What the hell happened to my post?! I posted here earlier today that I will be taking this page down at the end of the year. My business has seriously suffered partly because of the economy and partly because of Google changing platforms from Google, my business to Google maps, and all the reviews I had were not moved over. I've kind of disappeared into the Zeitgeist. My clients can still keep in touch with me via text or phone. I will leave my my wagglytails email up for a while. This is not an easy decision for me to make. For everyone that has trained with me or supported me in in my business, I sincerely thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Good Morning Everyone. I'm sad to say that I will be deleting my business page at the end of this year. Business has been slowly declining for the last 2 years, this year being the worst. The contributing factors are the economy and the fact that Google changed platforms from Google My Business to Google Maps. I am facility free and people are still requesting directions. Also, there are some big box stores and training centers that pay for ads, and I've been bumped way down on the list. None of my reviews were transferred over so it looks like I only have a couple after being in business close to 11 years now. So, it's a "calamity stew" of circumstances that have hit me in the wallet and it isn't feasible for me to continue. To my former clients, this doesn't mean that I'm taking my support away. You can always reach me via email (not taking down my business email yet), text or phone in an emergency. It's been an amazing decade of training so many sweet puppies and their humans. Friendships with some of the humans have blossomed, for which I am grateful. I wish you all a happy holiday season and a healthy, prosperous 2026.

There's a lot of buzz going on in the dog training industry regarding harsh training methods, people saying that they are positive reinforcement trainers when they are not, therefore misrepresenting themselves. I want to make something perfectly clear: I do not cause pain when I'm training a dog I do not cause any discomfort whatsoever I do not force dogs to do anything they're not comfortable doing I don't use shock or e-collars I do not use prong collars choke, or e-collars I do not use anti-bark collars or any ultrasonic devices I do not encourage the use of electronic fencing I do not hit or knee a dog, I don't yell and I don't use harsh leash corrections I don't hang the dog by their leash I train using positive reinforcement only and with kindness and love.

If you hire a trainer who tells you they are positive reinforcement and then they use any of the above items or methods, fire them immediately. You can find positive reinforcement trainers on the Pet professional Guilds' website.

I'm no longer offering free evaluations. I've been ghosted enough. I spend my time evaluating your dog and then take the time to send a follow up email outlining my findings and offering suggestions. Zero response, which I find to be rude and disrespectful. If someone doesn't want to move forward with training, let me know. Don't just ignore my emails.

My break from FB was much needed. I will be checking my business page and you can always reach out via FB Messenger. I may occasionally check my personal page and I'll still be posting on Instagram. I recently opened a TikTok acct and hope to learn how to use it to my advantage.

Good afternoon. I will be off social media for the next two weeks. For my current clients, if you're having an issue, you have my phone number and feel free to text me. If anyone is interested in my dog training services, feel free to email me and I will get back to you as soon as I can.
Thanks in advance for your patience and understanding.

I was doing some research online and I found that there are some people who are still promoting The idea dogs are pack animals. While our domestic dogs evolved from wolves, they don't travel in packs. We humans fulfill the needs of our dogs. We give them food, shelter, medical Care, everything they need to survive and in return they give us unconditional love. It is also a myth that dogs pull on leash because they want to get ahead of their human to establish themselves as leader of the pack. Dogs do not try to dominate their human family. They are part of The family. I hope people don't buy into this nonsense that domestic dogs are dominating us and that we are their pack. Nothing could be further than the truth.

‼️URGENT!!! SAVE SWEET SUGAR’s LIFE- TIMESTAMPED- TUESDAY, 1/14/25- TRENTON ANIMAL SHELTER‼️‼️

🔥💥❣️PLEASE SEE NEW 💜VIDEO OF SUGAR💜 at the bottom, tail-wagging, body dancing!! DOES This look like a dog that should be killed in less than a week?

The shelter is SADLY timestamping great dogs again due to overcrowding. Sugar is 1 of 5 dogs that will be killed! She does not have behavioral problems- she even allows her paws and teeth to be checked. *** She is very FRIENDLY, and wags her tail and dances at the shelter, when staff approach her kennel. THIS IS the dog they are killing!! 😭💔 She’s been at the shelter since July and they think that is too long!

She IS good with children, and shared a home with 4 kids when she was fostered. Sugar is dog selective, so a meet and greet with another dog is required. Please foster, adopt OR SHARE to save Sugar’s life!

Please call 609-989-3254 AND fill out this form. https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdt6qVEW0KVCwYD2BbalvTN4DSSpaGd0KAYrm6dzaK-2CAS0A/viewform. If the shelter does not respond to you, please let me know.

Good morning. My apologies for being absent from my business page. I hope you're all doing well and I wish you a happy, healthy, prosperous 2025.

It's been a minute since I've posted on my business page. I had a nasty case of COVID which lasted 2 weeks and then it took me 2 weeks to recover. I just want to wish you all a very happy Thanksgiving.
Also want to share Willow who has very little vision left. Been training her to respond to a whistle and she did really great. Today was the first day that we worked outside. She's also been reactive to vehicles passing by, dogs, barking and other outside distractions. She's doing really great in that department too. We gave her the cue to leave it and she does 90% of the time. I'm very proud of this little girl.
