We are “snow birds” in Fl., but will be returning to St. Louis the end of March.
Thank you.

Connie, let us know where you live and perhaps we could refer you to a qualified trainer to help. Without being able to see your dog’s body language it’s hard for us to know what her motives might be. Either way the goal would be to help your dog focus on you and be relaxed in the presents of the other dog.

Our new adoptee, a young female pit who was left in an abandoned, dilapidated house with no food or water, is now a happy loving member of our household which also includes another female adoptee whom we have had for almost 13 yrs. The two girls get along beautifully. Since we are too far away to enroll in your Cold Nose College classes, I am wondering if you can direct me so some resources to help our young girl to react calmly when she sees a SMALL dog. She does not bark, growl, or show her teeth, she just pulls extremely hard on the leash in an effort to get closer. We don’t allow her to get close as we don’t know what her motives are, to be friendly or not. Any suggestions would be most appreciated.
