"Help My Pet!" with Sandy Wittliff

CLICK HERE for the new "HELP MY PET" with Sandy Wittliff webpage.

Please visit our new webpage for dog behavior advice from Sandy Wittliff, shelter operations and trained pet behaviorist.

Many of our "owner surrender" dogs and cats are a result of misinformation and inconsistent training. Sandy answers questions from real owners in our area.

If your dog's issue is not addressed on the HELP MY PET! webpage, then please email your question (with as many details as possible) to Sandy at HelpMyPet@grandecom.net
