Happy New Year to you and your pets!

I hope you had a wonderful holiday season and have dug out from all the snow. Wasn’t that just crazy?!

My newsletter is now going to be quarterly so each one will be even more packed with information. I hope you will take some time to read through my Tips & Tricks and Nutrition information, and take a look at the new and exciting classes we have coming up this winter, especially ‘Reactive Rover’.

I am equally excited to announce a new partnership with Canyon Animal Hospital in Genesee, as well as continued collaboration with Laura Brody from Good Family Dog and Mile High Canine Club. I am also (hopefully) going to be expanding my office hours and presence at City Bark LoDo, so stop in and say hello if you’re driving by.

I am so excited to see what the future holds in 2007 and look forward to helping many more dogs and their owners. If you have a family member or friend who recently adopted or already has a dog with behavioral issues, or needs puppy class, please forward this newsletter to them. I’d love to help!

And even though he can’t read, I’d like to say HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my dog, Kenai, who will be a whopping ‘10’ years old on January 20th! I can’t believe time goes by so quickly. Kenai- you are my sunshine each and every day.

I am eternally grateful for all of your continued support and feedback- Thank you so much!

Ever wonder what to get Bailey to help him stay out of trouble while you’re at work?   Have you had a hard time keeping Murphy off the couch??  Does Jack the Cat need some physical activity because he is over weight?  Here is a list of my favorite products to help keep your pets happy and healthy.

Because dogs are hierarchical pack animals, somebody has to be the leader- and in most households, it’s the dog! Here is a short list of some helpful leadership behaviors to get yourself on track to being a calm and confident pack leader.

Every day, millions of dog owners take their dogs for walks. Those same dog owners are inadvertently rewarding their dogs for ‘Leash Frenzy’. Are you one of them? Teaching ‘Leash Courtesy’ is much safer for you and can actually teach your dog self-control.
