The cats and dogs who have shared their lives with me have been great teachers of love, living in the moment, forgiveness, finding solutions, and finding peace in acceptance. Their personalities have made for such different relationships. My memories are filled with the dignified, the clowns, the peace between cats and dogs enjoying a warm fire, and those quiet moments of just watching them sleep. I want to write about what I have learned, what I am learning, and what I will learn with the newest changes to my pack and pride.
My dog trainer suggested I blog about training my current pack. She enjoyed our conversations and thought others might enjoy being part of the conversations. I love to write! I love my critters! I love helping others by sharing information. I thought about writing a blog and asked a few friends if they thought anyone would read it. All said they would read it.
My goals for this year of blogging about life with dogs and cats will be to follow our journey with building a trusting relationship with Gabe and Rose–our newest pack members. They look like bully mixes and we want to be responsible for helping them be part of the human world–safely for all involved. I would love to build a community of people who discuss how to improve the human and animal world. Years in rescue mean I know about the sad and the scary. I also hope to make the blog a revenue generator by sharing products we use and love.
If you love dogs, if you are struggling with chewers, if you love funny stories about learning to be better with critters–this blog could be a new virtually connection for you!
