Had such a great morning hanging out with Anya and her boys Yeti and Kingsley! This was Yeti’s second visit with us here and he knew exactly where he was!! He hopped up on the treadmill and ran extremely well for his tug! He had that mill turining💥💥💥Yetti also made huge improvements on the wall and went straight to getting his tug at 6’ and got up just over 9’! Not bad for a little tank of a dog! But it was Kingsley that surprised me today! I think sitting in the car watching little brother run the mill motivated him to do the same. It had been over a year and a half since King was here and he remembered it all! Running so well on the mill, instead of stopping he was content to just hold his tug in his mouth and keep on trucking at a good pace! We took him for a few jumps on the wall where his intentions were CLEAR!! He wanted nothing but to GET HIS TUG!! And that he did!! climbing just over 10 feet by the end of his set! Then we had a drag session cool down walk to stretch out all his well used muscles! What a great way to spend my morning.

Reya, the boerboel had her second visit to Stealhead Bulldogs Dog Sport Facility and she is sure settling in! She did so well on the treadmill, loved dragging in the field, got her big paws up on the wall and played with the lure😆 she got lots of love and praise from her mom and auntie Mandy and treats from me! Did I mention she is absolutely beautiful and I loved taking photos of her big sweet happy wrinkled face☺️
Karma was out for some fun on a beautiful sunny day at Stealhead bulldogs dog sport facility! We didn’t get any footage of her on the lure but thankfully her owners shared the videos of her on the mill,and wall where she absolutely killed it! She has matured into such a wonderful athletic dog! Such a pleasure to work with!
Had an amazing afternoon of personal bests with Puma and her family!! She ran the mill and settled in much faster than last time, trotting quite happily. So we took her outside to the wall. This was her second private session and she figured it out!! Last session Puma put her feet up on the wall to retrieve her ball….today we started with a bunny fur sleeve on a wall climb tug to get her interested and graduated to a regular tug and she was all in! Super foccused and “wanting” her tug!! Puma went from not understanding the game to clearly LOVING it!! Her second day ever trying the wall she retrieved her tug from 10feet 8inches and touched the tug at 11 feet TWICE!! So proud of how she jumpedtoday!
Next we got her dressed to pull and she even made huge improvements there! She was a bit unsure her first few reps and needed guidance and a more hands on approach. Once she understood that by breaking the weighted cart and she would be rewarded at the end, she started to enjoy pulling as well. Puma finished her weight pull session repping 700lbs on an incline. She did SO WELL!!
As with most of our private sessions we finished with the lure! Puma let us know she preferred to chase the rabbit hide and that plastic bags are for chumps😂😂😂 so we gave her what she wanted😆 man can this girl move when she wants to!! I hope she will sleep well tonight after her adventure at Stealhead Bulldogs Dog Sport Facility
Blanco came over for a private and Karmen decided to try weight pull. (Usually blanco does the wall, runs like mad on the mill and lure) This dog blew my mind! 🤯He is such a great dog, so confident, so forward and man he was no different on the track!! We started with the 300lb cart and went up from there! By the time we had him at 860lbs he had already pulled 15+ reps. We capped him at 860 it seemed the perfect weight for him. Enough to slow him down, but not so heavy he would struggle breaking the cart! He KILLED IT! So proud of them both! I hope he was tired after this… but knowing Blanco he was probably ready to go after a short nap😉😂
There is one spot available for tomorrows 2pm wall climb class at Stealhead Bulldogs pm if interested in joining the class
Had the pleasure of hanging with Karmen and her boy Blanco yesterday at Stealhead Bulldogs! Since he now has his own custom built treadmill by Renegade K9, we focused on wall climb and Blanco’s favourite the lure!! Sure wish I had gotten video footage of his climbs as he killed it!! However I did manage to get a clip of him happily running the lure!
🌟UPDATE!!! 🌟 Class has filled!! Thank you all for signing up! Stay tuned for more classes to be posted if the weather stays sunny!

Had out of town clients, in town today, so we had an impromptu first private session at Stealhead Bulldogs Dog Sport Facility for 2023!!! What fun!! Karma was excited as always to come play, and as usual she did not dissapoint! She killed it on the tread mill, tried spring polling with a tug,(loved it) and jumped very well getting up to 12 feet on the wall after running her heart out on the mill. The best part was, that her owners were able to get her foccused on the wall when all she wanted to do was run the lure field!! Which was not even set up… but it didnt stop her from remembering it or protesting😂😂.
Sign up is now available for Wednesday and Thursday evening wall climb classes July 6&7. 6:30pm start (if you cannot get here until 7ish you can jump your dog later in the run order)
We will accept up to eight dogs per eveing.

Please message me at my Stealhead Bulldogs dog sport facility page to confirm a spot for your dog.
Looking forward to achieving new heights!! And more personal bests on the wall!!
Had the pleasure of meeting Kaydo and his person Melany today. This guy was a rock star!! FIRST time ever seeing a wall and by the end of his first session he successfully got his tug from a respectable height of 10’4”!!! But the best part is he pushed up through it to 11 feet!! Not bad for a newbie🤩
