Thanks— it’s a deal! RT @BarracudaBlues: @ksdao Loved having you as a guest in our UW behavior class just now! Wish it was a full@day instead of only an hour! If you’re ever in NC, hit me up! I’d love to chat over coffee (or an adult beverage!)

😃🙏 RT @themariadawn: Enjoyed a lovely presentation by the wonderful @ksdao, “But My Dog Isn’t Food Motivated”. While my dogs are highly food motivated it was great to learn how to better help “picky eaters” so I assist my clients with common challenges.
