In this episode, we flip the script a bit. We typically talk about the importance of taking the time to train our pets but today... we talk about the importance of training OURSELVES to better support our pets. An untrained human can seriously, and in some cases, unknowingly negatively impact our animals lives by creating an environment filled with stress, fear, and anxiety.

Join us as we break this topic down to help you better understand what you can do in order to better support your animals. The more trained you become, the happier your animal will be and your relationship with them will become deeper.

In this episode, we ask the question... Does size matter? Now, Some of you might be snickering a bit with that question, but I’m sure you probably know that that’s not where we are going with this. Where we are going, is a discussion about how the size of our dogs & cats, whether they are purebreds or not, can have various effects on their physical health, behavior, and overall well-being. So what DO you need to know if you are considering larger breed? Join us as we break it all down for you.
