It may have been a dreary Sunday morning, but it was still a good day for brunch and connections!

First, Sheba and I enjoyed a walk and brunch at Forsyth Park, in the hopes of stretching our legs and getting an outing in before the rain hit. Mission accomplished - complete with some yummy Mushies on Toast for me 😋

Then, when walking through one of Savannah's beautiful squares, a branch fell out of nowhere and made Sheba and I jump! We weren't the only ones - nearby was someone walking an adorable Shih Tzu and they had the same response. We started chatting and it turns out they were Beth from Joslin Pet Services and one of her sweet clients, Georgie 🐶

What a good connection to make, since clients are always asking me for dog walking recommendations. Beth offers daily dog walks or vacation-sitting in the Savannah/Pooler area and the islands, sitting with anxious dogs while their owners go out, and even assists with nail trims! So if you're ever in need of these services, Beth is happy to help 🙂

LOOK. AT. THIS. FACE!!! Meet Birdy.

This little French Bulldog is living proof that good things come in high-energy packages. While, like many Frenchies, she is currently convinced that the best way to say "hello" is by launching her entire body into orbit and giving your fingers a gentle nibble, she is officially in her "Learning to Chill" era.

Birdy is working on her impulse control. She’s learning to swap her signature "puppy parkour" for calm behavior. It turns out that sitting still gets you even MORE attention, treats and scratches. Who knew?! Progress looks good on her, doesn't it?

So calm and controlled one minute, and then the food bowls come out and the drama begins. 🎭

These two handsome, brilliant brothers operate as siblings often do:
1. Mostly they are best buddies who wrestle, play and love each other's company
2. Then a little sibling rivalry regarding resources takes over - in this case, Westley going into hyper-drive over dinnertime

While Buffett usually keeps his cool, Westley gets a little too worked up about mealtime and can pour it out on Buffett (even though he's the older brother). Today, we worked on bringing down the hype and practicing some calm before feeding time. Less chaos, more zen, same amount of cuteness. 🧘‍♂️🦴

Dog genetics can be fascinating. Exhibit A... Churro!

Take a close look at this face. If you guessed Churro was part German Shepherd or Husky, you might only be getting a fraction of the story! Dog genetics are wild, and they don't always work the way we think.

Here are two mind-blowing facts about dog DNA that explain why our furry friends look and act the way they do:

1️⃣ One litter can have multiple fathers! Yes, really. It’s a natural phenomenon called superfecundation. Because female dogs release multiple eggs over their fertile period, if she mates with more than one male, different fathers can sire different puppies in the exact same litter. This is why littermates can look like entirely different breeds!

2️⃣ The "Low Percentage, High Personality" effect. A dog can inherit a tiny percentage of a specific breed (say, just 10% Chihuahua or German Shepherd) but look exactly like one or have its exact temperament. Why? Because a very small handful of genes control physical traits like ear shape, coat type, and size—and if those specific genes are dominant, they overpower everything else!

Swipe to see Churro’s official results! Were you surprised? Let us know what breed traits you see in him below! 👇

Big or small, it's always a lovely evening at the park when you make a friend and take a moment to enjoy the scenery 💕🐾

A breakfast date this past weekend with my best little girl at one of our favorites, Café M 💛

They have the tastiest matcha, macarons and gluten-free breakfast sandwiches around, and Sheba loves people-watching (and pigeon-watching too!) as we relax on their patio 😎🐶

In honor of National Dog Day this week, tell me... what do you and your dog love to do together? Show me your pics below of your best furry friend!

Unless you have one yourself, it's not every day that you see a Kerry Blue or Airedale Terrier - and yesterday I got to work with both ❤️ So I figured we'd have a little info sesh about these two bearded breeds...

Though they look like cousins, these two have unique personalities and traits:

👑 The Airedale Terrier: "The King of Terriers"
Size: The largest terrier.
Coat: Classic black and tan.
Vibe: Playful, goofy, and confident.
Superpower: Fierce family protector.
Quirk: Loves to dig and play in water!

💙 The Kerry Blue Terrier: "The Irish Gem"
Size: Medium and compact.
Coat: Stunning blue-gray waves.
Vibe: High-energy, alert, and intensely loyal.
Superpower: Stealing hearts.
Quirk: Hypoallergenic and rarely sheds!

🤝 What They Have in Common:
Both are super smart (and more than a little stubborn!).
Style: Signature bearded chin and always looking dapper.
Heart: Deeply devoted to their humans.

Tell me, have you been lucky enough to know either of these breeds??

I had the sweetest training moment today with Jossie the Golden Retriever — and her human brother, who insisted on practicing right alongside her on his own mat! It was adorable and honestly one of the best examples of how family‑friendly training can be.

We worked on “Go Place,” which simply means: go lay down on your spot until I release you. Once a dog understands this, it becomes incredibly practical in everyday life:

• A calm place to relax while the toddler plays (so dog can still be part of the action without being underfoot)

• A designated spot outside the kitchen during meals to prevent accidental begging (or food snatching from the toddler or guests!)

• A polite waiting place when answering the door, instead of jumping on friends and family

Jossie did beautifully — and her little brother was very proud to be her training partner. Moments like these make my whole day. 💛🐾

A dog's senses are a lot stronger than ours in many ways. But did you know that their vision is actually not as good as ours in some ways? Dogs have a harder time gauging things like depth perception, and while they are not completely colorblind, they do not see the range of color that we humans see 👀

Here's a good example of a dog's vision compared to ours...

Stuffed or real??? 🐶🥰....

REAL! This adorable floof is Marlow, a 14-week-old Goldendoodle and my newest client. Couldn't you just squeeze him?! He is going to learn all of his obedience commands, house manners, social manners and life skills so he can become the bestest boy for his new family 💗

Even though I specialize in deep seated and complex issues like anxiety and reactivity, I absolutely LOVE working with puppies and their people, so we can get everyone off to a happy and harmonious life together from the start. Plus, puppy kisses make even the worst days 100 times better 💕🐾
