We love celebrating doggie friendships! 🧡🐶⁣🫶The bonds that pups form at daycare are not only adorable but also beneficial for their wellbeing. When dogs play with their Best Furry Friends Forever (BFFFs), they enhance their communication skills, boost their confidence around others, and tap into their natural pack instinct.

Together, furry friends can be a powerful duo. 🐾 Book your pup’s daycare visit today!

📢SOME MORE GREAT NEWS📢
After professional training with Colleen, Ortiz has made remarkable progress in his journey to becoming a service dog. Ortiz can now perform an impressive array of tasks, including opening doors, picking up items from the floor, providing anxiety relief, illuminating rooms, and even helping to interrupt nightmares. His training has been an incredible success, and he is now ready to embark on the next chapter of his life—Team Training to meet his forever partner.

We welcomed United States Army veteran Christie from Oklahoma to the South-Central Regional Training Center in Irving, Texas for an intensive two-week Team Training program. Team Training is a lot like college with a mix of lecture and hands-on training, learning how to work with a service dog so the dog can increase independence.

From the very first day of Team Training, Christie had the opportunity to interact with several service dogs, each offering their unique qualities and abilities. By the second day, one extraordinary dog had already captured her heart— Ortiz! Over the following week and a half, Christie and Ortiz formed a deep bond, participating in guided field trips to public places, where they learned to function as a seamless team in real-world scenarios. Christie acquired invaluable skills, from grooming and maintaining Ortiz to playing and snuggling, reinforcing their strong connection.

After two weeks of intensive training, Christie and Ortiz had become an inseparable, dynamic duo. The final day of Team Training involves both a written and practical examination. This ensures that Christie and Ortiz are fully equipped to face the world together, ready to conquer any challenges that may arise. Additionally, Christie has gained the knowledge to continue training Ortiz according to her specific needs at home.

We eagerly anticipate the upcoming celebration of Christie and Ortiz’s graduation, a momentous occasion that marks the beginning of their incredible journey together.

Once again, THANK YOU to everyone that has participated in our events that support the Dogtopia Foundation! Every cent goes to organizations like Canine Companions and K9s for Warriors to help sponsor dogs like Ortiz and Aggie for Veterans.

We are THRILLED to announce that Aggie has been paired with her Veteran and has graduated! Aggie’s Warrior’s name is Nicholas, and he is a Navy Veteran from Florida. These two were made for each other and have been doing amazing so far with their training!

Thank you to everyone that has participated in events like our Spring Time Craft and the Lick Art for the Dogtopia Foundation. Without your generous donations, we would not be able to give Warriors like Nicholas this "new leash on life!" On behalf of all the men, women, and furry battle buddies that we serve, thank you so much for supporting our mission! Cheers to saving lives at both ends of the leash!
