✨ Snuffle Mat Workshop — January 23rd at 5:00 p.m. ✨

Ready for a cozy winter project that your dog will absolutely love? Come hang out with us and make your very own snuffle mat! These enrichment mats are perfect for mental stimulation, slowing down mealtimes, and giving your dog a fun way to “hunt” for treats.

🗓 Date: January 23
⏰ Time: 5:00 p.m.
💲 Cost: $30 — all supplies included

This is a great chance to connect with other dog lovers who enjoy doing fun, hands-on things for (and with!) their dogs. Whether you bring your pup or come solo, you’ll leave with a snuffle mat you made yourself — and probably a few new friends too.

Friday night at The Responsible Dog was sweet in all the best ways 🎄🐾🍪

Our Stays for the Holidays crew worked through real-life distractions while we leaned fully into the holiday spirit with a cookie decorating party. Handlers focused on rock-solid stays… and when a dog decided the distractions were just too tempting? Off to the Gingerbread Penalty Box they went to paint a gingerbread man before jumping back in.

It was fun, festive, and surprisingly effective — proof that training doesn’t have to be boring to be meaningful. Dogs practiced impulse control, handlers practiced patience, and everyone left with decorated cookies, good laughs, and stronger stays.

Swipe through the photos to see the chaos, the cookies, and the progress. This is exactly how we like to train: purposeful, playful, and full of connection.

To our clients, our youth, our 4H families, our supporters, and every dog who walks through our doors: thank you for being part of The Responsible Dog family. You are the reason we do what we do.

We hope your day is filled with warmth, good food, soft snuggles, and moments that make you pause and smile. Give your dogs an extra treat from us — they’ve earned it.

With endless gratitude,
