Join us for this interview with Serena Crawford of Serena Crawford Therapies, located in West Kirby, England, as we talk and share the importance of acknowledging the pain and suffering of losing a beloved animal. The loss of a pet is often one of the most significant emotional pains, as pets are known to love unconditionally and fully. Serena helps guide people through grief with her deep and broad education and experience. I dare say Serena is living her life's purpose. Listen as Serena shares about her unique childhood and the intuitive learning that shaped who she is - a powerful healer. It's a beautiful conversation with Serena, and you can experience her love and care in this podcast. Love and care may be precisely what your heart desires now, or you may share with someone who would benefit at this very time. It's no small feat to live with a heart wide open and learn there is help when your heart may be broken and need special care. We also touch on healing therapy for animals as they grieve when they lose someone they love dearly. You can visit Serena's website for more information and to schedule your private session: https://serenacrawfordtherapies.co.uk/.

You can go from boredom to delight with your dog during the home isolation period. I’m experiencing great joy with two 6 month old brother pups! OK, I wasn’t bored or sitting around with nothing to do before their arrival. I have plenty of work to do and YET…. it’s been a breath of fresh air to have these two strong individuals join the household to create zest and excitement at every single moment until they fall over into sleep when exhausted. Last night they slept for 14 hours. I’m telling you, we are having some serious fun while training. Use this time to get excited with your dog and find new ways to bond and learn new ways for your dog(s) to live an even more expansive life with you. Everyone wins! In today’s podcast I share how to give more than asked or needed and how everyone benefits. Make it safe for your dog to expand and try new things…. invite the action! Aren’t win-win scenarios wonderful? Share what happens for each of you and both of you. What did you do and how did your dog stretch in creatively offering new ideas? It’s a great discussion
Covid-19 is impacting canines and their families around the world. Here in the United States, it's pretty relaxed when you compare it to the conditions in Madrid, Spain. I hooked up with a dog trainer partner in Madrid and got the details of the STRICT, and COSTLY if not followed restrictions on individuals with dogs. The ways of life for dogs and dog owners in Spain is very different than here. What would you do differently if you lived in Spain? Comment here: UPDATE: We mentioned "PPP" dogs with additional requirements. Here is more on PPP dogs in Spain: Breeds and characteristics of a dog considered PPP Dogs that are considered PPP under Spanish law are diverse, and include: · American Pit Bull Terrier · Staffordshire Bull Terrier · American Staffordshire Terrier · Rottweiler · Argentine Dogo · Fila Brasileiro · Tosa Inu · Akita Inu · Doberman · Bullmastiff · Dogue de Bordeaux (French Mastiff) · Neapolitan mastiff · Presa Canario (Canary Mastiff) · Bull Terrier In addition to these breeds, a dog is considered PPP if it is a descendant of any of the abovementioned breeds, or if they display the following features: · Strong muscles and a powerful appearance. Robust, athletic, strong and tough. · A strong character and great strength · Short hair · Chest circumference between 60 and 80 centimeters, a height at the withers between 40 and 70 centimeters and a weight exceeding 20 kg. · A voluminous and robust head, a wide and large skull. · The jaws of possible PPP should be large and strong. · The neck should be muscular and wide. · A solid, wide, large and deep chest. · Strong and muscular limbs with relatively long legs.

We are being asked to stay at home and 6 feet away from others. BUT NOT FROM OUR DOGS! (That would truly be extra awful.) The way I see it, it's more time to spend with my best friend. I thought if would be nice to share fun games you can play together. Of course I have books of games and tricks, wink. So being the nice and fun person my dog thinks I am, I'm sharing. Today it's about tugging games. Here are rules and guidelines to keep it fun and safe for all. I know it may seem silly but most everyone can get a helpful piece of information to benefit you. I'll drop more games and activities on a regular basis so come back and find new ways to delight your team. I like requests and if you let me know, I'll make it a priority. And remember, dogs may get a low reading of the corona virus but they do not transmit the disease and you are safe with them. Keep them close, as they are wonderful companions as we go through a challenging time.
If you have the ability to give a bit more investment of money and time to give to your best friend canine, focus on their diet and you will be amazed at the quality of life improvements before your very eyes. Watch your dog come alive in ways you’ve not experienced before. The benefits far outweigh any reservations you may have. And your dog, your best friend, is the one who benefits the most, and it is significant!

Training a young pup uninterested in training can be a bit of a challenge even with an amazing canine team of training helpers. Add a mom with unique ways of being and we have today's talk.

Most people will choose to stay away from the general public to keep you safe from the Corona virus. Safety is important for you and your family including your pets. So far one case of human to canine transmission of Corona virus has occurred. Listen for more details. The next several days check in for ideas to entertain and keep you and your dog happy and healthy! When you don’t feel safe at the dog park or the city streets, it’s good to have ways to engage your dog to satisfy mind and body and live a happy, healthy, peaceful life.
We like nice things and experiences. We like to give that to our fur-kids as well and to share the experience while pampering them. We all get to enjoy the moments. Hanging out afterwards enjoying the lingering scents, soft fur and calm skin is an additional luxury benefit much appreciated. Today we look at dog spa products and enjoying the lap of leisure.
This is an exciting talk today. It's to encourage a team new to training and filled with very advanced subtleties in training for the ultimate in teamwork. If you only listen to one talk up until now, let this be the one. It’s my favorite. I love what I get to do. If you'd like to share (and I hope you do), click here.
Life changes such as moving, divorce, military off overseas, child to college, a death of a family pet may have a big impact on your dog. Knowing what to look for and how to help her through a life transition is a gift of love. Often you may be going through a transition as well. This podcast is an excellent reference to help you navigate the most positive transition for your dog. Even if you don't have a dog in your family this is helpful information for you to support loved ones going through transformation.

More and more I’m seeing how businesses and areas are catering to our beloved dogs. Examples include work, lodging, neighborhood communities and even cities.

Learn what you need and how to prepare to make a great impression with your dog. A little effort on the front end will benefit you greatly and ensure you both are at your best resulting in invitations to the highly desired dog offerings.

There are many, many ways to train a dog. Ask around and you will hear a spectrum of answers from the sane to crazy, kind and not so kind, controlling or no training at all that people call "absorbing" while living together. (This last one is the #1 reason dogs are surrendered.) Listen to this simple and incredible way to get your dog's attention, help them learn cause and effect and make good choices. Develop a wonderful loving relationship built on trust and care and choice. You will both grow and benefit from it. UPDATE: A few hours later we were able to easily and quietly do the first complete nail trim. Everyone relaxed and in agreement. YES!
Remember how I glowed about the dog park in Mount Pleasant? Well, Sullivan's Island Beach is just as fabulous! Actually it's way more! (Plus a few more beaches in the area are dog friendly.) Wonderful people, wonderful socialized dogs, fantastic beach! It's hard to leave. Do note there are restrictions and licensing so do adhere to the rules and stay out of the dog house and keep it fun fur everyone.
One week into the trial and experiencing positive results! For someone who's been encouraging the use for dogs, why am I surprised ? Because I'm doing the exact same treatment along side the canine. I observe positive change in the dog and now I'm observing positive change in me! We are 1/3 of the way through and not easing up at all. It's wonderful. Check it out.
I admit I'd gotten disillusioned with dog parks. I've been to so many that turned into bad hoods. We've experienced it - bully dogs, scared dogs, out of control dogs, dog poop all over, dirty water bowls, parents busy socializing and not paying attention to the dog experience. Then I was encouraged to note caring people speaking up in attempts to correct the dysfunction. Then there were the few who became very aggressive in their corrective actions and turned bad in their own way. I kept to the hiking trails many didn't use and we enjoyed out outings. I came to Mount Pleasant, SC to visit a dear friend and she said the best dog park is Middle St. Pearl, Gabe and I headed over.
My canine guest and I are taking the Rescue Remedy treatment for 13 days. This unique and natural healing treatment will address his recent behavior changes that do not serve him and for me, well I have my own behaviors I'd like treatment for. We have 13 days to take the treatments together 4x/day, 4 drops per dose. We've diluted the remedy so it's even stronger. There are absolutely no negative effects. Listen to how we can tell when to stop taking the remedy and follow along and we'll give updates- both human and canine.
Broken dreams. The ideal dog gone bad. Often people get discouraged with a dog situation, blame the dog, and give it away. The dog wasn’t the problem. The real culprit is lack of training, care and addressing concerns. Talking about signs, symptoms, & solutions.
As you pay more attention to the relationship between you and your dog, you will find your dog will too. We explore curiosity, subtlety, engagement and positive reinforcement. Be the change maker in your relationship. Your dog will be much more willing to follow your lead towards being a relaxed, happy, easy going and attentive, responsive canine.
I'm working with a growing puppy and he is going through important growth stages. I can push through with training or choose another way. Let's listen to what happens on this day with Rascal.
(You may want to turn the volume down on today's podcast.) THIS is how it's done and it is fast to train. Incredible, at the right time and the right place, to capture teaching quiet in a whisper and getting desired results. Clarifying point: the treat or toy (desired item) is in your hand when you draw your hand off to the side. Get first lesson success and then practice to develop consistency and gradually add distractions. This is how easy clear communication training can be. And you are maintaining your best friend relationship. Love it! Update: Drawing your hand off to the side is important. This action obtains your dog's total focus and gives space and time to draw out the quiet, no barking period that you will acknowledge and reward. Disclaimer: Some of the barking is from me with the purpose of inciting barking from my student. There was additional barking from me because I enthusiastically got caught up in the excitement of barking. That is all.
DOG ALERT! If you see a dog in this or a similar situation, jump into action and help this dog! (See image here) Be willing to be a voice for those who are not heard. Bravely, and kindly, stand up for dogs who are at the mercy of others in need of clarity. When we take a moment and wonder how we'd feel as the individual in need of help, it makes us braver. I'm not saying we'll do it perfectly. But if we find the courage to align ourselves with the dog, sincerity will carry us through. We might sweat bullets of fear, but let's do the right thing for the dog. Right? Right. P.S. Don't be a doggy downer who creates Doggy Don'ts.
Today grab this offer and let us know how it goes for you :-) Who knows how long it will be available so act quick. I give it an enthusiastic YES recommendation. Here is my now public playlist on Spotify: Gabriel's Pet Playlist We listen to it most days!
So many times we overlook the most powerful asset with our dogs. And if you continue to, you, and your dog, really miss a spectacular relationship builder. Listen and then share YOUR powerful asset and how it benefits all here.

This is a fun and also very serious topic. Dog play can look like dog fighting and dog fighting can look like dog play. Learn how to tell the difference. It can be a fine line. It is important for you to know your dog's play style and set them up for success with appropriate dog friends. What is your dog's play style? Have you found good friends for your dog? How did you find them? We'd love to hear about you and your dog's experiences.
EVERYONE will be happy with this arrangement. Isn't that enough to entice you to listen to today's podcast? One of the best parts is how easy it is and how receptive your dog will be. People will envy your relationship and the results of your teamwork. Give it a shot and share your results with us: https://www.facebook.com/AngelDogInc/ We all love a good story, smile.
There are many reasons you may live with an excitable dog - a young dog who has a ton of excess energy, a working dog who needs a job or several, a bored dog spending too much time alone area few reasons.

Over and over! And it's so cute! Yes, we love sharing stories about our beloved pup to everyone. However, let's look at this and two other similar in the news dog tales. We'll identify why these situations happened and how they evolved into bigger problems that were dark and not funny or wanted. We'll wrap up talking about solutions :-) And ideally, you will be able to jump on the preventative measures. So what do you think? What's your favorite dog story you loved to share?
