Roxy enjoyed these cooler temps we’ve had recently and took a break in the shade in our fenced in yard. We think she looks quite regal.

Willow has been working with the trainers on her essential skills in public. Last week she showed off how much she’s learned on a trip to Lowe’s with Riley.

She was BEAMING after people stopped to tell her how pretty and well behaved she is. Great work Willow!

Mowgli was so excited yesterday and couldn’t decide what to do first: pool, sniffs, zooms, treats, training… so he went with all 3!

Please consider donating to help this sweet boy get the care he needs. Every little bit helps! If you’re unable to donate, please share ❤️

🎉Big news! We said yes to helping a puppy who desperately needs a place to recover. Meet Chops💙He'll be arriving next week.

💔 Chops is just 5 months old and was abandoned at an ER with a broken leg. Shortly after, he became sedate/ hyperesthetic/ hypothermic due to ma*****na ingestion. But thanks to some amazing people, he received supportive care and his Salter-Harris fracture was repaired. He’ll be recovering with us while he heals.

We couldn’t walk away knowing he’d otherwise have nowhere to go.

While all our nonprofit paperwork is submitted, most of Chops’ care will still be out of pocket - and we can’t keep doing that without your help.

If you’d like to give Chops the recovery he deserves, please consider donating today. Every bit truly makes a difference.

Outside, inside, or on the town, your pups will always get a session tailored to their needs. Sometimes that means hanging out in our fenced in outdoor exploration yard or heading to a dog friendly local store. Either way we’re here to ensure each pup gets the attention and training support that works best for them!

Leo and Winston had a FABULOUS time exercising one of dogs’ most natural behaviors: digging! Dogs like to dig to create cool spots to rest (like these two did), relieve stress, or to bury their favorite item.

If your dog loves to dig, consider giving them a safe spot to dig at home like a sandbox or designated part of the yard. We have this spot in our fenced in yard that we monitor and keep safe for pups to dig freely in.
