Welcome to our site!

This site is about dogs - but more than that… it is about our relationships with our dogs, ourselves and our communities.

The Well-Healed Hound provides training advice and seeks to promote greater understanding of the human/dog relationship. This site will help you navigate through the inner and outer aspects of ownership.

Why the well-“healed” hound?

One of my happiest moments is when I am walking with my dogs at heel. In a perfect heel, there is no tension on the leash. There is no push or pull. We are balanced. We flow together as a harmonious pack; attentive, relaxed and filled with a sense of mutual trust. It is the perfect reflection of my relationship with my dogs at its best.

In my work with dogs and their owners, my underlying objective is to “heal” the relationship by cultivating that sense of harmony, balance and trust.
