MySmartPuppy Celebrates Its Tenth Anniversary with the Relaunch of a Meatier, More Robust Website

My Smart Puppy Builds Its Online Community with New Media Tools, Content, and an Expanding Community of Dedicated Bloggers

BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--MySmartPuppy, one of the most active and highly regarded resources in the country for dog owners, today announced the re-launch of its website, www.mysmartpuppy.com. The newly designed website features expanded capabilities, stronger branding, and even more content. Unlike other dog training sites which emphasize dominance, control, and physical intimidation MySmartPuppy’s techniques differ by focusing on positive reinforcement, fun and building a better relationship with one’s dog.

“I certainly never imagined ten years ago, 70 years in dog years, that the site would blossom into the incredible community we now have”

The comprehensive new site contains both proprietary and published articles on dogs, as well as instructional videos, webinars, independent and unbiased product reviews, audio clips, information on live training sessions, discussion forums, and blogs serving a community of all ages across the United States and beyond including dog owners, trainers, groomers, sitters, vets, and boarding kennel operators who are dedicated to celebrating and supporting the special relationships we have with our dogs. Visitors to the site may join the MySmartPuppy community for free with limited access to the wealth of material on the new site or become a full member with unlimited access to all of the resources for an annual membership of $29.95.

Founded ten years ago by Master Trainer Sarah Wilson, the site began as a blog building relationships for dog owners by answering questions about everything from training techniques to product comparisons. Earning her Master’s in the human-animal bond, Wilson’s easy to use actionable training techniques focus on safety for the dog, for children, for the family, and for the community. “I certainly never imagined ten years ago, 70 years in dog years, that the site would blossom into the incredible community we now have” said Wilson.

In addition to www.mysmartpuppy.com, MySmartPuppy is also on Facebook and Twitter. The new site features a Learning Center where the community can find answers to problems from hundred of resources. “We think www.mysmarypuppy.com is the best dog training value on the web because it’s very easy to literally save hundreds of dollars from in-person solutions while having full time access to an incredible library of easy to understand, easy to implement information. We want dog owners to achieve their goals. We’re happy when they’re happy. We have a team of professionals who represent literally centuries of combined dog care knowledge. MySmartPuppy is a safe place to learn…closely moderated, supportive, and flame free!” explains Wilson.

Aimee Sadler, Behavior and Training Program Director for the Longmont Humane Society in Longmont, Colorado (www.longmonthumane.org) offered the following perspective. “Sarah Wilson is one of my top ten favorite trainers (and people!) in all of my twenty three years of education and experience in the animal training field. It is rare to find the combination of a master handler and a master trainer in one professional and Sarah qualifies as both. In addition she has an uncanny ability to impart her expertise in a way that is palatable and useful for pet owners. Sarah is a gem as a person and as a professional dog training and behavior expert.”
