Happy National Labrador Retriever Day!
We sure love our Labradors. Above all else their temperament is the hallmark of the breed. ❤️❤️❤️

Today is National Labrador Retriever Day! Their gentle ways, intelligence and adaptability have done much to account for the Lab’s popularity as a pet. Their disposition is kindly, and outgoing coupled with an eager-to-please nature and general non-aggressiveness.

Aujourd’hui, c’est la journée nationale du retriever Labrador! Gentil, intelligent et polyvalent, le Labrador est donc très populaire comme animal de compagnie. Son caractère doux et amical est associé à un grand désir de plaire et à une absence d’agressivité.

There is something very peaceful about an old dog basking in the sun. This is our sweet old girl we affectionately call "Skinnie" taken yesterday. From the moment she was born she had an incredible drive and desire. Working hard to get what she wanted - which was simply just to be beside us. With us. As close as she could be to us that's what she wanted. She was never overly affectionate, she did it because that was her life's purpose. To accompany us by our side. She has remained through her amazing 16.5 years the MOST faithful dog I have ever known. Never wanting to be left behind and asking nothing more then the simple pleasure to be in your presence. At 16.5 our time we have left with her is very short. We can see her body failing her. At this point she is and has outlived many of her kids. If you have enjoyed the love of one of Skinnies babies please share a comment or favorite picture. I know for sure she has given her puppies strong heart and desire. That's why at 16.5 she is still with us. Here's to Skinnie, or "CowboyUp's Black Magic". 💝

We have a very sweet 8 month old yellow male available. Max loves kids, so gentle and easy going. He has a great start to house training, great in the crate and walks on a leash and has great meal time manners(sits and waits for his food.)

My good friend Stacey Wagner and I are excited to officially announce our joint effort. We are proud to bring our community, our province and to those in need: Summit Service Dogs !!! We have been working hard these last few months behind the scenes to bring our dream to light. We have chosen to focus on Autism Service dogs as well as Facility dogs. There is a lot of passion and dedication in Summit. From the very beginning we knew we wanted to help children, we wanted to serve our community and we wanted to do right by our dogs.
Even if you don't require a service dog we appreciate all the likes, comments and shares.
We will post training tips, our community service and pictures of our dogs training. We encourage you to follow us along on Instagram and Facebook as well as check out our website: www.summitservicedogs.com

Welcome to Summit Service Dogs!
Located in Medicine Hat, Alberta we specialize in Autism Service Dogs & Facility Dogs. Summit Service Dogs raises and trains their dogs ethically & with integrity. Their knowledge, passion and commitment to quality & professionalism shines through. Summit dogs are trained using positive reinforcement without the use of aversive techniques or equipment. At Summit Service Dogs you will find Labradors that are purposefully bred, raised & trained. Stable temperaments, excellent health & quality genetics are found in the dogs that make up the program.
Summit Service Dogs was born with the intention of helping children to reach for the top of their mountain. To achieve greatness & to “reach the peak” as summit is defined.
