For those who are new to my network and my content, here's a bit about my passion, my purpose, and my mission... In July 2020, I founded Lesley Osborn Canine Consulting to provide education and guidance on fostering, adopting, and caring for adult, senior, and special needs dogs. My company’s preeminent goal is to empower people to provide loving forever homes to rescue and shelter dogs. The focus will always be the “QUALITY OF THEIR LIVES.” I have shared my life (and it’s a long one) caring for rescued adult, senior, and special needs dogs by providing them a forever home in my home—a safe, secure place I call GREYSETT. Now I offer my knowledge and expertise to anyone—whether you’re looking for a first dog, adding another dog, or just need some advice about your present canine family. I provide proven and practical solutions for the issues dog parents may face. Integrated into my company are my passion, mission, and values: ■ Our Passion — Helping people save dogs from neglect, abuse, and abandonment. ■ Our Mission — Educating people on how to adopt dogs and provide them with forever homes the first time. ■ Our Core Values — • Never Perpetuate Their Pasts • Be Their Solution • Canine Families Are Forever! I believe the bonds between dogs and "their people" improve each other's lives—physically and emotionally. #lesleyosborncanineconsulting #dogsarefamily 🐾💞🏡 #doglovers #humananimalbonds #caninehumanbonds #emotionalsupportdogs #storytelling #author 🖋️ #TiaTalksBook - available on Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and all booksellers.

Adopting vs Shopping All dogs deserve loving homes, regardless of where they come from. Adopt, don't shop is a standard some deem absolute. I agree with the principle - but there's more to consider. Many responsible people are dog breeders. When a litter is born not all pups are deemed fit for the show ring in the breeder's opinion. These pups are often reserved for those looking for a pure-breed dog as a family companion. A responsible breeder may not feel a particular pup's conformation is appropriate to represent their show line. Much work in the genetic planning of future litters in the dog show world goes on behind the scenes. Breeders who work like this are good people, who care about the placement of their pups. On the flip side - many show dogs will be looking for loving homes after their show careers are over. Responsible breeders look for the perfect home for these canines to spend their golden years in surrounded by love with a family outside the ring. And on the following, I speak from experience. I had two English Setters that had been thrown over a fence - no longer wanted. Guess where they came to live? GREYSETT! These are a few of the reasons pure-breed dogs find themselves in shelters. This is the reason for breed-specific rescue groups. Check these groups and it's not uncommon to find mixed breeds in these rescue groups. Be careful with your words, Not all breeders are "puppy mills." Reputable breeders care about their dogs and where they are placed from birth through retirement. #lesleyosborncanineconsulting #dogsarefamily 🐾💞🏡 #doglovers #storytelling #author #TiaTalksBook 🖋️

"Howdy, it's me, Arwen 🐾🌞👋 My dental procedure is done and I'm home. And I still have teeth in my mouth! It's confirmed. I do have a collapsing trachea and this is being medically managed. No biggy - I have a wonderful primary care vet. Now I wear a harness while enjoying a walk with my Mom. It takes the pressure off of my throat. I preferred my collar. It was quick. It took her so long to master the art of properly getting this thingy on me that it was a waste of MY time. It took her longer than we spent on my walk! 🤣 Now she's got it down pat. I still look as cute as a button. Here I am walking down our driveway to check our mail. Anesthesia can take a week to clear the system - just like people. Mom learned something new. 💡 It's taken Mom longer to recover than it's taken me. 😂 I'm sleeping, and Mom's still busy creating stuff. * A message from my Mom to all of you - we'll be back when we are ready. In the meantime, pay attention to us. You are responsible for our well-being. May all of your vet visits be well-check visits." #lesleyosborncanineconsulting #dogsarefamily 🐾💞🏡 #humananimalbonds #storytelling #author #TIATALKSBOOK🖋️📚 Find me on the web. Link in the comments.

It's said that the eyes are the windows to our souls. They are especially when they are the eyes of a dog. I'm Arwen's Mom - I'm biased. 💝😇🎀 #lesleyosborncanineconsulting #dogsarefamily 🐾💞🏡 #doglovers #caninehumanbonds #storytelling #author ✒️📚
