Okay, so maybe working with a dog trainer won’t result in Fido scooping his own poops like this clever pup (though, this photo sure made me laugh). However, there are instances when a trainer can be of assistance in resolving behavior issues. 

Getting a referral from a friend, veterinarian, holistic animal care practitioner or other reliable source may be a good place to start. Another option is to explore dog trainer associations. 

My friend, Norine Twadell, a Certified Dog Behavior Consultant in New Jersey and owner of Dog Ventures, suggests these organizations to help you find a qualified trainer.

My YouTube video is out! An Introduction to Animal Communication. I’m very excited to share this with you. Please let me know what you think. And please “Share This” with friends and family to help spread the word about the joy of understanding our animals more deeply. It’s an honor and a privilege to do this work.

Please visit and subscribe to my new YouTube channel too!

This link is to a short youtube video of a sweet interaction between a woman and an elephant seal. Hope this makes you smile. Enjoy!
