Popular Local Newspaper Seeks Out Eric Letendre’s Advice

Got a call from New Bedford Standard Times ace reporter Brian Lowney. He called me and said: “Eric! We need an expert to come forward and help us inform the public on giving pets for Christmas! We scoured the internet, publications, got expert opinion and your name was at the top of the list. Please, please meet with us and share your valuable knowledge with our readers.” Maybe that’s a little exaggerated. Brian Lowney is a great guy and asked if I could meet him the day after Christmas to discuss pets as presents, dog training and my new book!… Read the rest

9 Out Of 10 Will Think This Is A Sad Story…It’s Not

July 26, 1974. A seven year old boy is wondering why the day is so quiet. He waits patiently but no activity. The hours pass. No cake, no presents, no friends. Finally, a flurry of activity. The mother of the boy flies into action and in a short amount of time, presents arrive and an apple pie comes out of the oven. Seven candles are put into it for the boy to make a birthday wish. Yes, this happened to me on my seventh birthday. Most people think this is a sad story but it’s not. At a young age,… Read the rest

Teach Your Dog These 3 Behaviors And You’ll Be Welcome Anywhere

I am not welcome at two local shelters in the area. Can you believe this? Me. Sensitive, calm, friendly, luvable little fluffball is how I would describe myself. So why would anyone toss your friend and hero out of a shelter? Did I show up drunk? Did I take a swing at a board member? You’re thinking I must have caused some type of mischief or ruckus. Nothing of the sort. I was tossed out for one reason and one reason only. I was asked to leave because I wanted to save dogs. You may think I am exaggerating,  that… Read the rest

7 Holiday Hazards To Avoid With Your Dog

I’ve never done this before. Believe me when I say this… I was very surprised this happened. But it did happen. It is Monday, December 5th and I am done with Christmas. Don’t get me wrong. I LOVE Christmas, especially with two small children. As a bachelor of many years, I would skip decorations, trees, and everything associated with the Christmas spirit. It changes with two small kids. When I say I am done with Christmas, I am done with the working part of it. Christmas tree, decorations, cards, and presents… DONE! Now all I have to do is sit… Read the rest

World Famous Dog Trainer Offering Class In Acushnet

I was checking out my YouTube channel the other day. I looked at how many video views and subscribers I had. My wonderful and supportive wife was close by. “Hey Rach, I have over 12 million views and 22,049 subscribers to my YouTube channel.” I said.   She looked unimpressed. So I added: “I’m kind of a big deal.” I detected a slight eye roll and she asked if I had taken out the garbage yet. Can you imagine living with a celebrity (okay, a minor one, but still) and asking him to take out the garbage? I bet Brad Pitt… Read the rest

I lived with an insane person

I lived with an insane person. Not full on committed to an asylum insane. Just crazy enough to make you run the first chance you got. This person was fun to be around one day and absolutely bat blank crazy the next. One minute you would be joking around and the next minute this person was screaming at you because you didn’t close the refrigerator fast enough. And to argue back was futile. You can’t argue with a crazy person. You only have one choice with a person like this. The choice is to… …run! Run and get away from… Read the rest

Shockingly Easy Dog Training Secret Prevents Behavior Problems

This was bad. I mean real bad. I wasn’t sure how much longer I could hold out. My bladder felt like it was going to burst and I knew it was going to be a while before I could get the closest restroom. Being a complete bonehead, I had tanked up on a large coffee in preparation for the long night I had ahead me. And now I was paying for it. It was my first assignment and I was excited. I had just landed a job working as a private investigator for a large Boston based company. My job… Read the rest

Does Your Dog Ignore You? Do This To Get Attention

My daughter Scarlett is 3 going on 13. I’ll say her name, I’ll call her, I raise my voice and she ignores me. She chooses when to listen to me. It is funny and frustrating at the same time. She has learned if she does not make eye contact she does not have to listen to me. Smart kid. This is a good lesson to remember with dog training. If your dog ignores your command, there is a good chance your dog is not paying attention to you. Dog owners give their dogs commands when they are focused on something… Read the rest

Does Your Dog Eat Grass? Do This To Stop It

Your friend, Mr. Amazing Dog Training Man, is NOT in a good mood this morning. Last week I busted my cell phone. I was not mad about this. It was time for a new phone anyway so off to the T-Mobile store I go. I schedule all of my appointments on Google Calendar. Somehow, someway, not all of my appointments were transferred to my new phone. I have no idea how this happened. So please be gentle with me this week if I miss an appointment.
