Hey Everyone-
Thank you all for the beautiful messages and support I've been receiving from the airing of the Wolf-Dog special last night on the National Geographic Channel. There's much more to come as things are moving quickly in a bigger direction... With that said, I have many more research projects I'll be talking about, my work with coyotes and ranch dogs, horses, the Mexican Gray Wolf Program and much, much more! So stay tuned in here to my blog to get the latest news and I look forward to meeting more of you out there on this wonderful journey of helping animals. Howl and woof to you all!
All my best,
Jennifer

New Adventures...

Posted by jennifer on June 14, 2010.

Today I am heading home after spending some time with my friend Henry (a high percentage wolf-dog) as he recovers from an injury from hiking last week. It's one thing to get a 100 lb. animal that is pretty much all wolf, into the back of my Jeep and into emergency care. It's another thing getting him down the mountain, into the emergency clinic off a high traffic area street, going through surgery and then successfully adopting a lamp shade collar. Then after this, having to take him back to the emergency clinic after he figures out how to chew through the collar and pull out his drainage tube. I am happy to report that Henry is now doing well and is no longer resisting the lampshade although many objects tend to fall or get knocked over in his path.

I have a busy next two months ahead of me- I am leaving for Africa in two weeks, packing up a lot of my things into storage and when I return, heading to Arizona to begin a journey back to horses, coyotes, the Mexican Gray Wolf and coexistence issues between wildlife and ranchers. You may be wondering why I do all of this and you will soon find out as I launch a new behavioral concept this fall right here on my website based on four years of research. Don't worry, it still has to do with dogs but on a much broader spectrum.

After heading to Az. for one week, I am then in L.A. to meet with clients then up to a horse ranch where I will be living at for 1-2 years. I will still have my current locations and will eventually be heading back to Colorado but will still be there to meet with clients as I do in L.A. & Vegas in the meantime.

This is good news for those in Los Angeles and in Scottsdale, Prescott & Phoenix as I will be in these areas more often now to service those that need my help.
With all of this research, I have come to find some great advancements in the world of non-human animals so stay tuned for some amazing new information coming soon!
I am off to pack and gather up my equipment for some tent living in the bush of Gorongosa National Park as I document the re-introduction of species similar to that of the wolves in Yellowstone. I will be gathering information on local struggles between wildlife and livestock and see if they are having success with the Hyena and Wild Dog packs that run through the park and into local communities.
Off to pack and will blog from the road!
Best wishes,
Jennifer

No, It's Not Halloween

Posted by jennifer on May 12, 2007.

So, I'm making a point of blogging more although I'm still trying to figure out how to get certain pictures uploaded. (Hence the old picture of Dylan at MW during Halloween...). However, I'm going to invest in a new camera so I'll be taking more recent pictures. This year is chalk full of surprises. For one thing, I'm close to hiring a PR firm. My new media adventure will officially begin on July 15th, 2007. The other exciting new advetures include a new focus on integrating my work with wolves into dogs and the people that bestow their company ;-) My dog trainer school is in full swing with more students coming out to learn the trade and a possible apprentice as my trusty side- kick may be in the works. This year I hope to take a trip up to Yellowstone to observe wolves in their natural habitat and many more trips to Florida and Los Angeles are slated for the coastal customers out there. The dogs are doing great and couldn't be happier living on 5 acers in Colorado. It was a tough winter with lots of snow but we made it through and both myself and the dogs learned a lot about one another from being stuck inside! Elvis has turned out to be a beautiful male with the best temperment one could hope for. Lola continues to enjoy her time spent half way down a prairie dog hole and good old Dylan is always by my side. He's got the mind of a puppy but the body of a 9 & a half year old. Still, I keep him in good shape with exercise and a healthy diet. Mitten, my cat has turned into a ruthless hunter and is now catching rabbits her own size. I'm constanly rescuing things from her grasp. All and all, we're off to a great start this year and I'm very excited for more learning, research and continuing my life long passion working with animals. Stay tuned for an incredible year ahead and check in often as I'll be blogging here more frequently.
Until we meet again-
All my best,
Jennifer

The Ascending Path...

Posted by on August 30, 2006.

Things are busy here at WCDT Headquarters! Today, I presented at The Space Science Institute Speaker Series, and this week, I'll continue to purchase supplies for my first Mission Wolf expedition mid September. Seeing as though I will be up in 9,300 feet elevation, I'll start off sleeping in my North Face Cat's Meow bag, but will switch to another Mountain Hardware bag once the weather gets colder in November. Along with a stove, bear proof containers, first aid kit, food, water and wood, I'll be bringing along a journal to document my travels and will be posting them here exclusively for you on Speak! In the meantime, I'll continue to hike with the dogs to prepare for our Trail Ready Course on the October 7th. As I hike, I'm developing some wonderful new techniques for dogs and their owners who hit the trails. I'm also finding new hikes for our class participants that will meet the challenge of every canine. The natural architecture of Colorado provides a perfect backdrop for all sorts of things. From survival techniques to agility training over many different obstacles, endurance training, etc. this will be well worth the money for any outdoor enthusiast. I'm looking forward to teaching it!
