Our household, my business, the whole WORLD, would not be what it is without my puppy, Future. Happy National Puppy Day!

Dug has so much tongue he can't even handle it.

It's nice to see Dug more consistently relaxed. Even though he is still wary of people, he has demonstrated so much more confidence in the past week!

Ernie's drawing was transferred to canvas and given to his mom as a birthday present. HOW CUTE IS HE?

Lincoln and Harper go home today! Lincoln is getting some last-minute practice on his "place" command, and Harper just likes to hang out with her bro.

"Place" is one of my FAVORITE commands. Lincoln can sit, stand, or lie down on his 'place,' as long as he keeps two paws on it. His place can be a raised cot, a comfy bed, or even just a blanket like you see here. He can even chew a bone or take a nap on his place.

A good Place command is a great substitute for a crate when you need your dog out of the way, but still want them around. Some people use Place at dinner time, or when guests come over.

"As much as humans enjoy the chance to socialize with other like-minded animal lovers while our dogs play, it’s far safer and more fun for your dog to skip the dog park and spend that time engaging intentionally with you and their surroundings by going on walks, taking a training or general obedience class or even trying a new sport together. "

While I'm not a fan of black-and-white generalizations, this article explains many of the reasons that I encourage people to find alternatives to the local dog park. What do you think? How do you exercise and socialize your dogs?

Dog parks may seem like great additions to the community, but they’re rife with problems — for you, and for your dog. Here’s what to know before you go.
