Bam Bam, the 3 year old German Shepherd has joined trainer Meagan for his one week board & train program.

He comes with some severe fear reactivity towards strangers that makes it difficult for his mom to handle him. Once he warms up to you he is your best friend, but he’s “Big & Scary,” to the average person.

This smart guy will do wonderful and we can’t wait to get started working with him.

Crash says it's never to early to get in the Holiday Spirit!!
🎄🎅🐾

These boys took on Home Depot today to work on their obedience and socialization!

Crash struggles with some pretty significant anxiety that was making it hard for his parents to control him within the home and out in public.

He is on day 6 of his 2 week board and train and is already showing significant improvement with his listening skills, leash manners and working through his anxiety in public settings. Everyday he's gaining more and more confidence and we can't wait to see him continue to excel over the next week with Trainer Jordyn! 🐾

💗 Dottie 💗

One of our amazing clients lost her precious girl Dottie over the weekend far too young. In this girls short life she made such an impact on everyone she met. She was truly one of a kind. Her mom does incredible things for the shelter dogs in the area and currently has an Amazon wishlist going to help get these shelter dogs the enrichment they need. In honor of Dottie, let’s try and get everything on her wishlist covered to help improve the life of shelter dogs.

We are honored to have been a part of your journey Dottie girl! We love you 💜

Martin is looking for a home!!

He is currently being fostered by one of my clients and boy is he a fun pup. He’s roughly around 7 months old and is a Weimaraner/malinois/german shepherd mix. I’ve boarded him a few times and he is currently starting some training and doing well.

Martin’s foster family situation is changing due to health concerns with a family member so unfortunately Martin needs to be moved. We’re all hoping we can find him a home versus having to be moved to a 4th foster home.

Martin is:

🐾Crate Trained-goes right in and is so quiet. He settles down right away.

🐾Potty Trained

🐾Started on the Ecollar learning come, sit, place, heel, and break

🐈Cat Friendly

🐶Dog Friendly

🐾Kid Friendly

🐾Travels well in the car

If interested in adopting Martin, please shoot us a message and I can get you in contact with his current foster family! Let’s get this boy a home!

Let’s welcome the newest recruit…Sally Joe, the 1 year old English Setter.

Sally joins us for the one week board & train to work on her manners and solidify her training. Sally is another deaf dog so her training looks different than most of the dogs we work with. It’ll take more patience and time as we teach hand signals and start building a line of communication with her.

Let’s get to work Sally!

Crate training is the first step to a happy, secure, and safe pup!

Bentley came in HATING the kennel ❌. It was an absolute no go for him. He was breaking out of his kennel at home and becoming extremely destructive. His mom went out and purchased him a Dakota kennel which is now keeping him in the kennel while she’s gone, however getting him in was still an issue.

Here he is about to head home from his program going in his kennel on his own and not immediately bolting out.

Great job Bentley!

We just can’t get over how cute Flauta is! She might be deaf, but she is one of the happiest pups ✨

We have lots of Board and Train slots open from now until the new year, along with lesson availabilities. Reach out to us today to get on our schedule or to set up a free consult with one of our trainers!

We’ve got some new cute trainees!

Bentley, the almost 2 year old Australian Shepherd is here for his one week program. His mom’s biggest issues are being destructive and his issues with the crate.

Flauta, the 2 year old All American mix, is here for two weeks and she’s got a special characteristic…she’s fully deaf!! Flauta was born with hearing, but due to parvo & distemper as a puppy, she lost her hearing. Her training path will be pretty different, but, she’s smart and super food motivated so she’s going to do awesome.

Stay tuned for Bentley & Flauta’s progress!

All smiles since it’s almost Friday!!
