We are the definition of small business. Our whole family is involved each and every day. When your dog stays with us we treat them as one of our own. They see the same few faces each day and we are able to form a special bond. Our three kids are very involved, they know the proper way to care of animals and are learning the ins and outs of running a business at 10, 7, and 5 years old. They also know that being able to work hard at something you love is a great gift in life!

This is our client and good friend David. David recently lost his service dog Drago who was his best friend. We have never seen a bond quite like the one they shared. Jay trained Drago years ago and delivered him to David. Since then, David and his family have become like family to us. David bred Drago and this is where he got Keeper. Keeper has been in extensive training with Jay ever since Drago passed. Well last week was his big debut and we could not be happier for David and Keeper!
