Chica Curtis, the force behind Cause4Paws rescue org. in Mexico tells us like it is when it comes to helping dogs in small town Mexico..SnipPet - Why "NO!" is sometimes effective - and sometimes not.

Chica Curtis is well seasoned with the Mexican community and the dogs that hang out with them.

The SnipPet Tip is back by popular demand - a short piece on a random topic (commonly associated with the interview). 

The SnipPet Tip: Often rescuers and those "naturally good with dogs" achieve their goals with techniques that are often ineffective with these dogs once homed.  Why is this? and is this wrong?

Season 5 is a "Dogology" (kinda like a mixology) of tips, Q and A's, interviews, discussions and a deeper look into the 3 components of UPWARD Dogology all with the goal of increasing awareness and making the world a better place for all animals, including humans! Season 4 is interviews with people and organizations that help animals. Increase your awareness and be part of the solution by listening, sharing, and reviewing.  Season 3 dives deep into trending methods. Are they right for you and your dog? Season 2 shares the learning journey of my clients with dogs with different issues and backgrounds; always interesting and a great way to feel a connections with others who have similar experiences.  Season 1 starts by sharing my unique learning journey and then dives into why positive reinforcement training (and practices under that "umbrellas") are often limiting, ineffective and/or counter-productive with dogs over 6 months. It finishes with an introduction into cognitive behavioural therapy and UPWARD Dogology.
