Our goal is to simply share some of our knowledge and experience as working parents and pet experts who understand that our relationships with our pets can impact and change our lives. In addition, we will share current events and some funny antidotes. We want to offer advice on dog care and training. How to raise a dog, dog facts, etc... Examples could be the food we choose, the exercise methods, where we board them, and what is the best way to groom them?
