A Trained Dog is a Happy Dog


Obedience training is the foundation to communicating with your dog. Once your dog understands what “to do” and knows how to please you, life together is much more enjoyable for all. A “no’ to a trained dog means something, but to an untrained dog it is just an unpleasant sound with little meaning. Smart Dogs offers boarding and lesson basis training for puppies and adults. Many Jen’s list subscribers and their families have had successful results. Call Jeff at (818) 371-1231 to get started.

Balance Point Divorce Funding


An inherent imbalance exists in divorce cases when one spouse has more financial resources than the other. This imbalance typically occurs when the couple has just one breadwinner or when there is a substantial income difference between spouses. The more financially secure partner can drag out the process, drive up costs, or hide assets until the less financially secure partner concedes. The resulting community property division is often substantially smaller for the conceding partner. Balance Point Divorce Funding levels the playing field for spouses with combined marital assets of $2 million or more. They provide direct funding for a comprehensive team of professionals to assist you in receiving a fair settlement.
