The Ramblings of a Dog Lover

Hello. My name is Deb, and I am a dog dork. Now before you screw up your face and go "Bwah?", I don't mean it in a pejorative sense. I love dogs, I love learning about them, meeting them, discussing them and learning how they learn.

I want to know, need to know, how their brains work, how they learn, why they learn, what drives them and motivates them. I want to teach them to excel, I want to show their owners how to reach them, how to teach them, how to create their very own Lassie.

But more than all that, I want to understand. What drives my dogs? What makes them happy, makes them sad, what turns them on, what turns them off?

This is a blog about all of that and none of that. Of our training and lessons, what I learn, where I succeed, and more importantly, where I fail.

Every failure is a lesson learned, another opportunity to succeed. Failure is always an option, it is only by failing we learn.

So. Onwards, dear readers. Whoever you are.
