Used (normal wear), These are 8 feet long, and I have the attachments for square and round outlets. Bought them for a car without AC a few years back but then very shortly changed vehicles. So these are very much like new. Look up Nogglenation online to learn more. As you can see, I have two units a...

Just an FYI that my ramp in unit 128 is available to anyone who needs it. I took the rail off so it’s not as much of an inconvenience as it was but I don’t really need it and would love to pass it onto someone who does.

Free Gravel -just requires some elbow grease to harvest it. Some of it is piled, and some of it is spread on black plastic. 1-1.5” pieces. Several yards.

If anyone wants a countdown timer for your wrist for your Nose Work trials I would sell mine for a reasonable price since I’m done trialing. Look me up at Joycesdogs and email me from there if your interested.

Mother pigs are the most abused domesticated animals along with hens. They did nothing to us, and yet, the violence they endure from us is beyond words. Plea...

I heard this while listening to a Brene Brown book. I love her thoughts so much.
"Genetics loads the gun, Environment pulls the trigger" It made me think about our pups and the need to have it be a good environment for learning to be 'good dogs'

I sadly have to share som**hing new to be careful about. For a variety of reasons on my last trip to Spokane from the Seattle area I stayed in an Airbnb in Ellensburg. It ended up to be a sort of sleazy oddly run hotel. I could have tolerated that except for the fact that my 12 pound dog Mozart who usually investigates a new room, either ingested or got through his paws what was likely a M**h. exposure. Check the newspaper. Apparently even hotels such as the Radisson in Tacoma have m**h makers renting rooms. When I realized that Mozart’s behavior had become quite bizarre I got him to a vet where he received charcoal and fluids. We spent the night awake, me hanging onto him trying to keep him from running around the room in his frantic level of anxiety.His head kept swinging back-and-forth back-and-forth, a sign of neurological disruption. It took a good 20 hours for him to become somewhat normal again. 24 hours to eat again and his more then the usual neediness continued for a couple of days. His tail is finally up again. He is drinking and peeing more then usual and I will be taking him to a veterinarian for bloodwork. He will never be turned loose in a hotel room again until I have checked it thoroughly with a flashlight. And even then he may wear a muzzle.

Oh Facebook, love and hate you. So I hardly ever get on my own page LOL. But here is the deal. I have relocated to Spokane Washington and I am available for private and small group sessions that you put together and split my fee and also hope to be starting some classes in the new year. Best way to contact me is through my email at joycesdogs at g mail. Com

Some time in the not too distant future I’ll be living in Spokane and available for K9 Nose Work training. I’m a CNWI X 9 years and have many students from the greater PDX area placing, getting pronounced ribbons, etc. I love problem solving. If your interest in quality private training look me up on my (not yet up to date) website and be in touch. I’m also hoping to find a trainer with training space in the area who wants classes. I don’t really want to get my own business going again. Happy to work for someone’s training company and help them add Nose Work to there offerings.
