Sue’s Dogs

Serra

Firezone Firefly at Dragonair

Serra is a Giant Schnauzer. I’m so excited (and exhausted) to be sharing my life with a Giant again. I knew I missed them but I didn’t realize how much until I could once again reach out my hand and find a huge brick-shaped head and a coat harsh enough to clean your boots.

Scuba. What an amazing person she was. She introduced me to the wonders of force-free training and the amazing communication that is possible using a clicker. Literally changed the direction of my life.

So many amazing things she told me, fascinating questions she asked me, facts beyond my imagination she explained to me. I was afraid of the day when I would lose her, but terrified that I would never have another dog whose brain came close to hers.

Was it all her? Or all the training? Turns out it was both, thank goodness! I thank her every day for the insights she gave me into the minds and lives of all the dogs who have followed her.
