Placement Announcement
Red male has officially left the building! ❤️
[Official name pending]

This placement is an especially exciting one. It’s always a relief sending one of our pups off with good people — and even more special knowing he already has some great plans ahead. There’s something really rewarding about watching these pieces fall into place and seeing each puppy find the life that fits them best.

He’ll be living the dream as a farm and travel companion, and we can’t wait to follow along as he grows into everything he’s meant to be.

Rosie Does It Again! 🐾
We had our first NASDA trial in a while this past weekend, and Rosie didn’t miss a beat — earning five more Double Q’s toward her Trailing & Locating Master Champion title!

She continues to bring focus, precision, and heart every time she steps on the field. We’re so proud of this girl and can’t wait to see her finish out this title soon! 💪🔥

Orange Collar has left the building!
Formerly known as Cheesecake, now going by Leroy, this handsome boy is heading off to Wisconsin!

He’ll be putting his instincts to work and doing what comes naturally — herding. We can’t wait to see him grow into his new life and job. He will also be a best friend to his new family and friends.

Safe travels, Leroy, and welcome to your next adventure! 🧡🐄✨

Pink Collar Female Has Left the Building
✨ Wildcard’s Wonderland ✨

Our pink-collar girl, formerly known as Velvet and now officially Allis, has begun her next adventure!

Allis is heading to Ohio, where she’ll be living with her Aunt Poppy (a Chubs sister) — and together they’ll be diving headfirst into flyball, agility, dock diving, and just about everything else that comes their way.

This bright, driven little girl has been such a joy to raise, and we can’t wait to see her shine alongside her new family. From the whelping box to the Wonderland — the adventure continues! 💕

Purple Collar Female – “Izzy” (formally known as Spice) - has left the building!
(Registered name pending)

Our purple collar female has officially made her way home with her human! From the very beginning, Izzy has lived up to her name — bright, lively, and full of curiosity about the world around her.

She’ll be living the good life in Kentucky, where farm days, fresh air, and plenty of adventure await. We’re especially happy about this one because we’ll still get to see her often and watch her grow into the beautiful, confident girl we know she’ll be.

Congratulations to Izzy and her new family — welcome to the Wildcard family! 💜

Some things are just meant to be — and for this little man, everything has fallen perfectly into place. He’ll be heading to Wisconsin, where he’ll not only have a new best friend but will also get the chance to learn the art of herding and live the working life he was born for.

White Collar Female – Angel
✨ “Wildcard’s [Registered Name Pending]” ✨

Our sweet Angel has officially left the building!
This little girl is heading all the way to Wisconsin, where she’ll be joining her new family — complete with a big sister to show her the ropes. Together they’ll be diving into all kinds of fun adventures: nosework, agility, dock diving, tricks, barn hunt, and maybe even herding one day!

She’s a bright, drivey little pup who’s sure to make a mark wherever she goes. We can’t wait to cheer on Angel and her humans as they take on the world, one sport at a time.

Safe travels, little one — your Wildcard family will be rooting for you always.

Carrot — now officially known as Disco — has left the building! 💙✨

This boy has been such a joy to raise. From the start, Disco showed himself to be that “down-the-middle” type of dog we all love — balanced, confident, and thoughtful in how he approaches the world. He’s playful and engaging without being over the top, driven but not frantic, and social while still able to work independently.

Disco will be staying right here in Tennessee with his new family, where he’ll get to put all that balance to good use! He’ll be learning disc, tricks, agility, and plenty more — all while helping hold things down at home and adding his own special spark to daily life.

Watching him grow and develop has been a pleasure, and I’m so excited to see the partnership that forms between him and his humans. Here’s to many adventures ahead for this little man!

Go make us proud, Disco. 💫

Male Seeking Placement – Red Collar ❤️

Mr. Independent is still on the lookout for his perfect humans. This pup is expected to lean toward the more independent side and will likely thrive in a home experienced with handling and training dogs who don’t necessarily live to please.

He marches to the beat of his own drum, but don’t let that fool you — he still loves a good play session with the flirt pole and has plenty of personality to go around.

Red collar boy also shows real sport potential, but he will need a handler who can raise him with intention, structure, and clarity to bring out the best in him.
