This Inquisitive Canine and His Dog Trainer Mom Are on the Move - So is This Blog

Hello fellow inquisitive canine's and inquisitive guardians!

It's official! My mom the Ventura and virtual dog trainer and I have completed the Great Blog Migration over to our newly updated www.inquisitivecanine.com website. This means that:
  1. Mom and I are now joining blog forces!
  2. Mom and I will be updating our blog directly on our own site.
  3. I won’t be updating posts on this Blogger site anymore.
What does this mean for you? Simple. All you have to do is point your browsers to the new site: www.inquisitivecanine.com/blog where you can read our posts while being able to hang out directly on our home website. Very convenient I must say!

Also – if you subscribe to this via RSS, the new feed is here:
http://www.inquisitivecanine.com/dogtrainerblog/feed/

If you receive updates via email, please subscribe at the new blog address:
www.inquisitivecanine.com/blog

And please change all bookmarks to:
www.inquisitivecanine.com/blog

If you receive via carrier pigeon or retriever, you'll have to discuss details with him or her yourself...sorry, that's out of my scope of practice.

In addition to the new blog address, we also have some really exciting changes to our dog training offerings - I hope you’ll check out our new services and products for enhancing your everyday relationship with your dog.

Thanks for reading my Poncho's Prose blog. I always enjoy your comments and support. Oh, and if you think your canine and human friends would enjoy reading and sharing, please feel free to forward it on. We'll see you over on the new site!

Springing Forward Into Fun Dog Events!

Hello to all of my fellow inquisitive canines and inquisitive guardians. My mom the certified professional dog trainer and human-canine relationship coach and I have been so busy with lots of exciting changes here at the office that I've been neglecting my blogging duties. Trust me, I've had lots to say, but for now I just want to drop a quick note (while mom is off the computer) and let you know about some fun and rewarding upcoming events happening here locally:

  • Saturday March 13, 2010: The first annual Ventura Downtown Green Mile run/walk being presented by my good friend Josh Spiker! There are open divisions for humans and even us dogs! The race will start at 8:30am (starting line is on Main St by Cemetery Park / Lincoln school. Check in is at Mission Park, which is where the finish line will be.) The St. Patrick's Day Parade will start at 10am. Light food provided by The Greek Restaurant and Aloha Steakhouse. (OMG! Please save me some steak!!!)
  • Tuesday March 16, 2010: Canine College is one of moms favorite dog manners classes. She teaches this 6-session basic dog obedience course through Ventura College Community Education. Dogs must be at least 4 months of age and owners at least 16 years old. There's also another 6-session course beginning May 4th for those that aren't able to attend this upcoming session.
I know mom is planning on running in the event this Saturday - and she's been training yours truly, so I guess that means if dad can get me out of bed early enough I'll be running it too. I wonder if Aloha Steakhouse or the Greek Restaurant will have any special prizes for us canines? Leftovers perhaps? Hmm, something for this inquisitive canine to ponder.
