Cora is here for our Advanced Obedience Program! Cora might be a little different looking, but she doesn’t let that stop her! And we’re adjusting our program to fit Cora’s needs and abilities!
This is Blaise! He graduated from our Advanced Obedience Program a couple months ago. His owner sent me these videos yesterday. Before coming to us, Blaise was with a trainer who used an e-collar to correct him into submission rather than teaching him…So when Blaise came to us for training we had to work hard on teaching Blaise what each command meant and then worked on building his confidence and trust when wearing the e-collar again! His owner has been working so hard with him! THIS is why we do what we do!
This boy deserved his own theme song for graduation! This is Rocco and he is a 10 month old Boerboel (South African Mastiff) and the first one I’ve ever met, let alone trained! He was with us for our Advanced Obedience Program and good on his owners for making sure their giant breed was well trained and socialized! Definitely adding Boerboels to my breeds to own list!
“But it’s not funny at the end of the day is it? It’s serious.”
Does your dog act like this when people come to your door?
In videos like this the reactions might come off as funny but when your dog bites someone and you’re charged with a lawsuit, or your dog bites someone and gets euthanized or runs out the door and gets hit by a car, it’s no longer funny.
Don’t let it get to this point. Training your dog to redirect away from the door/doorbell/knock and focus on a different task such as “go to place” or “kennel” can save lives!

Pebbles (12 weeks) on her first downtown exposure session
Pebbles (12 weeks) is our keeper puppy from our Flame x Kota litter. This was her first time going to down town Water Valley. There was lots of car traffic, people out and about and other dogs! That’s a lot for a young puppy to see but she did so well!
We used no pressure on the leash, she’s on a flat buckle collar and we gave lots of praise and kissy noises!
We are working on just getting her comfortable in her surroundings without heavy expectations on obedience. She’s a baby!
Service Dog in training Rollo
Service Dog in training Rollo went on a lunch date with Will Hartman and I!
We sat out on the restaurant patio and watched the big planes fly over to the private airport. It was very loud and Rollo was unsure at first but we worked through it and by the 2nd fly over he was settled!

Darcy learning shed hunt
We have been introducing Darcy to antlers this past week! She LOVES them.
I tossed an antler out and she didn’t see where it landed. This is her first time “hunting” for the antler!
