Hey everyone!

As most of you have seen that after 10.5 years, Jeanie has decided to move on from the kennel. It was a tough decision for her, but she felt it was the right choice for her family. I know change can be hard, but we’re here to make sure your fur babies continue to get top-notch care.

For those who don’t know me, I’m Jessica Johnson, and I’ve been around the kennel on and off for about 10 years now. Between having kids and dealing with my husband's crazy work schedule, I’ve taken breaks but always come back! I’ve had the chance to work with Georgeanne on gun dog training and helped with obedience training. Later on, I helped Jeanie to take care of boarders and we did obedience training together. We will still be offering training!

I absolutely love my job and this kennel! You might not have seen me much in the past since I’m often in the back with our fantastic team taking care of the dogs or out with Jeanie doing training. But trust me, I know the kennel inside and out, and I promise that my amazing crew and I will continue to give your fur babies the best care! We love our clients and their pets!

Thank you for your trust and support. I look forward to our future together, continuing to make RW Canine Retreat a second home for your beloved pets.

Jessica Johnson

Dear Friends and Clients,

After 10.5 years with RW Canine Retreat, I wanted to let you know that this Friday will be my last day. This has been a very hard decision to make, but after lots of prayers, I believe this is the best decision for my family.

I wanted to take a moment and tell you how much I have treasured loving your fur babies as my own, and for the personal friendships I have made with each and every one of you through the years.

Rest assured and know that your fur babies will continue to be in the best of hands at RW Canine Retreat. Jessica and staff will continue to make sure each and every dog is made to feel special and receive the very best care.

🩷~Jeanie

Brother’s Teddy and Louie are in sync! They graduate next week and we can’t wait for their owner to see how far these 2 have come!

Mylo is off leash! This is a perfect example of going through the program at a dogs pace…. He’s been here for 17 days and he showed us last week he was ready to be off leash. Most dogs aren’t ready to be off leash until week 4 or 5, but if the dog is ready early we will move forward with off leash training.

I never know what I’m going to run into when out on a walk with the dogs…. This morning it was an armadillo and Daene wanted to play. 🤣

Roxie is doing so good with her leash training! When she came she was rolling and pulling and screeching! Now she is walking and sitting with such manners! Proud of this pretty girl!

Look at that distance! Bentley will be graduating intermediate obedience next week, and we are fine tuning all his skills. His long stay is excellent. Good job Ben!

Good job Bentley! This boy has come a long way in 6 weeks! 2 more weeks and he will be back home with his family.

Look at Ruby go! She gets better and better every week with her off leash training! So proud of this girl!

We are having so much fun in this beautiful weather we are having!

It was such a beautiful morning yesterday that we did all the training outside! So proud of this group! They have come a long way!

The puppy quartet is leaving us later in the week. These brothers have been the best little trainees and have learned so much in basic obedience.

Pepperjack is off leash! This girl has 2 more weeks to go in basic obedience and is already doing intermediate skills. Her parents are going to be so proud of her.

Dorris is in her 2nd month of training, which takes everything she has learned OFF LEASH! Look at her go! We still are working on her stay but she heels and comes on command! So proud of this girl!
