Nahla came to our boarding school program with a lot of fear and anxiety but one of her family’s biggest concerns was her guarding of food, treats and chews from their other dog. To address this, we have taught Nahla to back away from an item and yield space when another dog approaches. This reduces fear in her housemate and creates a more respectful relationship between the two dogs. Now there is peace in the home without the worry of a fight.

We have had a blast training this wild child! Thanks Kraftwerk K9 German Shepherds for breeding such cool pups!

03/13/2022

We discovered this beautiful Red Tailed Hawk down and injured in our pasture this week. During breeding season these guys can get pretty roughed up defending their nests. The wonderful folks with the Boulder County Sheriff’s Office Animal Control came out and were able to safely capture him and take him for treatment to Birds of Prey Foundation. Thanks ladies for all your help with this gorgeous guy!

I’m happy to announce that our disaster assistance fund has been able to help so many families and pets in Louisville. Our fund is currently depleted. If anyone would like to continue to support those affected by the fire, we would appreciate your donations but either way we are so grateful for the support you have all showed to our community. Special thanks to Four Paws & Co. in Longmont and their customers for their incredible generosity!

03/03/2022

If you have been displaced by the Marshall Fire and need anything for your pup from grooming to dog food, please let us know. We still have some donation funds available to help anyone in need. Our fund is not super deep but we want to make sure every dollar gets used, so please reach out if we can help. We are so grateful to still have our business and would like to support the community that has done so much for us over the years.

Good news! We now have power and phone / internet allowing us to partially reopen with limited hours. We will be open tomorrow from 10am - 5pm to allow you to get your dog/cat food. We are hoping to resume grooming on Monday if all goes well. Thank you all for your patience and continuing to support us after 15 years in Louisville!

We are still not open to the public but today we were grateful to share our dog wash with these amazing Search & Recovery teams from Search and Rescue Dogs of the United States assisting in clearing the Marshall Fire zone. They’ve been working tirelessly to ensure no victims of the fire are overlooked. It’s a dirty job that leaves them covered in ash, soot and debris. They must clean up before heading home.
Thank you to these amazing dogs and their volunteer handlers who have spent years training them for just this type of mission. We are all in your debt. #80027

These are the pets still missing as of today Jan 1,2022.

No matter what happened this week, dogs live in the moment. They are enjoying the farm and the fresh snow and a beautiful start to the new year.

12/31/2021

We have had such an amazing outpouring of support for our community. If anyone affected by the Louisville / Superior fire needs help with their pet food, finding safe/temporary housing for their pet, or anything else pet related, please reply in the comments and we will help to connect you with available resources.

We are not yet sure when we will be able to re-open but as soon as we are cleaned up and have power and safe water, we will be back to serve the pets & people of Louisville.

Thank you for your continued support.
