I love working with kids and dogs – kids are used to listening and following directions so are often much better trainers than their parents! Rufus and I will be doing a presentation to a group of 4 and 5 year olds tomorrow. We will demo how to approach a dog (Wendy Wahman’s has a great book on the subject: Don’t Lick the Dog) and we will talk about this…

WHAT DO DOGS NEED?

1. Food

2. Water

3. Collar

4. Leash

5. Exercise
