We’re back in the vet testing for another growth that could be cancerous. Luckily the last 3 she’d had were NOT🙏🏽❤️

Mr Bleu has come all the way from California to attend our 2 week board and train! We are so excited to start bonding & working together; he’s extremely sweet and intelligent!

Today is world mental health day; here’s a friendly reminder from Riley & I to check in your friends & family, even people you’ve lost touch with. And to always make sure you’re putting your own mental health as a priority💕

We are sooo stoked that Stitch has finally found his home!!! We’ve had him for MONTHS; working, bonding, waiting, & getting to learn each other. We will absolutely miss him but we’re so happy he’s finally off to bigger and better things and can call his family his home🧡

Mr Marvel, you have been such a pleasure to work with. From training and bonding with you at 4 months old to coming back again for executive months for service dog training, you have finally gone home (all the way back to Maine)! We are going to miss your fun, goofy, hard working, loving, & sweet self. Thank you for allowing us to bond and work with Marvel from the get go!

Everyone meet Radar! He’s in our rehome program & will be looking for his furever home in a few months- we got lots of training to accomplish!

Here’s a gentle reminder to check in on your friends & loved ones, no matter how busy or consumed you are.
I just lost a good friend to taking his own life (one of many) & I want everyone to remember 2 things;
1. “The epic story of tomorrow, can’t be written if it ends today.” Please stay; I know it’s hard.
& 2. You are not alone, no matter what you’re going through or how you’re feeling, you are not alone & you are loved.

I’ve felt the same way before in my life, so i understand the hardship of living. But you’re strong, brave, & important.

I make this post every year🩵
2 years ago today, I received Dexter on my door step. We’ve accomplished our PSA PDC driving from CO➡️CA, bonded harder than I ever imaged, saved me multiple times in real life situations, & has shown me nothing but trust & love. Dexter was a true gift coming into my life & I couldn’t be more grateful.
Happy Gotcha Day dude💚

This is a special post

Miss Nala was with us for 8 weeks all the way from Rhode Island & she just left today🩷😭 she was here for severe confidence building as she was a Chinese meat market dog; scared of EVERYTHING & hated men.

We were able to successfully help her overcome her fears, see good in the world, gain the confidence she needed, & become actually happy and content💯🩵

Unfortunately poor Stitch is still homeless & the saddest part is, we get tons of inquiries on available dogs but as soon as I send his info they either go cold turkey or say no. He’s got great training & even off leash skills, plus he’s great with other dogs if the play is healthy and appropriate. Let’s get him out there so hopefully he can find his home!🙏🏽💙😭

Meet Karma (charcoal), Wally (chocolate), & the 2 siblings Callie & Hoosier! All 4 came from the same household and we even had Wally in a previous board and train a few years ago!

It’s always super helpful for the owner of a multi dog household to bring them at the same time so they can learn together🧡

Mr Marvel was originally trained by us as a tiny puppy for service dog work & then came back again to finish it out all the way from Maine! He’s been with us for a long time now & will be heading home next month. He’s an awesome dog with amazing work drive & really nice genetics to be able to be a service dog; we’re definitely going to miss him😭💙

A big of my apprenticeship requires the apprentice to get a dog to add to their family as a “project dog.” So meet Samantha the German shepherd! She came from a breeding kennel & ended up needing her stomach stapled. She’s 6 years old and only know how to be in a kennel or a dog run. So let’s get to work!

08/24/2024

After a long journey we’re finally home. Happy to be back & to get back into the Top Paw K9 Academy groove!🩷🩵

Syn & I are here to make a post! A post about growth, & with growth, comes change. That being said, we have officially changed our business hours from 8am-4pm & being closed to the public on weekends; to 7am-6pm and open Saturday & Sunday! But with scheduled appointments of course as we are always busy with our board & trains.

This means we are able to accommodate more dogs & owners whose hours don’t match up with ours!

Over due post but let’s welcome John to our apprentice program at Top Paw K9 Academy! He’ll be working with us hands on for 5 months after completing 2 months of books, quizzes, & homework; helping him have a clear understanding of dogs & how to work the dog in front of you! John Munsterman

If it weren’t for Riley, I wouldn’t have made it this far❤️ we used to be located in Greeley but recently moved to Denver.

Thank you Riley for always being my rock, world, whole heart, & to always keep me going.

Thank you to my Top Paw K9 team for their unwavering support & help. Koz Dietrich Tatiana Davis-Dunlap

& Thank you to everyone for your support in every way shown!🙏🏽💯 #2024

Mr Romeo from our Puppy Party 101 Group Class is here for our Pawfect Puppy board & train! He’ll learn leash skills, understanding and responding appropriately to dog body language when they’re giving cues they do not want to play or engage (he normally disregards it & continues to bombard dogs who don’t want him in their space), confidence building & recall!💚

✨Once in a life time opportunity✨
Meet Big Blue!💙He is looking for his furever home through us at Top Paw K9 Academy. He’s got nothing but love to give & is amazing with other dogs, kids, people, cats, etc. He comes from a breeding kennel that is now down sizing & is looking for a home as nothing but a companion & to be a permanent part of the family.
We’ve had tons of dogs come through our rehome program & this is the one dog I would keep myself if I didn’t have 5 already.💙

Please share🙏🏽

Please DM us for all of his information & back story.
