I am happy to answer BREED SPECIFIC behavioral questions. Please DO NOT ask general training or medical questions!
I currently have one beagle, a male age 2 1/2 , an 11 yr. old whippet mix and a 5 year old min. poodle. I had to let go of two of my beagles, one 2 years ago to cancer but at the ripe old age of 15 and another one just a few months ago from mutiple medical issues also at 15. I have done rescue work on and off for years as well as fund-raising for the local animal shelter. I worked for a dog magazine in the past (Southern California Dog Magazine). Being a psychotherapist has encouraged me to do in depth studying of animal behavior as well. I have worked with many people to help curb undesirable behaviors in their dogs (or them!) or to form good behaviors. My life is devoted to and surrounded by my dogs........
