Having spent an hour clearing the clutter and cleaning what was once our summer house (before E acquired it as her beloved art studio) we’ve since reorganised, repainted, and redesigned her studio space with new furniture and a new look… E couldn’t wait to put her new desk and newly painted ‘art studio’ to use by base coating and decorating her block letters to add to the wall for display.

Your family has welcomed a lovely new puppy into your home and you are starting to train it. Right now, it’s a little ball of fluff that’s full of energy and life. But, you know that it needs to be trained to avoid peeing on the furniture or causing all sorts of mischief. You’ve never trained a dog before, so you are also wondering if you should get help with this task. Do you need help when training your dog? To be honest, you don’t. Most people are able to train their pets all by themselves. In fact, it can …
