We had an amazing outing to the airport to socialize and practice skills🐶

Frida worked on watching the world and taking in a variety of new sights and sounds! She did awesome and I look forward to visiting again with her!

Delilah’s training has progressed beautifully and she took all the chaos in stride! We continue her public access skills for Service Work and transferring more tasking to higher distraction environments!

So proud of both of these pups❤️

I’d hoped it would be a while before I’d have to make another one of these posts. This year has been so incredibly hard- while having pets is one of the greatest joys, it also brings the biggest heartbreak.

We came home to find Emmett in distress and he started seizing so we rushed to the emergency vet. Sadly, the seizures were coming faster and lasting longer and he was exhausted. We made the decision to let him go and the amazing staff helped us keep him as comfortable as possible through that process.

Emmett honey, I know you fought so hard. And I’m so sorry.

He was our biggest cuddle bug and this was his favorite spot to sleep. I’d go in to wake them up and he’d pop his nose out to boop my nose. He was the ferret I’d bring out to socialize with the puppies, he was just so gentle and sweet. It just won’t be the same without you.

Rest easy, the rest of the crew is waiting for you💙

Brag moment for Goose❤️

Last weekend Goose had the opportunity to do some pretty cool stuff at Kalamazoo Cluster! He got to try CAT for the first time, he had a lot of fun and after 3 passing runs over the weekend, he earned his first CAT title❤️ He tried dock diving for the first time. While he LOVES to swim, he needs more practice and encouragement before he will be jumping off the dock! He also added some points in FASTCAT and was thrilled he could catch the lure! Rooster also gave it a go but needed a human to run with him as moral support.

Saturday we went to the CPE Scentwork trial and Goose did amazing! He had 7 qualifying runs out of 8 and ended the weekend with some ribbons! We are getting closer to level 3!

I’m so proud of this try it all boy and I love finding things he really enjoys💙

We wrapped up Team Pretzel’s package today. This team has had so much growth and success, we are so proud of them🥹

Pretzel was attacked by an off leash dog and he became very weary of encounters with dogs. Fast forward to now, he has gained confidence around dogs along with some other great skills like loose leash walking, lie down, and wait at the door. Way to go Team Pretzel- keep up the great work💗
