Sequin settled into the routine of our home very easily – getting along with the dog and cat (although she doesn’t quite understand that cats don’t play the same way as puppies – LOL) . She’s a sweet girl who is also very confident and... Read more

Another great month with Aslan. He had a sleep over with Ace that went over quite well. Continues his laid back ways. He is a little more active that in months past but he still has to sit there and think things out before he will act. He went to a Blues Concert and... Read more

It wasn’t much of an exciting month, but it was filled with lots of the basics. The hooman noticed I was having some selective hearing issues so we stripped back some of my cues and worked on offering and shaping games. Once we built it back up, we tried adding... Read more
