Dish-Houston

A message straight from the DISH dog trainer Stephan Bennett at "Get A Long Little Doggie"....

Hi friends,

I hope this finds you and your pack happy, healthy, and balanced. 

This first year in Houston has been a busy, exciting roller coaster and Get Along Little Doggie is growing.  Slowly but surely! 

A big thank you to all our dedicated clients.

A couple of announcements:

Be sure to tune in tomorrow evening and watch me try to combine dog training with reality television! 

Get Along Little Doggie will be featured  on The Little Couple episode, "Rocky's Revenge".  Rocky is the little couple's little Chihuahua and he rules their house! 

The Little Couple airs Tuesday on TLC @ 9PM.

I discovered that filming a reality television show is not very conducive to practical dog training, but it should be good for a laugh nonetheless!   

About The Little Couple:

Bill Klein and Jen Arnold are just like your average newlyweds -- except for the fact that they're both under 4 feet tall! "The Little Couple" is a new series for TLC that follows the couple as they embark on their new life together. They'll face not only the struggles of two little people in an average-sized world, but will also move to a new city, negotiate the purchase of a home, and weigh the risks of planning a family - all while navigating the ups and downs of any new marriage!

Go to the TLC website for more information: 

**Also, right after the holidays I will be conducting a Trick Training class (Yea for stupid pet tricks!) and a Canine Good Citizen Class.  So make sure you keep up with your training!  Just a little bit every day makes all the difference in the world.

Make sure you check back in with the Get Along Little Doggie website every so often as we are in the process of revamping the website (complete with a Thank You Houston Photo Gallery), and designing a blog with tons of new information. 

And of course, we have jumped on the social networking bandwagon.  Even Cowboy and Hud have their own Dogbook page.

Thank you all so much for your support and much love and mega woofs to the dogs!

~Stephanie

HOUSTON...MEET ABBY HICKAM!

Congrats Dow on being a Daddy again and for being so wonderful as to adopt a fur child that needed a good home! There is a special place for you in heaven =)

Whoever said you could not do two things at once was soooo wrong! Paws Houston is one of DISH'S favorite organizations. Here is their latest post on how you can help! If you are able to help, please email Scott@pawshouston.org.

 GIVE A DOG A RIDE

• "Oscar" is an adorable 13 pound Dachshund that rides well in the car and needs transportation to the vet for his annual wellness visit. Oscar lives on the North side of town near Aldine Bender and I-45 and his vet is in Bellaire.

• "Precious" also needs a ride to the vet for her annual wellness visit. Precious is a small Rat Terrier that is cherished by her human mother. Precious lives on the North side of town near I-45 and Airline and her vet is also in Bellaire. Precious has her own carrier so she would be very easy to transport.

Please let Scott know if you are interested in taking either one of these prized pups to the Doctor.

 DOG WALKING TEAM

• PAWS Houston client needs help walking her dog "Honey". Honey is a small adorable 7 pound terrier that absolutely loves people and going for walks. Honey's mom has a hard time getting around and when she does it's with a wheelchair or walker making it difficult to walk her beloved Honey. Honey and her mom live near Woodway and Bering. If you can walk Honey only one time a month within a designated week please let me know. This is a great volunteer opportunity if you happen to live in that area or happen to drive by that area on your way home from work.
