Thinking Dogs



This site is the brainchild of Val Maurer and Lisa Ochoa. It is intended to help people better understand and communicate with their dogs, regardless of whether the people are working with their first dogs or their fiftieth. Though much of the information on this site seems specifically related to Border Collies, it is applicable to all breeds and mixes. Val and Lisa have lived and worked with many different breeds and mixes, but the majority of their research has been performed on Border Collies.

This site is dedicated to the memories of Moss and Oliver

 


Val Maurer's Moss.
