Quiet times are possible because active times are structured and productive. Enjoy today's toe tapping video!

Finding quiet time is easier when active time is structured and productive.

FUN for advanced teams is back!
For the dog with solid basic foundations and the handler looking to have more fun with their dog strengthening teamwork, I've put the Advanced Games and Fun class back on the schedule starting 10/20 (class size limited)
*AND* With so many asking for evening slots for privates, I've also added Wed at 7:00 pm and Sat at 6:00 pm for privates.
Because Training Should Be Fun!

Bit of AKC history was made at FoxGem this past weekend!
We are happy to say that Marybeth and Lilly the Wonder Mastiff earned their AKC Trick Dog Elite Performer title. Lilly is one of only two Mastiffs to earn this title since AKC’s launch of Trick Dog in May 2017 and this is the highest level of AKC Trick Dog titling offered!
Congratulations to this fabulous team!

Look at who earned her AKC Novice Trick Dog title at FoxGem!
Congratulations on your new title!!

I’m so proud of this team! This LoL moment courtesy of Luna who came to her new owners just a few months ago with fear and self control challenges. The patience of her new family, clear rules and boundaries plus coping skills, all taught via trick training are resulting in a braver and much more polite Miss Luna who earned her first AKC title today, Novice Trick Dog.
Luna is owned and loved by Dave and Kathy Priegel.
Congratulations on your new AKC title!

🐾 GROUP MANNERS CLASS! 🐾
We will focus on teamwork and polite (but happy) good manners while in the presence of other teams that are also having fun.
Show your dog that YOU are fun to be with!
Ideal for teams that have already taken private lessons with us.

This one is not on our website (I might not bother putting it on there) but the usual applies; let me know if you want in, we'll let you know price and dates, you confirm you wish to participate, we invoice you, your payment reserves your spot in class.
As per usual, I can not hold spots for "maybe"; that's not fair for everyone else.

When: Saturdays at 9:30 am starting 7/27/24

(This class is not for dogs who have reactive tendencies towards other dogs. Private lessons to learn coping skills first are appropriate in that case).
