"Raise your words not your voice. It is the rain that grows flowers not thunder"-Rumi
"That we experience the world from a human perspective doesn’t mean that we can’t work to see things from the perspective of non-humans, and I’ll argue that empathy is a skill that helps us in doing this." —Lori Gruen
There are simple skills we can learn that will reduce risk of dog bites and save lives. All too often, people end their relationships before they can truly flourish. I am here to let people know there are solutions, simple ways that will work to improve our relationship. Simple changes we can incorporate including kind management and humane communication. There is hope if we are willing to be open to learning.
The profound trust between animals and their people is a powerful vibration of joy we all need more of especially these days. I feel blessed to be able to share what I know with others in need. Through my work and books, I am excited to continue supporting people with a better understanding of their beloved animal friends, and to inspire more of this joy and love in our world.

This website is a resource I offer to share more about our relationship with dogs. Here you'll find information about my book Being A (good) Dog In The Human's World, research in dog behavior, free animated videos to help reduce the risk of bites to children, and links to written articles and my podcast. Warm woofs and wiggles to you all!
