Discipline with Love

My first story, "Sal and Sam (Birth of my Dog Training Career)," happened one memorable night in 1971, when my friend Sal introduced me to Sam, a black Labrador mix he rescued from a local shelter. By the time the evening ended, there was absolutely no doubt in my mind that I was going to be a dog trainer.

I have been blessed with many captured moments during my career, and now, sixty years later, I have the privilege to share some of these captured moments throughout my lifetime training dogs.

In the following true stories of friendship and love, like "Marne and Jax," "My Duke," "Harley (Home at Last)," and many others will inspire readers about our wonderful relationship with our world of dogs, made possible through discipline with love.
