Our recommendations for everything “dog”.
Training and exercise is only ONE aspect of owning a dog. Over the years we’ve accumulated a network of professionals and businesses that share a similar perspective on what it takes to create a well-balanced dog. Whether it’s dog walking or water therapy, gear or grooming, these resources know how to help the four-legged (and sometimes two-legged!) members of your household.
Recommended Reading
These books are what we consider to be a great introduction to understanding your dog as a canine, the basics of dog behavior and being a great leader. They are a staple on our bookshelf and we hope they will be in your home, too.
