Summer is here and summer activities are in full swing! We're doing our best to serve our clients, which always includes cleaning, cleaning, cleaning. The entire kennel is disinfected every morning, and as such it can be a wet environment. Quick reminder, we ask that our clients do not send their dog food in the original dog food bag packaging. In a sometimes moist environment, it really needs to be in an airtight container and the approximate amount needed for the pet's stay. Ziplock bags, buckets with lids, dog food containers, ice cream pails, and tupperware are all ideas of what's appropriate. We also run out of storage room when we recieve 5 or 6 50 # bags of food for a weekend.
We appreciate your cooperation in helping us keep your pet's food fresh and safe!

Nip has been found! He found his way back, just needed help navigating the final fence. Thanks to all that watched for him and shared.
Nip is an approximately 1y old springer spaniel that went on a run in the field and has not returned yet. Last seen location Lincoln Rd/119th St. We have been searching, but could use some direction if anyone has seen him. He's a little shy around new people, please give me a call if you spot him and we'll be there ASAP. 258-5001 or 471-5630.

Looks like we may get a white Christmas after all! As we move into the busy holiday season, here are a few quick reminders.
*Please only pack food (in an airtight/water resistant container), meds and treats for you pets. We do not need anything else during their stay. With the recent national attention regarding respiratory illnesses in dogs, reminder that we do not use blankets or beds from home. We have kuranda beds for every dog that are disinfected daily. We have not seen any of the serious illness in the Bismarck/Mandan area. Our standard rule is if a dog shows a sign of any illness they must be picked up.
*All dogs must be up to date on their distemper combo shot, rabies shot and bordatella shot at least a week prior to boarding. If you are giving other vaccinations to you pets on top of those, you must comply with the rule of a weeks wait regarding those vaccinations as well.
*We accept cash/check for payment. Payment is due at pickup, regardless of whom is picking up your pet. If there's a chance a friend/family member may pick up your pet please be prepared by leaving payment with your pets belongings, or sending payment with the pick up person.
*Please be sure pet medications are clearly labeled. This includes changing the doseage on the bottle if necessary so that we give meds correctly.
Thanks to everyone for taking the time to read this and we'll see you and your pets soon!

How many partridge can you see?
10/10/2023
If you look closely you can see the dust flying. This covey of partridge move about the kennel yard and even though I watch them walk across the lawn while doing obedience, the dogs never flush them in the yard.

Sarted English Springer Spaniel for sale. Sire: FC Bears Paw Baron Dam: AFC Stong's Winfall Sage MH DOB: 05/10/2022 Belle, has lots of speed, style, and action. She is line steady by herself, and in a group setting. She has a tender mouth, a hard flush, and a quick pickup and delivery.. she is not steady to flush, but the foundation is in place. Belle has very good field trial potential, or would make a great pet and hunting dog. Selling her so I can buy more fishing tackle, and lots of it. $5000.00
Some indoor obedience with lots of treats, a healthy serving of food , and the AC set at 69 degrees makes for good napping contions.
I'm so tired of obedience!
Could have been worse!
One nice thing about the North Dakota winters is the warm up that we comes in early to mid January. Makes all the snow go away.

Have a gun shy/noise sensitive dog? Have a client with a gun shy/noise sensitive dog? This is what we do at Absolute Gun Dogs to help. We've yet to have a dog that this process did not work to solve the gun shy issue. A gun shy dog will have one of two reactions to the noise. 1. They will run back to you for safety, or, 2. They will run away from you and the noise and try to seek shelter. I believe the 2nd reaction may be more common by a dog the fears the noise and the source. I've heard of lots of other noise issue corrections, and have tried many of them. Sometimes they have worked, but never with the sort of consistency that this method has proved, knock on wood. This particular dog, Koda,, had previously jumped off the table one time during the introduction to the table(this is common, especially with noise sensitive dogs). As you will see in the video, she thought about jumping off, but her memory served her better. When they jump off, it's important to not communicate with the dog, simply lift them back onto the table and walk away. Let the dog take responsibility. Jumping off the table and essentially being jerked by the neck and struggling to keep her feet on the ground is what creates the proper environment for the dog to learn. Now, there are consequences for running from the noise. I will be posting additional videos to show the transformation process, most of which can be viewed through her posture. At first, they want to run away. Since that is no longer an option, they typically just don't look at it. However, after a few sessions 4-6-8 days of this, they begin to focus on the bumper and the dog retrieving. They will watch more closely and their demeanor seems to improve. On occasion it takes a little longer, but be patient, this works.
