Puppy Love

4Sense Canine Communication

It was love at first sight.

Then the honeymoon ended. He was awful to strangers, acted out when you made plans without him, and showed no respect for your home or belongings.

Sasha Mangrum of 4Sense Canine Communication may hold the secret to your peace of mind. Mangrum is Chicago’s dog listener. Her work is based on that of famed dog listener Jan Fennell, so you can rest assured the training style has a good pedigree.

Dog listening takes its cues from the behaviors of Fido’s ancestor — the big bad wolf. Mangrum says that most problems with domestic pups stem from the fact that they assume the same role in your home as they would in the wild. And since Mangrum can’t ask a dog to think like a human, she works with the owner to get you into a canine state of mind. In just one session, Mangrum gives you the tools to regain control of the situation.

Leaving you fully equipped for a dog-eat-dog world.
