What’s missing from this picture you ask?? It’s you, we are looking for some volunteers to help with hiding from our search dogs in training. You get to hang out in the wilderness and get some great puppy love when they get to you. If you are interested or would like more information, please let us know. We do our search training almost every Saturday at 1000
The “Next Chapter” visit is rescheduled for Tuesday at 1:00 (4/23). Sorry for any inconvenience.
Remember, this starts this week
We had a great time in Corbin at the Veterans Resource Event sharing our pups, and showing the difference they can make in our lives, now comes nap time after all the fun. Thanks to everyone

Good read, and you all thought I made up stuff that I preach and teach
Dogs that were scent trained were found to be better at impulse control when tasked with treat based challenges, a study has found.
Attn Pack…Please Share. After much deliberation and really paying attention to the weather. We have made the decision to stay closed thru Saturday. We apologize, but, your safety and well being is more important to us then you know. With side roads still snowy/icy, the increased chance of black ice, and the frigid cold (forecasted to be 6 -10 degrees while we would be at building) it is best thing for us to do. I personally have been to all ends of the county today and roads are still tricky in spots, including or own road which still hasn’t been touched. That tied in with the frigid temps, our water is still off so we don’t have a repeat of last year, we have come to this decision.
We hope everyone understands, and apologize in advance for any inconvenience or bad taste this puts in people mouths. We hope to see everyone next week as normal schedule. Please be safe and warm. Michell and Steve
!!!!! Please share….Attn!!! While the roads are getting better, the side road can still be hazardous, with slick roads and brutal cold expected tomorrow, and more snow Thursday. We are going to be closed this Wednesday (1/17) and Thursday (1/18). We will wait and see how the weekend is looking for Saturday. I hope everyone understands and stays safe and warm. These type of weather days are hard on all of us, if you have an emergent need please do not hesitate to reach out.
As this year comes to end We just want to give a huge shout out to all of our Pack Members. We had another great year and are praying for an even better year in 2024. We personally want to thank everyone for their support, be it financially with sponsorships or attending classes, by helping with the care and maintenance of our training facility, by spreading the word and encouraging others to see what we are all about, by promoting our programs and making visits sharing the joy of having a dog around, and even those who brave the elements and hide for our search dogs. We couldn’t do this without everyone’s help. We are still able to do our community outreach activities and help those in need, because of the continued support and belief in our mission. Let’s hit 2024 rolling and keep the paws moving. We look forward to challenging our advanced dogs with some new certifications coming available soon, building and strengthening relationships with some new partners, and most importantly being their for each other, because, at the end of the day we are “ONE PACK WITH MANY PAWS”
Attn Pack!!!! Just in time for Christmas the new order of shirts and sweatshirts has arrived. We will be here Thursday and Saturday as normal, come and get them while we have them. Shirts = $20, Sweatshirts = $35
Thank you to all that helped with the Veterans Resource Event, we were able to share our Therapy Dogs and Service Dogs to our community. It was great opportunity to explain differences and hopefully we showed at least 1 person, that there is hope
Reminder to all. We will be closed today, while we are attending the Veterans Resource Event.
Hey Pack, you have asked and we listened. they are officially in the works. Within a couple weeks we will have a new order of our Blue K911 Logo shirts, Gray hoodies with K911 logo, and also will have a blast from the past with gray shirts and hoodies with our working dog logo
Attn Pack, we will be at this event to help support our veteran community. Please pass the word and, courtesy of our friends at Community Connect Village - Bluegrass Veterans Ranch, anyone who brings a couple cans or bag of dog food, will have a chance at this custom hand crafted teddy bear
Just a quick shout out to our pack and extended pack for the outpouring of support for our Blessing tree. It’s going great, and, just in case you’re wondering, we do still have tags left…lol
