I’ve reserved five Zoom slots for people who wish to talk to me about their dogs, a new experiment with offering experience and counseling to people who have questions and concerns about their dogs: how to get the right one, how to deal with keeping children safe, and how to deal with dog love, dog death, grieving and positive reinforcement and common sense training.

The sessions cost $50 and go for 30 minutes. The available times are all at 5 p.m. EDT. Today (Wednesday, October 12th, Friday, October 14th,  Monday, October 17th, Wednesday, October 19th, and Friday, October 21st, all at 5 p.m.

If that works out, I’m considering offering experience and counseling about dogs and expanding to blogging, writing, and spirituality. I’ve written many books about dogs, hosted three call-in dog ration broadcasts, and lived with dogs all my life. I’ve also successfully trained several herding dogs (and failed at one.)

My goal is not to tell you what to do but to help you do what you want. We can talk on Zoom, or on the phone if you prefer.

I am getting older and want to share what I’ve learned. If you’re going to talk to me during one of these slots, please e-mail me at [email protected]. I’ll confirm the appointment and send the payment details. Once paid, I’ll send a Zoom link and confirm the time.

I think this is a good direction for me, and I hope I can help deal with the growing complexities, emotional issues, expenses, and choices regarding having a dog. I’ve also written extensively about dog grieving and death.

So if you’re interested, e-mail me; this is an experiment for me, a trial. If it works, I’ll hire a digital marketing firm specializing in appointments and payments. I hope to talk to some of you soon. [email protected]
