Indefinite length board and trains for the most aggressive dogs isn’t relevant to most training…

…and approaching most dogs like that’s the case is a recipe for disaster and will inevitably harm dogs.

Learning from such a trainer is a mistake for any trainer who doesn’t have strong foundations.

If your training skill set isn’t diverse, flexible, and open-minded, you’re severely limiting yourself as a trainer.

A strong trainer can meet owners where they are and adjust their approach within reason.

Seeking enemies in the training community is actually harmful to dogs.

Ego is bad for dog training.

Focusing on the most aggressive dogs doesn’t serve the greatest good as it limits the capacity to help more dogs.

This is especially true in the shelter setting. Overpopulation, dogs not moving, limited staff and limited skills can make euthanizing for resolvable issues the correct move as it allows more resources to go to more dogs.

Men’s hairstylist for long hair

Anyone have recommendations for a salon or barber who does well with men’s haircuts styled long?

I haven’t cut mine in a few years, I want to clean it up, trim, style, etc, but keeping it long.

Lamoille county options would be ideal, but it’s not a problem to head a county over.

The season opens tomorrow at Smuggler’s Notch, so it’s time to return Bonnie’s off-season haul!

We walk the course a lot in the offseason, and if there isn’t snow on the ground, Bonnie searches for discs.

Some fun ones that seem like they were out there forever.

The ones on top aren’t marked, the ones on the bottom have numbers and will make it to the pro shop.

Not picture: unmarked Hex that made my bag, two unmarked Beetles I gave away, and two discs returned to pros.
