Welcome to WoofCalls!

Some night when the moon is a gigantic ball rolled just beyond your reach for play, if you’re following silvery WoofTracks in the moonlight, perk up your ears: You may hear the long, high echo of WoofCalls.

You may track important long-range goals if you’re a Canine or Significant Human on a quest for Animal/Human understanding at WoofTracks.com, but at WoofCalls our hunt is immediate and urgent: What products, what books can help Humans better hear and communicate with their Companion Animals? What supplies, what tools can Dogs dig up that let us teach our ways to Humans, as if our woofs were words?

At WoofCalls, I and my blogging crew start by sniffing out a problem: For example, maybe there’s a fellow Dog in some household who’s afraid of being left alone while his Human Family members are at work or school. Maybe he’s chewed the furniture in his distress! He urgently needs his Family to understand his fears, and how to help him through them. What solutions can we fetch here? At WoofCalls, we compare products and books: There’s the “Music Dogs Love:While You Are Gone” series of Dog and Animal CD’s and DVD’s; books like “Dogs Home Alone” by Roger Abrantes, that help our Significant Humans train us to learn how to feel more confident; there are dog collars with pherimones for calmness, scents for relaxation, Dog Beds and crates for those who find comfort in their soft cushions and protective spaces. At WoofCalls, we not only review, we compare and recommend solutions, since as Canines ourselves, we sense the scent of troubles in our fellow Kin, and want to help.

Your Editor-in-Chief is a book-hound: I “read” everything I can get my paws on. I love to chew on ideas. Being a self-respecting Canine, I love to use those meaty ideas to help. Remember my fictional hero Enzo’s intriguing idea in Garth Stein’s “The Art of Racing In the Rain”? He learned from his Significant Human, Denny, that “that which we manifest is before us”. I chewed on that for a long time. I admire Enzo, but it’s one romp through this world for me, so I’m manifesting NOW, tossing the WoofTracks ball to you with my nose, howling to help with WoofCalls. Feeling pawprints on your heart if you’re a Human, kisses on your cold wet nose if you’re a Dog? Manifest yourself: Join me.
