At the end of your leash

12/06/2025

Last year I discovered the NFR’s stunning Cowboy Christmas and I haven’t stopped dreaming of it since. I had a goal of making it there this year — lol, I didn’t make it. All I’m gonna say is… if I win the lottery, there will be signs. And I’m not even a western girlie!

Leaving my iPad outside so Angel can watch the horses run barrels turned out to be a bad idea. I keep receiving text messages — of her Christmas list! 🤣 You know, for riding around the neighborhood. Can you just see us on trail rides?🤣😂

Miss Angel was all decked out in pink when her awesome farrier Rachel arrived this week. Including pink lip stain. 💋
You know your farrier is a keeper when both your horse and dog look forward to seeing her! Angels feet have never looked so adorable. Yes, I said her feet are adorable. 😂 I kid you not, there’s something about the way Rachel does her feet, her hooves look absolutely adorable!
Did you catch the fist bump at the end?

When your 6 month old board and train just needs a cuddle because it’s already been a rough life.
My little Buddy has a story. He also has a hero, his dad, who is truly going above and beyond to help him.
During his first week of training, my intuition, my Spidey senses, we’re picking up that something wasn’t quite right. He just simply wasn’t learning in the way that most puppies learn, and I’ve trained a lot of puppies. As each day passed, I noticed he struggled to sit, always wanted to lay down, his coordination was very off, he struggled to retain what he was taught. He’s ravenous when it comes to food, excessive amount of shedding, moaned and fussed, whined far more than he should. Not typical puppy, not typical teething, not typical at all.
Through applied kinesiology and communication I believed it was hips and elbows. So off to the vet for rads. Twice, on different days vets refused to do rads. Until his dad demanded them. Vet said he saw nothing wrong, didn’t believe the puppy was in pain and didn’t see any reason to do x-rays.
Would you know? Elbow and hip dysplasia, enough for him to need his elbows done this week and his hips will need to be done in January.
Please send this sweetie some love, he’s with Dr. Diane Craig right now.

🍂🍄‍🟫Hello Fall! 🍁🌾
Looking forward to all the magic spooky season brings! ….and being able to ride at better times than half-past the fires of hell.
We won’t be trying out for the Olympic Equestrian Team, jumping cross-country, or competing against anytime soon, but Angel has been my personal trainer and physical therapists for sure.
The past month she has asked that I only ride ba****ck, so that is what we have been doing, even if it’s only 15min.

Meet my friend, Kirby.
Kirby had a thought to bite Rey.
That’s Rey in Kirby’s mouth.
Had it not been Rey, chances are there would be no more Kirby.
Having a balanced dog you can trust to help heal other dogs is invaluable.
Kirby learning his behavior doesn’t work, priceless.
Super Trainer 🦸🏻‍♀️ Tip: Priceless tips to a balanced dog:
1. It just may be the best thing ever to hire a trainer to temperament test and help you choose your pup.
2. It is the very best idea ever to begin training your pup at 8wks with a qualified trainer.
3. Early socialization beginning at 8wks, and continuing through life is one of the most important aspects of pet guardianship.
4. Crate training is necessary and kind.

Personally, I've never tried brussel sprouts.
However, I can tell you, last year my neighbor had a pallet full and gave me a few cases. I put them out for the dogs and Angel, my horse - they all loved munching on them! lol 🤦🏻‍♀️

Let's explore the safety and nutritional aspects of feeding Brussels sprouts to dogs!

Guess who turned 8yo today?!
🎂Happy Birthday, Rey! 🎉
We are both bummed that we couldn’t make it to Disneyland today, but that’s ok; tonight was birthday dinner out, and tomorrow she gets to choose a new toy when we get hay at Kahoots.
The Force is definitely strong with this gal! She’s doing pretty darn awesome, fully recovered from pneumonia. Thank you so much for your support. 🙏🏼❤️

[Part 7] This might be my favorite Han Solo story of all time. The APDT Conference 9/2024 was our last event. We were showered with compliments; of course Rey was gushed over, but if you don’t mind, I’m going to make this about Han Solo for the obvious reason.
There was one trainer that really stood out, she only had eyes for Han. From day one, she walked by us and her face lit up, she mouthed to me, “I love your dog!” Each time she saw us…er, him, her eyes lit up. We met her at her booth and while a friend was asking for a photo op, she asked for one with Han. We were honored and Han was all about it!
At the end of the event, this lovely trainer and her team saw us heading out and asked for more photos so we stopped and chatted a bit. When I say she was lovely, I truly mean she was lovely and kind as well as very observant. At one point, she was loving on Rey, I was standing on Han’s leash, he was standing next to me watching two pups engaged in play with food; she was amazed at how well Han was behaving while watching these pups, especially as an intact male, he was non-reactive to the whole scene. I explained to her that he grew up in my socials from 8wks and was incredibly well socialized around all dogs, off-leash in-heat females and other intact males.
I shifted my feet, almost lost my balance and Han quickly (while he was watching the pups play) moved in closer to me while wrapping his body around me to provide stability and catch me if I fell. The look on this trainers face was priceless! She was blown away that not only was he not reactive, but he was also keeping his eye on me and feeling for what I needed, and performing his job under heavy distraction. She looked at her team and was like, “did you see that?!”
Han looked up at me to make sure I was good. The smile on this trainers face said it all, “I’ve never seen a dog look at someone with so much love before.” She was beyond impressed with both Han and Rey, but quite seriously with Han’s temperament, disposition, his ability to task on point and so much more.
Truly, I cannot even begin to tell you what an honor it was to attend this conference, how great everyone was, and how many compliments we got from everyone we spoke with. Did you figure out who this trainer is that was so impressed and enamored by Han? 😉
Super Trainer 🦸🏻‍♀️ Talk: Now, I just have one dream to bring to fruition in 2025, hopefully in time for my 51st June birthday. I collected Han over multiple years; passed all OFA’s with flying colors, Hips are Excellent. JLPP & Long Coat Clear, he was only one win away from Champion. I’m looking for a suitable female to whelp here where I can give her the VIP treatment and raise pups the way a trainer raises pups - you’ll have very well trained pups on all levels by 8wks. I’ve already got several people waiting for Hannie-pups. 🙏 Would you please help make this dream a reality and spread the word? I would be so grateful.

It’s been 6 months since I lost my Hannie-bear and I feel just as gutted today as I did then. This grief is giving my heart no rest. This is the nature of love though, isn’t it?
The amount of hurt we feel is equal to the love we feel. Lately, it feels like I can’t even breathe and the tears have no end. Our time was far too short, we had so many adventures planned, so many more dreams to come true.
The sky was the limit for this guy, he could do anything he put his mind too. He was one of the most versatile dogs I’ve ever owned, from obedience to service dog and everything in between. If he didn’t excel in it, it’s only because we didn’t have enough time to get to it yet. Drive, excellent temperament and disposition, highly intelligent, passed all OFA’s with excellent hips. While all dogs have some faults, he was pretty amazing in every way a dog needs to be amazing.
Super Trainer 🦸🏻‍♀️ Talk: There is only one thing I dream of in 2025. Just one. Would you like to help me bring this dream into reality? I have Han’s semen frozen and I’m looking for a suitable female to get the VIP treatment while staying with me, round the clock care and love, while I whelp, raise and offer training for every pup, plus quite a few more cool bonus options. The timing is perfect - I could have a new pup in my heart and home for my birthday in June. 🙏❤️ Will you please share and spread the word for me?
