggles his way down the stairs, happy to
share his plush toy with us as we leash him up for his
outdoor adventure. The whole world is magnificent to Ben.
He relishes every smell he can take in and lets the world know,
"Ben was here."

These two rascals are such great gifts to us. We've enjoyed the years
that we've spent with them and look forward to many, many more.

Congratulations, Ben and Roxy,
you're our Dogs of the Month for May and June.

We love you, Friends!
