This one really speaks to us. So many times, our clients come to us saying, “If you can’t fix this, we’re done.” We understand personally, the weight of those words. We do not take them lightly for one second.

But here’s what we believe: God never gives up on us. When we feel “done,” He begins again with grace, patience, and transformation. That reminder is why we choose every single day not to give up on our clients and their dogs.

Because at the end of the day—it’s not just the dogs who need training. It’s the people too. And just like God gives us grace, we are committed to extending that same grace, reformation, and teaching to every family who walks through our doors.

Carrie is out walking with one of our most special Kamp regulars—Sadie Purcell. Sadie has been coming to Kamp since she was just eight weeks old, and she’s grown up with us as part of the Kamp family.

In the video, Carrie talks about how everyone at Kamp absolutely adores Sadie. We always say she feels like one of our own dogs—and that’s probably because she’s been with us so often and for so much of her life. She’s calm, reliable, joyful, and truly Kamp trained through and through.

Sadie is the perfect example of what happens when training, consistency, and community come together—a dog who’s not just well-mannered, but deeply connected to her people and her Kamp family.

Carrie is out with two goldendoodles—one mini and one micro mini—and they’re showing off just how smoothly two dogs can walk together. With the help of one of our favorite tools, the two-dog coupler, they’re moving side-by-side in sync like a little parade.

Carrie explains why we love the coupler: it makes walking two dogs at once so much easier and keeps everyone safe, steady, and together. No tangled leashes, no chaos—just teamwork on four (or in this case, eight!) paws. 🐾🐾

Cody is living the good life. 😆

In this video, our golden doodle Kamp graduate is lounging on the office sofa, and Andrew can’t resist giving him a little extra love. He reaches up to the window ledge above the sofa and scratches Cody’s back, and Cody just melts into it—ears relaxed, eyes closing, completely soaking it all up.

Sometimes training breaks look like this—quiet moments of connection that remind us why we love what we do. 🧡

Five months old, full of wiggles, and already showing off what’s possible. 🌟

This video of Gus, our golden doodle pup in training, is proof that even the young ones can learn to hold a stay. With Sarah guiding him on leash in the beginning stages of his program, you can see that balance of puppy energy and budding focus.

It’s moments like these we love to capture—because it shows families that it’s never too early to start building the foundation for a well-mannered, happy dog.

The second Andrew called my name, my ears perked up and my paws just couldn’t stay still. 🐾 I shot across that farm road as fast as I could, wind in my fur and joy in my heart. No hesitation—just pure happiness to run straight back to him.

Because that’s what Kamp taught me: when my person calls, I come flying in, tail wagging, smile wide, ready for whatever’s next.

Oh boy, today was wild! 🌬️ Andrew and I were walking down the farm road, and let me tell ya—it was SO windy! Every time a leaf blew past, I thought it was a game just for me. 🍂 I leapt, I pounced, I chased, but those silly leaves just kept slipping away!

Andrew laughed and kept me moving, but how could I focus on walking when the entire road was FULL of flying toys?! Being a puppy is the BEST—so many things to chase, so little time.

Andrew has Biggie in a sit stay in the shade at the farm, perched up on the hill while Carrie and Sarah are moving Max through the gate below. For a full minute and 45 seconds, Biggie doesn’t budge. He watches calmly as trainers, dogs, and distractions all move around him. Even when someone in the background calls his name, he doesn’t break focus.

This is what true success looks like—holding a command with duration, distance, and distraction all stacked together. Biggie shows that solid training isn’t about how fast a dog can do something flashy—it’s about whether they can hold steady, no matter what’s happening around them.

From my POV: Training session done, now it’s time for the best part—fresh, cool water. I bury my snout in the bucket and lap it up like it’s the finest spring water. Sarah is laughing while I drink, but honestly, this is serious business. You hear those slurps? That’s what victory sounds like. Some call it ASMR… I call it hydration.

Play yard Thursday means tails wagging, paws flying, and joy filling the air! 🐾 The play yard is where confidence grows, friendships are made, and dogs get to practice everything they’ve been learning while simply having the best time. It’s more than play—it’s balance, fun, and freedom all rolled into one.

Sarah kicked off training with our new recruit, Honey the Golden Retriever, out at the farm. With the long line on, she started introducing Honey to recall—teaching her how to respond to the gentle feel of the training collar and come back to earn her reward.

In the video, you can see it click: Sarah calls, Honey turns immediately, and races back to her, happily snatching the treat from Sarah’s hand. This is step one toward off-leash freedom—the beginning of a foundation where Honey learns that coming back to her handler always pays off.

At the farm, Sarah and Carrie are working with Max on one of the most important skills we teach at Kamp: the sit stay with duration. In the video, they’re reflecting on how the goal isn’t just for Max to stay put, but for him to truly settle in when he knows he’ll be there for a while. This was a big milestone—Max actually laid down and relaxed for the first time during a long sit stay.

They’re also explaining why they’re not staring at him while asking him to hold the position. Eye contact in that moment could act as the next level of pressure and potentially cause him to pop up before the exercise was done. Training is all about levels—building from success to success, instead of rushing ahead. Today, Max proved he’s starting to understand what it means to not just hold a sit stay, but to find peace in it.
