Pet sitter
Muskego, Wisconsin

What's the best dog toy? The Kong.

What mistake do you see owners commonly make? They have no idea about the body language of dogs--they should become familiar with it and know how to read it.

Advice for new owners? Be consistent with boundaries. Also, use the "nothing in life is free" approach.

What's the most important cue or command to teach your dog? "Sit makes things happen."
