about

I am 48 years old (yes that's old compared to some of you).


I have worked in nursing and/or healthcare management positions for 24 years. Primarily OB, Neonatal, Mental Health, Occupational Health and Geriatrics. In Jan 2008 I started my own business to board horses and do equine/human education. I am also a certified dog trainer.


I've been around the block so to speak and seem to be always helping others. I've been told that the reason people seek me out for advice is that I am approachable and caring. But on the same token even though I consider the person's feelings. I tell it like I see it. I've dealt with people in trouble with the law, dysfunctional families such as those with abuse & marriage problems. Not to mention problems with employees and employers.


I don't ever claim to know it all, and always keep an open mind.

Ok,I have 2 animals.A kitten,and a dog.Here's the problem:THE DOG IS AFRAID OF THE CAT!!Here's more decripsion:
Dog: Male Pekingese will be 4yrs on Jan 1 pure Name:Andy
Kitten female Pursian will be 1yr on x-mas pure Name:Fluff
What do i do to help.We got Andy 4 $125.And Fluff was $200.I don't want to give up ethier.Plez help me help Andy get over his fear of Fluff!

Some dogs and cats can learn to get along, others never do. Don't punish the cat or the dog, but try to distract them when they are in the same room. If the cat goes after the dog, you will have to interupt her. By constantly repeating this the cat may learn that the dog is off limits. Otherwise if this doesn't work, try not to worry about it so much, because both of them will pick up on your anxiety and make the problem worse. If you ignore the animals they may just be able to work it out on their own.
