Picture of the Month - Southie
Sunday, May 28, 2017
Picture of the Month:
"My girlfriend Nicole and I had two main goals for our Olde English Bulldogge, Southie: to teach her doggie etiquette and to socialize her around as many dogs and humans as possible (a difficult task given our packed schedules). After perusing Yelp and talking to a few community friends, we decided to enroll her in Spring Forth Dog Academy. They specialize in training puppies - a program they describe as a "private school for puppies," said Erlin Rogel, Teacher at Gilbert Stuart Middle School in Providence.
"It's only been a few days, but to give everyone a snapshot of how awesome they are: on day 1, Southie had to be carried into the academy but on day 2, she happily led (not pulled) the way on her leash. She's having a blast!"
