OFF-THE-PAW ADVICE STRAIGHT FROM A MUTT’S MOUTH

Sometimes, it helps to hear things from a dog’s point of view. Poncho the Dog wrote the advice column A Pooch’s Perspective on EdHat, a Santa Barbara community site that connects residents with local news, interests and each other. Though he has since left this Earth, Poncho’s advice to his human neighbors remains as timely as ever, providing valuable insight on dog training, behavior, supplies and more. His legacy includes the creation of his tried-and-true Mutt Model for success, which received a proud stamp of approval from his mom, Joan the Dog Coach. Head on over to Edhat for Poncho’s perspective, and find out if his sage advice sheds some light on your own canine conundrums!
