Here you will view each current guest and learn what they are up to as well as viewing pics and videos of the current month's dog games. We also post pictures and videos on our Facebook page.
Enjoy!
Note: We will only be posting blogs and pics of dogs we're training, or are otherwise involved in activities such as swimming, hiking or showing. If you want pics of dogs who are here for only boarding there will be an additional fee of $15 per picture session as it's time consuming. Note: Often, however, our play yard videos (on Facebook) will feature all of our K9 guests; even those who are not scheduled for additional activities.

Jasper
Jasper is a medium sized black mix. He is super high energy and well-muscled. Some of those muscles are jaw muscles that are very active. He barks a LOT. He also attempts to get through gates and doors. One of the first behaviors he's learning is to perform stays at apertures. He has a pretty good understanding of the basics - heel, sit, down, come and stay. I'm going to work on improving these a bit more before moving forward to much.
Zorro and Roux
My Big Buds arrived yesterday. They're scheduled for hikes every other day and Zorro gets one training session. They are behaving well (as they always do) and eating well (as they always do).
Cooper
Cooper is playing well with Zorro and Roux. He's also enjoying his daily hikes.
Dexter
Dexter is back for the weekend. He's always a joy and has super social skills with his playmates.
Effie
Effie is a senior girl. While she's good with the other dogs, she prefers to not spend much time with them. She's eating well and being a good girl at all times.
12/5: Effie has a habit of barking on and off throughout the night. Otherwise, she's been a good guest. She eats well and gets along with the other dogs nicely.
