Everyone meet Sully! (AKA Sylvester) available!
I’m F1b berndoodle puppy! I am a classic happy-go-lucky puppy. I love making new friends with both people and other puppies. I'm confident and a social butterfly. I love going on walks, playing with toys, and I’’ always up for an adventure. With my flexible temperament I would be a wonderful addition to any family, especially a family with other pets, children, or have an active lifestyle.

Sully's balanced mask and fluffy copper eyebrows are just a few of his sought after features. 💕🐾

Sully's estimated maturity is between 28-35 pounds.

If interested please reach out. ✨💫

What is conditioning relaxation? It is basically teaching a dog how to relax. Whiskey is already a pretty calm dog but I wanted to teach him how to calm down coming from throwing the ball (he loves tennis balls)🎾
So by throwing it let him get amped up then teaching him how to calm down 💕🎾

Stay cool!

As the temperatures rise in Cedar Falls, it is not just us humans who struggle to stay cool in hot weather but our furry friends, too. Our beloved pets rely on us to keep them safe and comfortable during summer. That is why knowing how to beat the heat and ensure your pets remain cool and happy is important.

This month's article will provide some essential tips for keeping your pets cool in hot weather.

We were referred to Miranda Ledbeter of Riverside Canine Training Academy by Kimberlee's Kennels when selecting a Bernedoodle to be trained as my Service Dog to help with my PTSD. The first time I called Miranda she answered and talked to me for 45 minutes! Growing up in Iowa, but having lived in major cities across the country, I did not expect this.

That’s the kind of person Miranda is. She loves training dogs and she loves helping people. She worked with Grant at KK’s to help us select a puppy based on the Volhard Puppy Aptitude Test and brought our girl Wrigley home to her kennel for weeks 8 through 16. She worked with her on basic obedience until we finally got to fly her home and she was fully potty trained (slept through the night!), had commands down from sit, stay, down, heel (and so many more) and was kennel trained. People have remarked on how well behaved she is since the day we got her! It is literally best return on investment I could make.

We watched all of the training videos and read the materials provided in the “puppy package” over and over to make sure we were prepared before (and after!) Wrigley came home. I still have questions from time to time and Miranda is always there for me. Given I am training her to be my Service Dog, I’ve needed training for specific situations I’ve encountered and bought a package of additional remote training sessions over the winter and are bringing Wrigley back to Miranda for “summer camp” to tighten up some Service Dog specifics I need help with.

As long as Miranda trains dogs, I will recommend her to any and everyone I come across. I grew up in Iowa and Miranda represents the best about my home state. We are so grateful that she has a referral relationship with Kimberlee’s because her training has made all the difference in my life with PTSD. I’ve gone from not wanting to really leave the house and venture out, due to my activations, to being able to take my dog to the Getty Museum in LA, the Las Vegas Strip and Chicago Cubs Spring Training because of how Wrigley is able to ground me if I have an activation. It’s truly been life changing having such a well-trained dog by my side.

Papi is almost done with her puppy program. She is a confident, intelligent and out going puppy who loves to give kisses. Her favorite thing is playing fetch and playing chase/tag with the cats. She is a gentle player and loves to be able to share treats, toys basically anything so you could be friends.
