A piece of 1-inch PVC fits perfectly in a medium Kong hole, and makes a great targeting object for dogs that may leash-bite!

Bulleit: That’s close enough.
Me: Yes it is 🙂

It was time to go back to his room, but Bulleit’s body language is telling me to call him to me rather than approach him to leash him up. What do you see?

Maintaining an appropriate distance is crucial to successful reactivity modification exercises! Luckily, we have room to spare at our outdoor reactivity class.

HEY FRIENDS!! After a couple of years in limbo, I am moving forward on the dog house!! This means working with the City of Collinsville to zone the property, securing a loan to outfit the house, and finally opening my doors to YOU AND YOUR DOGS - to swim in the creek, go on Sniffari’s for woodland critters, or play off leash in secure areas of the property. With a maximum capacity of ten dogs, this is a very different concept from “play group” type boarding facilities with dozens of dogs and multiple staff members, and I am excited to offer it to the public!

How can you help? Simple … please send me an email addressed “To Whom it May Concern” and state WHY a boarding facility like this is so necessary to our community! If you can’t wait for us to open to utilize our services, mention that! If your dog cannot go to a traditional facility due to shyness around other dogs or people, say so! If your dog struggles in stimulating settings, explain how a camp day can reset their senses! Send any emails to [email protected], keep fingers and paws crossed, and pray that we make this happen soon!

Thanks in advance 😘 can’t wait to get it done!🐶🐾🏠

Does your dog struggle with visitors? A thorough protocol will onboard your guests as well as train your dog on how to interact. Placing a sign to your front door or entry table can serve as a reminder when you can’t notify guests in advance what their responsibilities are.

Why do dogs make terrible dancers?

Because they have TWO LEFT FEET.
