Good afternoon friends! We are in the process of setting up training services in our new area! In the aftermath of covid, we closed down shop to focus on our family. We have since moved into the beautiful mountains of Western North Carolina, and are ramping back up to provide our training services to our local community! Stay tuned for updates and more information!
Much love!

Good afternoon.
As some of you may know, I have been recovering from a November back surgery. Unfortunately, there have been some more issues, and I will not be able to train for the foreseeable future.
I am so thankful for the love and support you all have shown me, my business, and my family over the last 3 years. You and your pups have brightened my life, and I enjoyed every second with them.
To all my former clients and friends; I will always still be available to help with your pups, and room permitting, my home will always be open if your pups need to board while you are out of town.
I wish you all the best in this New Year!
With love,
Erik
Owner, Valhalla K9

Man O War had his his second week lesson today. His dad couldn't believe he could sit down next to Man without getting jumped🤣. We can't wait to see his face after another week of training!

Drinking straight from the doggie bubblah is the best! 🤣

What's cooler than a parrot on your shoulder? A schnauzer on your shoulder! 🤣🤣

Valek keeps impressing is every day!

Mr Hank is a spunky, independent, stubborn pup who has been here for two weeks now. But we're making progress! Even if that means extra training sessions in the muggy Alabama evenings😊. He's come a long way!

Valek learning and having fun at the same time!

I was so excited to hear that Izzy was being dropped off with a papasan chair... until I realized it was Izzy-sized, not people sized🤣

Mr Hank got here a few days ago for our 4 week board and train. After a few days of learning some house manners, he's ready to get his learn on!

Gunner enjoying the cool morning weather before it gets miserably hot out. Not sure who dislikes the heat more; me or him🤣

06/08/2020

Update: we are now fully booked until July 21st!

Just wanted to let all our obedience graduates and their parents know that we are booked out for boarding until July 21st.

If you've got travel plans for the end of July and August, and need boarding, let us know soon! We get boarding requests several times a week throughout the summer, and space goes fast!

Duke and Gator 2

When Duke and Gator got here, they were very dog reactive. Not necessarily aggressive, but when two 135 mastiff puppies start dragging mom and dad towards other dogs, and running the fence listing their minds over the dog on the other side, things get unmanageable, and fast. You can hear a dog barking on the other side of the fence, and Miss Daisy in the small run. Duke and Gator are ignoring the barking, calmly going up to investigate Miss Daisy, and then leaving her alone.
We teach dogs here not to "socialize" with other dogs, but to ignore and be neutral with unfamiliar dogs. It keeps you and your dogs safe and happy!

One of our boarders, Miss Penny, enjoying the nice weather🤣
