Words of Wisdom & Inspiring Quotes

Reinforce the positive
Carry treats & often give;
Chokes & prongs are both passe,
E-collars - so yesterday.

Progressive training 
Loving hands,
Give them cues
And not commands.

Get your dog 
In love with you,
By supporting 
What he'll do.

Behavior change
Is often quicker
With a marker
Or a clicker.

My dogs learn
Because it's fun:
There's no fear
Of how it's done.

Set your dog up
For success;
Keep his life
As free from stress.

Corrections aren't
How it's done,
If your cues 
Are taught with fun.

Every dog should
Have his day
With treats and love
(If I had my way).

“Such short little lives our pets have to spend with us, and they spend most of it waiting for us to come home each day. 
It is amazing how much love and laughter they bring into our lives and even how much closer we become with each other because of them.” 
― John Grogan, Marley and Me: Life and Love With the World's Worst Dog


“Until one has loved an animal, a part of one's soul remains unawakened.”
