London

London is doing great (besides being a puppy maniac haha). Does great with my kids and everyone she meets loves her. I have been doing private hour long training sessions on my property, with the 4th one coming up on Tuesday. I will have her email you her professional and business credentials this week.

Here's to one year with Cooper!! We adopted him on 8/30/18 and it's been an adventure to say the least. We have always had dogs, but they've always been 1 yr or younger. Mr Coop was almost 4 when we got him and had been thru so much with that right leg accident. We went thru ups and downs with house soiling and peeing. I swear, he was mad at us when we left him, so he left us a present upon our return home for almost 4 months . He shredded his fair share of comforters as well, and had some male territorial marking issues with our male cat. Anyway, we figured out ways to deal with it ourselves and figured out that we just need to close doors upstairs or we might come home to a disaster. He also had some belly issues the first few months and was in the ER for bloody stool. They said possible IBS, so we switched him to Pro Plan for sensitive stomach and he's been fine ever since. Lots of trial and error. We did hire a trainer and it was ok, but really didn't solve the house soiling issues. One suggestion from the trainer that worked was his philosophy on working his brain to exhaustion. We use e-collars now and wow do those work! Cooper literally is pinned to our side and walks off leash with no problems! We have had almost zero issues for about 3 months now and this boy is just the most lovable guy!!! Those eyes are so filled with love and he just adores our great dane mix.. they are best buds!! 3 legs hasn't stopped this boy at all and he's a strong as ever.. nothing stops him! I think his transition period just took longed for him and that's ok.. the main thing is, we figured it out! Thank you so much for all you do, I'm so glad this guy is part of our family now! I've attached a picture of him and those eyes.. it's the way he looks at us every day... and that tail is non stop!! hahaha!

Buddy is doing great. We love him very much. He is a sweet boy that is very playful and loving. He and our other dog get along very well. They enjoy rough housing and playing and then snuggling up together when they are tired. Buddy is very gentle with our daughter who is 1 and a half years old. He loves to cuddle up with us on the couch or in a chair. Buddy and our other dog Dottie are signed up for the beginner dog training course at Pets Mart. They start on March 12, it is a six week course. I realize we are a little late signing him up, but I was waiting for my income tax to come in so that we could take them together. Since the first day we have had him, he does have some separation anxiety and does not enjoy his cage. He cannot have blankets in his cage because he shreds them. He still wears a belly band in the cage because he will pee most days in his cage. He is house broken though. He does not go in the house when we are home and holds it all night while sleeping in our bed. That is why I believe he has separation anxiety. I am not the most savy with technology, so I am going to send a second email with pictures. My sister also bought me a Dog DNA kit for Buddy for Christmas. I will send a screenshot of the results. Thank you for your patience. -Heather Byczek and Family
