Welcome back to the Zen Dog Spotlight! Golden retrievers Bernini and Samantha live with their adorable yorkshire terrier sister Amber and mama Susie.

All three have been featured on our blog including Bernini and Samantha in Zen Dog Training Tips,  Zen Dogs > El Nino, and Amber in Small Dog Park Adventures.  Molly adores her walks with Bernini and Samantha, and Brandi agrees the small dog park adventure just wouldn't be the same without Amber. This week their mama Susie gives us  some insight to her fantastic furry friends!

"Bernini for his sassiness, Samantha for her loyalty, and Amber for fashionista and sassiness."

Any other insight you would like us to know?

"All three are very different, however all three are still very loving, social and filled with silliness. They all love to be loved all the time. I am crazy to have three, still somehow it works. Amber loves to sleep with our 17 year old. Thank you DogZenergy for working so hard to make the puppies happy. It's nice to be able to trust the walkers coming in and out of our house."

Downward Dog Yoga at Yogasmoga!

We had such a great time at YOGASMOGA La Jolla's locationfor Downward Dog Yoga on Sunday, March 6th.  This was their first class that included dogs with yoga, and it was such a fun class. The dogs were all first acquainted with each other, and then class was in session. Check out all the yoga action below!

All of the yoga students listening to their fantastic instructor Marjorie Ness.

              Lucille and her dad and Chandler and his momma are becoming                                                        pro's at this yoga thing.
