❤️🐾Please help us congratulate these brilliant level 1&2 therapy dog teams!! They have all worked very hard and are all well on their way to creating a new career for themselves! Congratulations again 🎊🎉🐾🫶❤️
These brilliant pups all successfully passed their bachelors of obedience program with flying colours!! We are proud of each and everyone of them and all their hard work! We can’t wait to see them all again for their masters program! ❤️🎓🐾
In classes we always discuss work/life balance for our working dogs and how to build enrichment in their lives, a great way to let our dogs just be dogs and decompress is to take them on a 'sniffari' or 'go sniff' walk and let them use all their dog senses and just enjoy themselves ❤️🐾 Charlotte had a big day of working with a SDit team and doing errands with her handler so to decompress afterwards she went on a walk where she just used her nose. You can see her nose is to the ground 99% of the time, she's on a long lead and leading the direction of the walk wherever that little nose takes us! A 2km sniff walk will exhaust her more than a 5km physical walk as she's using all her senses versus being in a heel and obedient the entire walk! I urge you all to try it and see the happiness in your pups face and the adventure they take you on ❤️🐾

This great video was created by some Level One Online students to show accomplishing some elements of socialization. Rich, Mag and Leo did such an excellent job! (And thanks to our guest stars Nikko & Bianca) I definitely think they will be ready for their test next week :-)
Happy Thanksgiving Caring K9 Families! Mine got Peanut butter and banana pup-cakes topped with bacon. ❤️❤️ Recipe:
1 cup of flour, 1 ripe banana, 1 egg, 1 cup peanut butter. Cook at 350 for 10 min. Topping: peanut butter mixed with Greek yogurt (I didn’t measure, just mixed it for texture) then put some Costco bacon bits on top. They are a hit!
Congratulations to our Puppies with potential 1! Everyone did amazing and it was such a joy working with you and your dogs. Can't wait to see everyone in future classes.
