A Huge Win

Hello, hello! Today, I wanted to talk about a huge win: Charlie used to have some really bad dog excitability/reactivity issues and would completely refuse to listen when a dog was nearby; he would just bark and wiggle around in excitement while trying to pull over to the dog. After he was sent to ...

A Rad Dude

Charlie got his Rex Specs in the mail today and we started with some brief training sessions! So far, Charlie has been excited to put them on and will even push his nose into the goggles to help put them on. They are a little uncomfortable for him so far it seems (he likes to paw at his face and r...

Service dogs are not pets

The persistent notion that service dogs are specially-trained pets is frustrating and at times dangerous.

Staying Safe with Noonlight

Yesterday, I came across an app called “Noonlight.” I thought this would be a great app to share here to help promote safety within the community. This is how it generally works: Basically, when you’re feeling unsafe, you press and hold the button until you feel safe/have gotten to a ...

National Black Dog Day

I ALMOST MISSED NATIONAL BLACK DOG DAY :scream: Enjoy the Charlie pup being a goof. :’) I’ve been undergoing a procedure on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, so things have been pretty boring here. Charlie misses working and is definitely beginning to regress, so I’m going to have to rework some of his t...

Happy Second Birthday Charlie!

Today (September 24th, 2020) was Charlie’s second birthday! He got a few new toys, some new treats, a lot of playtime, and some cuddle time. Basically, Charlie got completely spoiled today and had a blast. We went to a big open field and played Charlie’s favourite version of fetch, Charlie got t...

Seeing our Trainer

We saw our trainer again and Charlie embarrassed me in a way I’d never have thought he could. Yesterday, we had an amazing time with our trainer. As usual, when he left, I felt so much better than before he came. He commended me on my progress with Charlie and actually said he was really impre...

Photography

I’ve been working on my photography and editing skills recently and it’s been a load of fun. I definitely feel like there’s a lot of room for improvement, but hey, I’m not a professional. I’m just doing it for fun! Enjoy some edited photos of the dingus!

Mr. Charlie

College has started back up, and Charlie has been doing very well, all things considered! We did a decent amount of training before the start of the semester and it really paid off! We only have one in-person class, and it’s a 3 hour lab (every other Tuesday with the class split in half to reduce t...

Pupdate!

This summer has been quite a lot, but despite everything, Charlie has been quite the champ! Charlie went without any public access training for a while (things happened, and it’s a bit hard to go out as often with COVID-19), but when we got back into it more, he picked up right around where we lef...
