We are dog people. We have been through the wringer with our own rescue dogs, and through the process of fostering, adopting, and rescuing our own animals. This page is for the worried parents up for the fourth night in a row with an anxious new dog.
We’ve been there.
Scroll through our blog pages to get tips on puppy socialization, basic training tips, and local resources. Continue scrolling for local trainers, groomers, suppliers, and places to hang out with your dog!
