Our regular Wednesday venue plans changed, so the pack headed to a spot on Swan Lake Ave to romp, and Harry and Kenzie found a swimming hole! Buddy preferred to stay on dry land; Bonner and Gemma looked too pretty for muddy activities 🤪🐶

Our 4th of July “Paw”BQ was the perfect way to start the summer! The day began with a lively pack walk, then the whole gang met up for burgers, doggy ice cream, and goodie bags packed with treats we love (including CBD biscuits and calming pops for those sensitive to fireworks 🎆)!

We may not have been in a patriotic mood, but the dogs reminded us that good food, great company, and silly outfits are reason enough to celebrate. 🇺🇸 🐾 🩷

The Importance of the "Place" Command: How to Raise a Well-Behaved Dog

The "Place" command, whether you call it “go to bed,” “spot,” “park it,” or “go lay down,” is a crucial tool in teaching your dog to go to a designated area, lay down, and calm down. In our home, we use this command daily for a variety of reasons, and it has become an essential part of managing our dog’s behavior, especially around our young daughter.

For instance, pictured below: My 14-week-old Labrador, Alfred, was eagerly testing boundaries, getting his nose into my toddler’s hand, and even putting his paws up on her table during her lunch. While he’s still learning, it was the perfect opportunity to reinforce our rules and boundaries—no begging and no stealing food from people even when easy targets like my toddler are present!

By using the "Place" command, I was able to redirect Alfred’s focus to his bed while she ate. Although he remained interested in her food (understandably so, since he's still learning), he stayed on his designated spot. As he grows more familiar with this command, we’ll gradually increase the duration, the distance away in the bed and add more challenging distractions, reinforcing calm and controlled behavior.

Training sessions like these aren’t always perfect. This session over the weekend required plenty of patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement. However, Alfred eventually relaxed and lay down on his bed, which was a small but significant victory. Training should always be engaging and fun, with lots of treats and praise to motivate your pup.

The key takeaway here is that whatever behavior you want from your adult dog, you need to start reinforcing it when they’re a puppy. Remember, you’re not just raising a puppy—you’re raising a future adult dog. Consistent rules and expectations from day one will help ensure your dog grows into a well-mannered companion.

If you have a puppy or know someone who could benefit from tips like these, follow our journey with Alfred as he learns and grows. Let’s raise great dogs together!

Hello all!

Thank you for your continued patience as we scramble to get back up and running again!! We can continue to offer product pickup but home deliveries are severely limited at this point. If you have WEEKLY bookings scheduled with us, they may be impacted. I will reach out to you personally if you have a booking with us, whether or not it is affected. If you have reservations for overnight pet sitting in the month of April, we see no reason why we won’t be able to complete them but will let you know if anything changes!

A small update: The storm took out not only our power line but also the weatherhead that supplied electricity to our house. THANK YOU to the CMP linemen and Wire It Up Electric for getting our power back on yesterday!!

Our personal car is totaled and our business car is pending assessment. We have a borrowed vehicle but it can only be driven around town. This is critically affecting us at this time and your compassion and understanding is what is keeping us going! Be safe out there, folks!

Warmly,

Bri and David
