Hello Reader; Beverley Courtney has made a new post at Brilliant Family Dog: Your dog is saying more than you think June 16, 2026 It used to be said that dogs had the memory of a goldfish and only lived in the present. Yes - a lot of things used to be said, which fortunately aren’t being said any more. And there are two things wrong with that statement above - Goldfish have very good memories and respond well to training. Dogs have very strong memories of what has happened in the past and...

Hello Reader; Beverley Courtney has made a new post at Brilliant Family Dog: My next dog will be … an individual!

But plans start to slide into place after a couple of months. Then...

Hello Reader; Beverley Courtney has made a new post at Brilliant Family Dog: Does your dog talk to you? April 21, 2026 I knew from the start that my puppy Yannick was fearful. He found the world a challenging place, full of alarms and frights.
