		<description><![CDATA[Mike and I have been slowly training. He has some issues but none would prevent him from being a Service Dog. For example, let&#8217;s look at how Mike perceives the concept of SIT. Most dogs, in learning SIT, are like bouncing balls. SIT means butt hits floor then bounces back up real fast. Not Mike.

		<description><![CDATA[Wow, it&#8217;s been six months since I posted anything here. Mike is now 1 yr 5 mos old. He hasn&#8217;t grown much and is still a maniac. But I like that attribute! My broken leg took forever to heal and now winter has decided to enter with a bang (see links below). We constructed a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It is a harsh reality but it is something that is necessary, and, for some dogs, it is vital. The Nothing in Life Is Free (NILIF) principal is simple: the dog gets nothing without first doing something to earn it. Some dog trainers say that toys should never be left laying around. That they should [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Imagine that you are in France. You cannot speak French and everyone around you cannot speak English. So they teach you some phrases so they can interact with you on a very basic level. Now, let&#8217;s say there&#8217;s a French word for something important that sounds an awful lot like something else important in French. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Normally, I hear about this kind of stuff the day after it is over. But this one I actually find out beforehand! April is the ASPCA&#8217;s Prevention of Cruelty to Animals month. Anything that helps the animals also helps us. I&#8217;d much rather support the ASPCA than PETA. Those guys scare me because while their [...]]]></description>

I adore Patty Summers and have used her several times over the past 12 yrs or so. This past weekend (March 21-22) I had the chance to [...]]]></description>

We&#8217;ve had so many dogs go through this house and have tried so many different products. Some were complete busts. Some were great. All cost money which is why before I purchase something, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There are several websites that offer a huge array of information regarding dogs. They include not only information about the species, but resources such as articles about selecting a dog, where to go for more specific information, etc etc. Dr. P&#8217;s Dog Library is perhaps the first place to start. The best thing about the [...]]]></description>

Like any advice, take and use what feels comfortable to you. Some folk are believers of the Alpha Leader and Pack theories. [...]]]></description>
