“HAPPY 6TH BIRTHDAY TO MY PATRIOT DAY PUPPY! Cowboy was born on this day in 2015. So hard to believe it's been SIX years! How the time has flown… but he's still a puppy at heart. One birthday photo for each year (except of course, the first one, taken only a few days after I brought him home). What a dog. The first few years were pretty rocky, and full of craziness, stress, wrong decisions, and wondering what I was doing wrong. I thought I was a pretty decent dog trainer until this crazy pup came into my life.
It took a much more knowledgeable friend to teach me an entirely new way of training dogs. It took a LOT of patience and praise, some creative play time, realizing that he was probably a LOT smarter than I was... Thank you Joni M, for your training advice and guidance, and for never failing to point out better ways to bring out the best in this little guy - I am forever grateful. And thank you Connie and John K. for trusting me with your precious pup. I wouldn't trade him for the world.”

From Joni: “Happy birthday Cowboy! What a great story about a boy who changed everything! So proud of you guys!”
