Dog Training tips and Information about your Canine
My Name is Kai-Lynn and this is my best friend Mr. Wilson. He is one of the many reasons I decided to create a website, here is our story.
I am a 27 year old single mother of two children a girl who is six years old and a boy who is four years old. I also have a little girl due on March 30, 2012. I have grown up around animals my whole life. I was always the little kid finding the dogs and cats on the street and rescuing them. When I got older I had an interest in working with them. I have done everything from being a vet tech to working and managing one of the biggest shelters in Colorado. I have seen many animals lose their homes, and become the high number of unwanted pets. One of the main reasons is because lack of training that turns into behavior issues. Lack of knowledge on breeds and what they need also contributes to this problem. My goal is to help you and animals Like Mr. Wilson find and stay in their loving homes. Don’t give up on your pets work with them so you can enjoy a lifetime full of happiness.
Mr. Wilson is my current dog I also have a rescue cat names Stewie. Mr. Wilson was taken from New Mexico he was severely abused, underweight, and in jeopardy of being put to sleep because of a neuter that had gone wrong. I was cleaning the dog kennels one morning and saw this poor guy looking so sad so I went to say hi to him. When I walked in I sat on the floor and he crawled over to me so scared that he peed on himself. My heart went out to him and I knew that I wanted to help this gentle giant. On every break I took him outside and tried to play with him. At the time he didn’t know what toys were or what to do with them. After a few weeks he understood how to play ball. I decided I wanted to take him home and everyone warned me that he was going to be terrible with kids, cats, and dogs. Well such to everyone’s surprise he is excellent with children of all ages. Wilson was afraid of my cat and he is great with dogs. He was a dog that everyone gave up on except one person, and because I did not give up on this dog, and gave him a chance he is 9 years old spoiled rotten and living his life as happy as can be. I am not a certified dog trainer or a vet my knowledge comes from my many years working with animals. I hope that my tips can help you and your pet.
