💚 Please help us welcome Dodge to the household for vacation! He is quite the anxious boy and has been dismissed from some boarding facilities due to his anxiety but is learning to settle well in a home setting. Welcome to the K9s Dodge! We've got you bud. 🩵

💜 In home boarding can be life changing for some pets who are overly anxious in traditional boarding facilities. We specialize in Geriatric Pups and Pups with special needs such as High Anxiety, Diabetes, Seizures, etc. 🩷

Mori got to have a BLAST the past 2 weekends. 😍 Thanks to Liz Crawley and C4 Pet Photography for these amazing photos of my crazy girl. She even got 2 personal best times of 6.483 and 6.489 seconds! 😍 (PB run was in her muzzle!)

Well, outside of our previous post about being a bit of a p**py weekend (literally, not figuratively. The weekend was actually quite amazing!) We have some great memories! Our training has taken a new turn and we are focusing Mar-Vell on NASDA this year because, as these photos show, she absolutely LOVES this game.

On Friday, we started out in Trailing and Locating Level 1 and qualified in all 3 runs, earning her Level 1 Title and moving us up to Level 2! We moved onto Urban Locating Level 2 and qualified all 3 runs there as well. Saturday we did Level 2 on both TL and UL, earning 6 qualifying scores, and earning High in Trial for 2 of the Trailing and Locating trials, including the p**py one!)

Sunday, she was a little tired by her last run of TL (we attempted off-leash hunting for the first time and she got the zoomies, wearing herself out before finding that last rat), so we qualified 2 of those 3 runs, but she had her head back on for UL and qualified 3 more times!

In total, she qualified 17 out of 18 runs this weekend! I could not be more proud of my girl for really using her brain and doing the thing this weekend. She is my perpetual puppy, and I always tease her about having a permanent "puppy brain". Our judge said it best this weekend "She is so entertaining to watch work, and that's not a bad thing." because of all the bouncing around she does.

I cannot wait until our next NASDA adventure! TL & UL 3, we're on the way!

Welp, today I was truly a 's**tdog handler' at our NASDA trial in Aiken! These images were shot by our friend Cate Jay at the trial in our 3rd run of Trailing and Locating (Level 2). When you are doing TL, your dog is allowed to potty on the course and continue hunting SO LONG AS you clean it up immediately. If you do not have a p**p bag to clean it up, you get a non-qualifying score... This photo series shows another way that you can by-pass this rule.... Pick it up with your bare hands 🤷‍♀️

Yup. This girl picked up this dogs s**t with bare hands, brought it to outside the course (removing it from the search area) and continued the search. Mar-Vell not only qualified by alerting to the rat but ALSO got HIGH IN CLASS, meaning she found it the fastest out of all the dogs in her class.

Of all the things I've done this weekend and I'm sure will still do tomorrow.... picking up s**t with my barehands was NOT on my bingo card... 😂

🩷Mar-Vell🩷 had a GREAT first ever NASDA trial with Atlas Sport Dogs. While we bombed the Trailing and Locating portion, earning 1 out of 3 Q's with a time of 1:25ish, she bounced back magnificently in the Urban Locating trials earning 3 Q's! She earned 1 High in Trial on her last run of the day with a 22 Second run, she was 2nd in another run and she earned her UL-I Title with a total of 101 points! 😍 She is officially

While my girl did not have any qualifying runs back at Regionals in March, she still managed to be in the TOP 25 poodles of 2024! 🩷 #22 in Novice, and #14 in Open! Looove my crazy girl. Tomorrow should be interesting in NASDA.

AMAZING Photos from Beau & Arrow Images & C4 Pet Photography! Thank you SO much ladies for all your hard work, and getting these photos up so quickly. I HAD to buy 10 from each of you LOL, so this is only a small portion!

⚠️ Caution to anyone sensitive to dog falls, the last 4 images could be hard to look at. Just remember that she is perfectly OK and was revving for more!

To say this weekend was a whirlwind would be an understatement! This is long, but all my thanks is in here 🧡🧡

Both Friday and Saturday Mar-Vell tagged along to join us on the Fit Dog mile walk. We all walked an entire mile both days, earning Mar-Vell her FITS title!!

On Friday, Mori ran 6.701 seconds(TWICE!) Which breaks down to 30.5mph, earning 61 points and earning her BCAT by .7 points (150.7), and she then went on to run another 600 yards on the CAT field for the first time ever and had a BLAST! (Thank you Lure op Chris!). Earning that BCAT also earned her the FITS title! Saturday we did FastCAT first and she got a 6.6 and a 6.7, and then ran another 600 yards on CAT. Sunday just Mori tagged along(Mar-Vell said the car was boring). She was a bit chilled in the morning and not quite awake yet (sleepy girl in her crate) and was slow getting started on her first FastCAT run getting a 6.9, and then warmed up a bit to get another 6.7, ending the run with a FLOURISH by doing a full summersault at the end of the line 😂. Lastly, after a good rub down and a break we ran over to the CAT field while there was a break and the wonderful Laurie judged us for our CA run on that field!

There were a LOT of up and downs at this event with the weather being cold, miscommunication, and a lot of AWESOME new people learning how to help. I loved seeing everyone, and I loved hearing all the compliments that competitors were saying both directly to the GCOC volunteers and the TTF members. We know it can get frustrating waiting in the cold weather, but we appreciate every single one of our helpers (both those who we enlisted prior AND those who stepped up just because they were enjoying themselves). I have run with a few others, but for the last 2 years I have exclusively run TTF events because of the amazing community. 🥳 Y'all are amazing.

Thank you Chris, Laurie, Hannah, Lindsay (and the fam!), Patti, Christi, Terry, Amanda, Chris P., Brandy, Wanda, and all of our release help AND everyone who's names I didn't know behind the scenes. You've all been amazing this weekend helping out and we truly couldn't do this without you! 🧡

Our 2025 Goals. Our true 2025 goal is to ensure everyone gets one-on-one training and fun. Getting ANY of these, or all of these titles is truly just a bonus when it comes to living with these dogs.

Title explanations are on each photo! Lots of doubles for these kids to see who likes what more.
