Living with Labrador Retrievers, the joys and tribulations of living, loving and training dogs
This blog is a tribute to Belle, and all the dogs who have come before and after. They are my friends, my companions, my teachers and my students. They bring me both joy and heartache, laughter and tears. There is nothing as sweet as the smell of puppy breathe, and nothing as sad as the final goodbye.

Training with treats
Training tip:
It is important to eventually eliminate the treat as a visible lure. Do, however, continue to use them on an intermittent schedule. Your dog works harder not knowing when he will be treated and you don't develop a dependency on treats as a training tool.
Warrior
You were a
warrior in your past life! You're strong, determined, dedicated, and willing to
sacrifice for what you believe in. Your past life was very difficult and full
of struggle, but you were incredibly courageous and achieved a great deal.
There's a fire within you that will take you far in life. You may have had some
rough patches already in this life, but rely on your inner warrior because
nothing can stop
