There’s A Pill In My Cream Cheese!

While some dogs take their monthly heartworm preventatives easily, there are a few who have come through my board-and-train dog training program who have said, “Later lady! I’ll skip that one.” Well, kid, not on my watch. Heartworm preventative is life sustaining preventative. The last thing any dog owner should gamble with is the possibility of their dog contracting heartworm from an infected mosquito.

April Sprinkler Showers During Board-and-Train

Even though we don’t have much rain and it’s time for April showers, my board-and-train dogs find a way to shower if they are water dogs. When the sprinkler goes on, this little girl goes in.

When dogs come to Love Wags A Tail board-and-train, I love watching their innate drives blossom. And doggos like Lexi, who yank {Read More}

Introduction Curtsy aka Play Bow At Board-and-Train

Put a talkative French bulldog together with a Maltese and you’d have quite a conversation. In the meantime, I enjoy the conversations I get to have with them. Besides their talkative personalities, they are also creative. This is Zoe who was the first Maltese I trained. During one of our sit stay lessons, she {Read More}
