About Dogs and Everything Else Under the Sun, even Above It!

Great Things Often Tiny but Mighty

 Just by remembering, dreaming, loving well, I awoke one beautiful morning to my dream-come-true wife rubbing noses with me and giggling while showing me a tiny old dime. An old 1916D mercury dime that was not old at all comes to find out. Finally realizing that a not-so-old dime of the same era, something which I […]

General Guy and Trooper

A delightful item from Yahoo News about Zoey, the Chihuahua who saved a 1-yr old baby from a rattlesnake, takes me back to an intriguing pair of DOG-MASTER dogs.
Dear readers, come with me, back in time to just a few years ago when I gained an interesting family of friends. They started as clients, especially GeeGee, who […]

Solving Problems the Holistic and Natural Way

Konrad Lorenz loved animals even mankind. He wrote about dogs, their temperaments and relationships with man. A particular insight of his is worth its own in “Pearls of Thought: For Both Man and Dog.” It’s amazing how calming and unifying just “walking a strange way together” can be or do.

I certainly agree. I’ve successfully advised […]

The “MAGIC” of DOG-MASTER LEARNING SYSTEM

I do like to hear from our Dog Masters. This from Chris:
“We’ve got a door dasher, now actually had. We got our DOG MASTER kit and we’re absolutely amazed. ‘Had’ is right!
We saw it on your website and there was our dog at the door, but not out, and then gone! Well, we ordered and […]

Another tortoise story: get well, Bob!

Ok, I’m upset. I think I’m really upset! A few days ago I discussed a very pleasurable thing, Tony Fabrizio and his relationship with his pet tortoise Newman. But now I hear about a senseless attack on another tortoise.
As I psychologist I can trace virtually all problems, whether with pets, children, or adults, to the great detriment of […]

What’s wrong with our pet food?

Before I begin, thank you Marmaduke for this cartoon. 
Ok now…In my website I talk about the pet food recall. It’s still a hot topic and I’ll say off the bat the whole thing smells of a sordid conspiracy. Little wonder it has continued to unravel in the news.
I try to make my blogs short and I don’t often […]

The Bark of the Dog

Two kinds: yours and the neighbor’s. Also two kinds of barking dogs: the dog that knows and the dog that doesn’t know.
The dog that knows, knows that his people are competent and can take care of him/her and themselves. So this dog only has to let his/her owners know with just one or two barks. […]

Newman the Tortoise

Not too long ago I got this excited phone call (note: not email) that maybe there was hope for us who sadly seem to lose out to old age with our beloved pets. Dogs only make it around 12 years. My therapy dog Monte was struck down with diabetes at age 16, still seemingly well […]
