ICICLE CHALLENGE! 🧊 🐕
It’s REALLY COLD here in Wisconsin. -25 degree windchills.
Let’s play “who can hold an icicle and not break it?”
Drop your pictures of your dog’s HOLD.
(I brought an icicle inside for this, as my hands were too cold to take out of my mittens to take a pic - yikes!)

“Ma’am, is that a cheese in your hand? I happen to adore cheese.”Well, we adore you, Lucy Lou!

Our first ‘Manners For Multiples’ class was today and they did SUPER!
This one hour class class focused on being able to train one dog while the other hangs out and does nothing.
Look for another session of this One Hit Wonder class soon this early spring!

Tomorrow at Amery Library, join Heather and Ridge and a look at the ethology of breeds and the WHY to many behaviors they exhibit.

This Friday at 4 pm, learn about dog breeds and their behaviors with Heather Mishefske! She'll share why dogs may exhibit breed-specific behaviors and how dog owners can meet their needs. She's also bringing one of her own dogs for you to meet!

Yes, we are professionals, and yes, our dogs beg. And nope, we do not care to alter it at times, as it’s kind of hilarious and makes for cute videos.
