WHERE IS THE BREEDER?
I wonder how many people will read this post and notice what immediately caught my attention, because I have a feeling that most readers will do exactly what we have all been conditioned to do. They will begin answering the question. They will recommend the best slicker brush, their favorite dryer, a shampoo they swear…

WHAT IS THE SYSTEM REWARDING?
I keep finding myself doing this. I will begin reading something that appears to be about one subject, and somewhere along the way I realize I am no longer thinking only about what is written on the page. Today it was an article about the history of dog shows and the changes that occurred when…

WHAT IF VETERINARIANS ARE ASKING THE WRONG QUESTION?
This exchange stayed with me for days. Not because I think the veterinarian gave bad medical advice. I don’t.

The answer is not that every puppy…

Cultivating What Has Been Entrusted to Me
The older I become, the more I realize that my greatest influence has never come from competing with others. It has come from cultivating life. Whether I am raising a litter of puppies, teaching a piano student, encouraging someone at church, writing an article, or opening my home to those around me, I find myself…

THE PERSON THIS JOURNEY WAS REALLY BREEDING
One of the lessons I never expected to learn was that choosing a different path rarely brings comfort. Conviction has a way of making life more complicated before it makes it more meaningful. Clarity often comes at a cost. The more deeply you study, observe, question, and accept responsibility for the consequences of your decisions,…
