Another magical morning with Elliott. 🥰 Today we finished up a series of sessions with Paulie the #chihuahua mix and his mom. There is a 𝘩𝘶𝘨𝘦 amount of stuff in this world that Paulie finds terrifying, new places especially. Once we figured out that all Paulie needed to feel better about the world was to have a safe space to call his own, we started creating stations that made Paul feel secure and that could travel the world with him... including a tent, a mat, a Volkswagen, and his very own station-on-wheels: a buggy!⁣ Happy #trainingtiptuesday! In "normal" homes the dogs *don't* like it when mom gets ready for work. 😂 Did you need some extra #blackdog cuteness this morning? Big dude Apollo and his little brother Kylo are here to bring you some bonus 🥰 today! Your moment of Zen! 😌 Haven the #miniaussie and Whimsy the #standardpoodle chilling out in Zen Dog class this morning!
