Meet baby husky Sasha whom I boarded and trained.

Sasha came to straight from the breeder at 10 weeks of age.

She spent five weeks with me in training and I delivered her last Friday.

Owner is very pleased and sent the beautiful texts you see on second photo.

You want to have a young dog but don’t want to deal with the puppyhood? Talk to me… I will board and train your pup… any breed. If you are local, I will also meet you at the breeder and select the best pup from the litter if you so wish.

Siena, a Service dog, anchoring the child to prevent eloping.

I am so proud of Siena. The child is pulling really hard and Siena does not break the position.

Meet Panda!👇

✔️ Provide anchor: This offers a safe place to go for comfort and solace during or after becoming overwhelmed.
✔️ Perform pressure therapy: Used to help calm children who are overwhelmed by symptoms such as fear, stress, or anxiety.
✔️ Interrupt repetitive movements: If a child is participating in a repetitive behavior, these dog can be taught to touch the child, creating a distraction which may stop the behavior.

Contrary to popular assumption, a service dog and an emotional support dog are not the same thing. They serve unique purposes!

🐶 Service Dogs: Individually trained to do work or perform tasks for the benefit of an individual with a physical, sensory, psychiatric, intellectual or other mental disability. These dogs are required to perform a minimum of 3 tasks that are directly related to the individual's disability. By law, the service dog is allowed anywhere a person is allowed.

🐶 Emotional Support Dogs: The primary role of these dogs is to provide emotional comfort and companionship to a person with a mental, emotional, or psychological disability. They are not required to perform any certain tasks like service dogs are. These dogs, by law, are allowed in "no pets policy" housing and pet-friendly hotels, but may not allowed in restaurants, airplanes or other places dogs are banned.

Cat Aston chilling next to her buddy Victor.

Victor is a Golden Shepherd Dog trained as Syngap Service Dog.

Victor will start his service next Wednesday in Houston, TX.

Aston is totally in love with him. When Victor is not inside the house, Aston makes a lot of noise until I bring Victor back in so she can lay down next to him.

Have a beautiful Monday evening!
