I adopted her two months ago and she is between 4-5 years old so I don't know her history. She is as sweet as can be and is doing wonderfully in her obedience class (where there are 5 other dogs), yet she loses all control when she is walking on a leash and sees or even smells other dogs. … Read more

I love watching "It's Me or the Dog" on Animal Planet. Victoria Stillwell is a dog trainer that goes to people's homes and works with them on training their dogs. The dogs are all driving the owner's crazy. It amazes me that in almost every single episode the dogs don't consider their animals to be their pack leaders, thus they don't listen to them. The thing that surprises me is that when the… read more

We just got back from dog obedience class. Simon and Bailey get to go, and Tucker has to stay home. Every week Simon throws up. Sometimes on the way there, sometimes on the way back, and sometimes both. Poor little guy. Bailey is such a good dog. She amazes me. read more

The HSCC is so lucky! We have a local dog trainer - Pam Hixson - that gives a free dog obedience classes to people who adopt our shelter dogs. It's a simple 1/2 day class about what to expect from your dog and what your dog expects from you - basic leash training, sit, stay, LEAVE IT! The class is a lot of fun and since I've sat through several I have to say there is more "people" training that … read more
