Yesterday, I said goodbye to you, Monte.

You were my best friend. My hero, my hope, my inspiration, my rock. This last week has been really hard, watching you get worse, slow down, fall apart, and knowing that there was little I could do to take your pain away. I so hoped we could save you, $12000 of surgery would have been a bargain to have even one more happy day with you, but sadly this was not to be.

Are you an animal trainer, behaviorist, veterinarian, veterinary technician, groomer, retailer, masseuse, walker, sitter, or other pet professional committed to force-free training tools and method

Is treat training really "unnatural" or is it what makes dogs dogs?
