I am out of the office this week! That means I will not be answering emails, texts or calls until I return. Private sessions and Beyond the Basics class will resume next week. If Christie is your instructor or you’re in my Beginner Basics on Wednesday, classes will continue as usual.

Thank you for your patience and I’ll see you and all your pups when I get back ✨

From Poppy’s mom:

“Poppy graduated from her Beginner Basics class today.

I wanted to take the time to say how proud I am of her. She struggles with anxiety when in strange places. Startled at every noise. Nervous around other dogs and people.

She is a rockstar in her obedience skills at home. Except barking. We are still working on that one. 🤭 But when out and about, she just couldn’t focus because of how scared she was.

On the first day of class, I was sure we were going to have to transfer out, but the trainers have been amazing and knew how to help her with baby steps to get used to everyone.

So from the first class, where I had to give her a nervous system massage though most of the class, to today where she could play musical chairs (still a little skittish at sounds, but able to focus) I am just completely amazed and so proud of her.

So here’s a very public “Yes! Good girl, Poppy Dop!”

And a HUGE thank you to her trainers here that helped her get this far!”

Lowe's Home Improvement with Mookey today 💫

’m so proud of all the progress we’ve made over the past four sessions! Each week, Mookey gains more clarity and confidence as he learns to navigate his new home life and beyond 🏡

I truly believe some dogs come into our lives for a reason — to teach us, guide us, and remind us of patience and love. Mookey has been such a beautiful blessing to his family, and it’s been a joy watching their bond grow. ❤️

We had such a blast at Pensacola Humane Society’s Barktoberfest this weekend 🧡🖤🐾

Huge shout out to all my amazing clients who stopped by to say hello 🤗 some of these dogs went from needed 100 feet between them and other dogs to wandering around Barktoberfest with no issues! I’m always so proud of all the amazing people and dogs I get to work with!

Fact or Fiction: Calling Poison Control for your pet is free

Fiction!
While human poison control hotlines are free, most pet poison control hotlines charge a consultation fee (usually $75–$85). This fee covers expert veterinary toxicologists who can quickly assess your pet’s situation and provide a treatment plan to your vet.

With Halloween and other festive holidays approaching, be extra cautious to keep toxic foods and treats out of reach—like chocolate, grapes, sugar-free candies (xylitol), and alcohol.

💡 Keep these numbers saved just in case:

ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center: (888) 426-4435

Pet Poison Helpline: (855) 764-7661

Your pet’s safety is worth the call!
