Dog Support, the newest initiative on my blog, is now live and up and running.

You can access Dog Support anytime by clicking on the green slide button at the bottom of every blog page.

The page’s design is from the wizards at Mannix Marketing, and I thank them once again for their support.

Dog Support is a big step forward for me. I thought about it for a long time.

I can use the knowledge and experience I’ve accumulated about dogs for many years as a dog book author, and I can help people who have problems and worries about their dogs.

I don’t mind getting paid (modestly) for my work. I’m worth it.

I’ve gotten over that.

I’ve already handled more than a dozen cases, so far, so good. The program is helping some dogs and the people who love them, sometimes too much.

I love doing it, and the response has been more than gratifying.

I offer Dog Support three times a week, Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 5 p.m. Eastern Standard time on Zoom and the phone. It costs $50 per half hour, which will rise to $65 per half hour early next year.

I’ve used the last weeks for a trial and to look for glitches. I’ve found none. I’m ready to go. I am not a veterinarian, a shaman, an animal communicator, or a professional trainer.

I fill the holes in between.

Dogs are more and more important to people than ever before; I’ve written that dogs are now the emotional support of people.

The Zoom and other meetings are confidential unless I ask permission to write about the problems we have taken on, which has to be granted.

I only do this rarely, and if there is something important we have learned to pass on to others.

Even then, I don’t use the dog or human’s name or location; no one is in any way identifiable. And most of the time, I don’t write about the experience.

People without $50 should have a chance to benefit from the advice and solutions.

To apply for this support, click on the button below, which will take you to an information page.

The form asks only for the name, e-mail, an optional photo of the dog, and what it is you want help for.

I’ll get back to you, and we will sort out the rest. The sessions are available on Zoom, a smartphone, or  Facetime. I don’t abandon people; I like to stick with a problem until it’s solved.

Payment is via Paypal or Venmo, or checks, preferably in advance.

This is a calling for me, not a job. I believe I’m capable of this, and I think I can be good at it.

So check out the sign-up page, and please let me know if you need help. Contact  Dog Support or write me at [email protected].
