Olive

This mischievous face is Olive.  She is a 10 month old (I think) Golden Retriever.  She is nearing the end of her training with me; completing the Advanced Obedience training.   She has done very well with only a little hiccups in the distractions department.  And maybe a little sass & stubbornness on the side.  She is a sweet lovable girl that has loved the kiddy pool, playing with her friends & going to the barn.  Her best friend is Gwen & one of my foster pups, Maggie.  Read all about Olive's go home lesson next week!

Chewie

This goofball is Chewie.  He is a 6 month old German Short-haired Pointer. He is here for his second round of training to now complete his Advanced Obedience.  He is a strong willed guy who has his own agenda most days but is the absolute sweetest to his core.  He LOVES to play and he gets his name honest.... He puts EVERYTHING in his mouth.  He will be finishing up his program & heading home Saturday!

Gwen

 This tenacious, playful little girl is Gwen!  She is a 5 month old hound mix.  She is here for my Intermediate Obedience program.... although 3 weeks into the 2 week program she is making progress everyday.  She struggles very much on her off leash recall & holding commands around distractions.  She is getting better everyday with her potty training and learning to ring her potty bell to tell me she needs to go out.  Her favorite part of the day is meal time & playtime (in that order).  I hope to see Miss Gwen finishing up her program in the next few days where she'll get to see her sister & family!



June Bug

This is June. She is a 4 month old Goldendoodle pup that is here for my Intermediate Obedience Training.  She was very intimated by all her furry friends when she arrived but a few days into being here she is now a social butterfly.  She is a dramatic girl that thinks her way is the best (and only) way...... but hey, what girl doesn't!  She is almost complete with her Basic Obedience commands like - No jumping on people, no pulling on the leash, sit (stay), down (stay) and we did an introduction to coming when called today when off the leash.  She has a stubborn streak but nothing we can't work through.  Stay tuned for more updates on this sweet girl!

Meet Cesar

This beautiful boy is Cesar. A 1 year old German Shepherd.  He is owned by the Hind family, which also happens to be a military family.  He is with me for 6 months while his family is moving & has transferring going on.  He is having a great time with all his new "cousins" and all his new friends.  Naturally he's learning some manners & how to be an obedient young man while he is with us.  He is a happy go lucky guy that doesn't meet a stranger.  Although he's huge & intimidating to most everyone he meets, he's pretty positive he's a pocket pup and he would smooch you to death.  I'll up date periodically on his progress & catch his playtime pictures on our Facebook & Instagram pages!!
