The overwhelming interest in the new Titan kennel has crashed our site! While we work on spinning it back up, enjoy this picture of a litter of Golden Retriever puppies inside the Titan!

We have signed and returned our website developer’s contract! We will be setting up a meeting to go over some final details soon!
In the meantime, are there any veterinarian practices, pet emergency vets, pet hospices, or pet crematory’s where you would like to see our services offered?
Drop or tag them in a comment and we will reach out to them to see how we may be able to support their patients’ family. Of course a DM works well too!!
Looking forward to this adventure!

"Terriers ARE reactive, it is part of their breed"
"Collies ARE velcro dogs, they will panic when you leave them"
"Greyhounds WILL fight other dogs, what did you expect"
Nope, no, nopeity NOPE ❗❌
There is a very big difference between breed traits and behavioural issues.
While breeds can absolutely have inclinations, behavioural issues shouldn't be dismissed as "just what their breed does".
It is completely unfair to let a dog live with serious behavioural issues because people are wrongly told it is "just the way they are".
Unfortunately confirmation bias and unhelpful comments in dog groups can further exacerbate a persons belief their dog is biting visitors because of their breed, is showing separation anxiousness because it is their breed trait and are showing serious behavioural issues because "it is what it is".

Sweet, handsome, goofy Bo went home today 🥲 it’s always bittersweet taking a dog home at the end of the board and train program. I’m happy to reunite him with his people, but sad he isn’t with me anymore.

Bo came to work on his typical puppy behavior. He had 0 control over his body or impulses, jumped, barked and whined a lot. Through our training program he was able to learn how to decompress, listen to his people and settle into himself!

Here’s to your continued success Bo, I hope to have you here again!

January is National Train your Dog Month🐶
Please reach out to our clinic or to our Behaviorist Amanda if you need assistance. Training is a crucial aspect of having a dog in your life. And just like children, dogs need socialization and schooling to become well-behaved companions. Every dog—giant breeds and toys, from puppy to seniors has what it takes to learn a trick or two😊

Happy New Year! We are currently working on our pitch, our website, and some other marketing materials. We are looking forward to providing outbound telephonic support to people who are grieving their pet.
We believe this service will empower bereaved pet owners and pet professionals to feel supported and understood.
Shouldn’t each person who loses a pet have support from a licensed mental health professional who understands the impact of losing their bond with their animal?
We are excited to support our community!
Thank you for your patience!
With compassion,
Zachary
