National Responsible Pet Owners Month



One of Debi's photos from the January play groups!

I deleted a post with a video. The video was not one of my making and instead was something I found on Youtube. It was pretty heart-wrenching and I decided right after I posted it that it wasn't what we wanted to convey to people. We don't have to always go for shock and pity to get people involved. In fact if you go for shock and pity too often it gives people "compassion fatigue" which leads to people feeling burned out on so many please for help. Instead, I'm going to remind people that if you have any issues you need help with the Lewis and clark Humane Society has a certified behavior counselor and Knowledge-Assessed trainer, Tom Kandt, who, along with another trainer, does in-home counseling. The service is free for people having issues with their shelter dog.

Most people need help from time-to-time. Life and circumstances can be hard sometimes and we are there if you need help with any issues you are having with your dogs. The in-home counseling is free for people who are having issues with their shelter dogs. Others may be charged a fee that is appropriate to the circumstances.

I will give you more of Debi Beardslee's fantastic photos! As you can see it was right after we had a large amount of snow. The dogs had the best time playing in it!



As you can see from his cute butt Tiger is still with us. Hopefully soon someone will realize what a great dog he is and stop passing him by!
