If your cat slowly blinks at you from across the room, that’s a compliment. Cats don’t hand out trust to just anyone, so if you’re getting a few of these, you’re doing something right.

Comment below which one your cat does the most! And yes, I train cats too.

Fall flowers are pretty, but a few that show up on walking trails or outside your home can be poisonous to them, so make sure you swipe through to see what they look like.

Before your dog gets zipped into a hot dog costume for Halloween, check how they actually feel about it.

A lot of dogs put up with costumes without enjoying them at all, and the signs are easy to miss when you're busy trying to get the perfect picture. If your dog freezes or won't walk once it's on, they're uncomfortable.

Do a few short test runs this week with treats so the costume isn't a surprise on Halloween night. Some dogs get used to it after a couple of tries. If yours still looks miserable, skip it.

A bandana still counts as dressing up!

Save this for when the costume comes out, and send it to the friend who already bought their dog three outfits.

If you've ever looked at your own dog after a bad moment and felt your stomach sink, I get it.

Tucker looked like a lost cause on paper. Bite history, escapes, a court involved. He is not a lost cause, and he never was. He is a smart dog who needed the right outlet, and someone to give him a real plan and enough time to make it work.

Not every dog is Tucker, and I'm not here to sell you a miracle.

What I can tell you is how many dogs people write off because they never stop to ask what's actually going on underneath the behavior. 

If you're scared, or stuck, or wondering if you're in over your head, come talk to me before you call it hopeless.

Once your cat builds a positive association with the clippers, nail trims become much easier.

Use the 6 steps in this video to help your cat actually enjoy their nail trims!

1. Get them used to you touching their paws and pair it with a high-value treat. (Do this a few times a day.)

2. Gently press their paw pads to expose the nails, then give them a treat. (Do this a few times a day.)

3. Let them investigate the clippers and reward them for sniffing or checking them out.

4. Bring the clippers up to their paws, give them a treat, then stop. (Do this several times a day.)

5. Try clipping one nail and STOP. Reward them when they cooperate.

6. Work up to clipping a few at a time. NEVER clip them all at once until they're completely comfortable.

If your cat has a bad reaction at any point, go back to the last step they were comfortable with and don't rush moving forward. Always take it slow.

Save this for the next nail trim!

Every dog owner has stood in their kitchen saying "no, no, NO" while their dog does the exact thing they're being told not to do. It's one of the most frustrating parts of living with a dog, and it feels like they're doing it on purpose.

They're not. Your dog just doesn't have the information yet. "No" tells them to stop for a second. It never tells them what you'd rather they do, so the second your back is turned, they're right back at it.

The dogs who seem to "get it" aren't smarter or better behaved. Someone took the time to show them what they're supposed to do instead, and properly rewarded them for doing it. Any dog can learn this. 

If there's a behavior you've been trying to "no" your way out of for months, let's talk. That's what a discovery call is for.

A cat's tail tells you exactly how they feel! Save this one for later, and send it to the cat person who swears theirs is impossible to read.

Yes, you can train cats to walk on a leash too!

This is Vinny & Haku's favorite time of the day (Haku even demands to go outside most of the time)
