Damon provides a fresh perspective on some typical doggy antics. Whether it’s the irresistible urge to jump onto the sofa or the sneaky snack theft from the dining table, he believes in understanding over punishment. “Punishment doesn’t change behavior, it only suppresses it,” he notes, emphasizing the importance of mutual respect.

Challenging age-old beliefs, Damon confidently debunks the myth that old dogs can’t learn new tricks. He shares, “That saying is ridiculous. Last year I trained 10,11,13, and 14 year old dogs.” A testament to the evergreen learning spirit of dogs!
