Why is it so hard for us to set boundaries with our dogs?
Culture?
Lack of Information?
Personal Insecurity?
Today’s show I talk about dogs, boundaries, and much more!
Kim Sill for President! Learn about Kim’s amazing success working with pet store owners to get them to work with local shelters rather than sell dogs from puppy mills. She’s a very inspiring woman!
This week: I discuss the difference between mental and physical energy and how that explains why my barista’s chihuahua isn’t tired after a three mile run.
Also, I give my input about Cesar’s Way Magazine and share my opinion about some of his short written answers to people’s mailed-in questions.
DOG TRIVIA! I got a question wrong in dog trivia last week at an event: and it was breed identification! Chinese Crested or Mexican Hairless (Xolo)? So from the AKC website I explain the difference.
“Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on ME!”

A recent story on The Today Show with Matt Lauer has caused a strong response from professionals in the dog industry, especially the service dog industry.
The story of a three year old who has a service dog who carries her oxygen tanks around everywhere with her, has raised some concern. Dog professionals notice the dog’s body language of being stressed and uncomfortable, as well as the blatant poor handling skills of the three year old.
Here’s a link to the story and video. See for yourself!
