About Us

The “Kid”

Zooka (Vizsla) joined us in July 2019. His future jobs will be determined as he grows. Current jobs are: keeping Sue and Ed on their toes and wearing them out every day; entertaining our visiting dogs and wearing them out every day; and keeping the bunnies in shape so they can avoid the coyotes.

Wife & Husband

Sue Brown, behavior consultant, dog trainer and writer extraordinaire and Ed Soehnel, dog products and marketing.


Our goal is to positively impact the lives of as many dogs and their families as we can, in part through our extensive library of video, infographics and text articles.
