So exciting to say phase 1 remodeling is done. Thank you everyone for tolerating the inconvenience. We now have more rooms. The walls that are not vinyl are lines with a acrylic wall shield. Our floors are sealed with a pet safe concrete sealer. The pictures don't do it justice as you can not see just how big the rooms are. But here is a quick sneak peak. No particular order

08/13/2024

Our website is undergoing a server migration, and some features may be temporarily unavailable. For any questions or appointment requests, please reach out to us. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Dear RCBP family,

I just wanted to inform you all about a recent change in our services. Ashley Conner will no longer be providing services for River City Bark and Park. She is no longer affiliated with River City Bark and Park or any associated services. We understand that there maybe concerns requiring packages purchased while training with her,and I want to assure you that we will honor these agreements without any issues.

For clients who had not scheduled or need to reschedule training sessions we have availability starting Aug 20 for private sessions. The clients that have already scheduled or rescheduled, you are fine with dates and times discussed. Group sessions will commence in September, with AKC puppy being our first session. We do have a list started. If you would like to enroll in the S.T.A.R puppy training, please reach out to us through email, Facebook message or phone call as soon as possible as we have limited slots available.
Please note that the S.T.A.R puppy program is open to all dogs 1 yr old and under. All vaccines have to be current including rabies.

In addition to training services, we also offer doggie daycare and boarding for your convenience.

Thank you for your attention to this matter. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us.

We also have more exciting news coming up, so keep checking back! If you have not done so already, please like our page, follow and share!

Sincerely,
Heather

Happy July 4th

Fly ball .....finally got a good video.

We get asked and calls all the time about training. What kind do you do? Well River City Bark and Park does all kinds of training. We have 3 trainers. Ashley and Heather do most of the training. They will customize the training to you and your dog. No dog trains the same way. They will ask questions. To gain an insight on the dog and you. They will have you fill out paperwork (it seems like a lot of it) some of it you as the owner might think it is a silly question but as a trainer it is something they need to know. Ashley and Heather can train basic obedience (sit, stay, wait, leash etc) to behavior issues. Which can be aggression, reactivity etc. They are both AKC certified evaluators. Both have trained service dogs. Lisa is RCBP fly ball trainer. She has worked for many years to get where she is at now. She started with great Danes and flyball. She is awesome to watch. If you need or just want information please reach out. RCBP does private, group, offsite and board and trains. 252 621 1446 Email: [email protected] Ashley cell number is 252 698 6767 (please no calls or texts after 7pm) Give her 24 hrs to get back to you. Here is Pax learning tasks for his owner so he can be a service dog. He is only 8 months old and is learning so fast. He was also adopted from River City Animal Rescue,inc.

Leo is an older dog but his owner wanted to do some training. Agility basic is a great enrichment training as well as just fun all the around.

River City Bark & Park AKC S.T.A.R puppy class.

Have a few cool training videos to share. We also have a few new things in the works so stay tuned. So exciting...... This is our S.T.A.R puppy class. This group is a little bit older pups but still fun.

Did you know........RCBP has two in house trainers. Both trainer are AKC certified evaluators. Ashley is a vet assistant Heather will be testing for CCPTA next Sept. This takes 300 plus training hrs, a vet recommendation, and is a certification nationwide. This certification also has to do so many continued education hrs a year. We have a new trainer Lisa for flyball. She has many many wins and tournaments under her belt. She travels nationwide for the sport. All our staff goes through intense online and in house training. All have to have so many continued education hrs a year. All our staff is pet first aid and cpr trained. RCBP has a curriculum we follow in daycare and many safety protocols in place. We teach self settle in rooms at our quiet time. We teach wait at the gate and give room. We teach sit and loose leash walking. We even have dog music in every room and area for the dogs along with dog TV in the daycare rooms. We do not discriminate on dog breeds or if neutered or spayed. All dogs welcome as long as dog friendly and people friendly for daycare. Boarding we can accommodate the not dog friendly dogs. We take everything we do seriously from doggie daycare, training boarding etc. Below is a clip from a training session.

Just a quick update on some training sessions and boarding. Our 2nd S.T.A.R puppy class just graduated. A great class. Our 3rd S.TA.R puppy class starting April 6 this is full. We will offer more just looking at dates now. Our CGC (good canine citizen) class starts April 6th. This class is 250.00 for 6 sessions. Must attend all sessions to take test. The CGC test is included with this class. We will drill the 10 tasks to pass this test. Dogs must be current on vaccines, know and perfected sit, stay, loose leash walking. There is off site classes with these sessions. We have 3 spots open. This class will only have 8 spots available. There are still private sessions available but our sat time frames book fast. We have very limited space for Easter boarding. If you need boarding for Easter please reach out now. We have also people booking boarding for July 4 th, Christmas and even Thanksgiving. Here is a great short training video. This is a new pup in training with RCBP. This was her first session and boy she nailed all that was asked of her.

Another great training week, our first S.T.A.R puppy class graduated. We have new board in trains coming in and many groups sessions are filling up. We do have some private sessions available. Please feel to call 252-621-1446. Email, text, Facebook. We even have instagram. Here is another great short training video.

Just a small clip of some of our training dogs. Enjoy

Muzzle training. What is is? Basically it is a type of training for your dog. This type of training takes time, you must work with your dog to wear a muzzle. Just because a dog wears a muzzle does not mean the dog is bad, mean, aggressive etc. All dogs should be muzzle trained. If your dog gets hurt (something like hit by car for example) and you need to take him or her to vet, they may be in so much pain they may redirect and bite you. This is just one scenario. In this short training video, you will see how we start muzzle training. This dog is in private session and has never been muzzled, never seen a muzzle, and look at how this is a positive session. This dog wants to put on the muzzle. This how far we went. We never fastened, or made him wear it. We ended that part if the session like we do every session on a positive note. Again this is done in a slow positive way. All the muzzles we use and suggest, the dogs can pant, drink water, take treats etc. If a dog is to wear a muzzle please seek advice from a professional if you have never put a muzzle on your dog. Muzzles need to be measured for each dog. There are so many types of muzzle. Some are for the working dogs,k9 police, some are for just using at vets, etc. These are training tools and should never be left on a dog for extended period of time. Again please do not just go buy a muzzle and stick on your dog. We would be glad to help you start muzzle training or any type of training you might need. Please reach out as we are booking private sessions but they fill up fast.

Josie working on some basic agility training.

A quick training video. This is a boerboel or south African mastiff. She is working on basic obedience on and off lead. She is also working on some aggressive issues.

Some start off leash work. She is just starting her training with us. We use a lot of different obstacles in training wether it is basic or advance. We want the dog to be use to everything and have fun. Some days we may drill drill drill others we will set up a simple course and have fun. Either way handler and dog are still learning.
