A Blast From the Past

Eleven years ago I worked with a family from Shrewsbury Ma. They had an Entlebucher Sennehund Mountain Dog puppy. A breed not well known in the United States. Her name was Mandy and she was one of the sweetest and smartest puppies I’ve ever worked with. She enjoyed a long and happy life dearly loved by her family. Unfortunately she died from cancer a year ago.

Mandy’s owner loves the breed so much they decided to get another one. Her name is Molly she looks so much like Mandy, but has a much more active and submissive personality. In many ways I am glad Molly is so different. I think it will help her owners treat her as the individual that she is.

Her owners had become a skilled dog handler with my guidance years ago, so I was surprised she wanted to sign up for puppy training again! Molly’s owner was insightful enough to realize that all dogs are different and that she wanted the same advantages with Molly as she had with her last dog.

Molly is learning to come when called, housebreaking and walking on a loose leash for now. Her owners are looking forward to having the high level of training that she will have by them once again working with a Private Trainer. I am looking forward to getting to know Molly better and catching up with her family.
