We had four teams visit OTC to provide stress relief to students during midterms. Both students and pups felt lots of love today!
Short video to share w you how relaxed the kids are during PALS reading times. Jasper is getting lots of love and hearing a great story too! 📚🐾📚
We had an excellent time at Bass Pro.
Experienced teams, puppies just learning the ropes, and teams thinking about joining, all together for a fantastically fun night of training.
We worked on leave it, meet and greets and more.
Join us next time at Orschelns in Republic, February 16th at 6:30pm.
