Spring has Sprung! 🌸
& so has many of your motivation to get back into dog training.

I am so excited to offer the following group classes beginning next month!

Each course will run for 6 weeks consecutively meeting once a week.
Cost of class is $150
(Recommended class items are not included)

Classes will run for roughly an hour and are limited to 6 participants per course.
(No more than 2 dogs per handler)

“So you want to be a bird dog?”
❗️CLASS FULL
Open to all age groups and breeds

Beginning 5.2 through 6.6
10am to 11am

If you own a sporting breed (or not) and feel like you could be doing more to meet your dog’s needs or you’re interested in hunting, but you don’t know where to begin? This is the start for you!

During this course we will cover many disciplines that pet owners can utilize not only at home but also while building their sporting breed for the field. We will also talk about the various clubs and opportunities right here in our state.

Covering but not limited too:
• Recall while building hunt drive and owner relationship through play, all while free shaping a retrieve
• Bird Intro when you have no access to birds
• Tracking skills
• Woah / Place / Stand stay work and how to build duration through distractions
• Making water fun
• How to safely prepare and introduce your dog to Gunfire

💜“Shaping a focused and confident Heel”💜
Open to all age groups
❗️4 spots available
Beginning 4.29 through 6.3
6pm to 7pm

Do you have “heeling envy”? Do you see all those prancing dogs in perfect position looking up at their handlers and wish you could teach your dog THAT? Are you preparing for the Summer Classic? No matter where you are in your heelwork, you can always start back at square 1!
This class is all about free shaping and building just that. It includes finishes, both left and right and all the pre req skills that make fancy turns later on.

💜“STAR Puppy Foundations”💜
6 months and under
❗️4 spots available
Beginning 4.28 through 6.2
6pm to 7pm

The S.T.A.R. Puppy is an exciting program designed to get dog owners and their puppies off to a good start created by AKC. This course is an excellent first in-person training class that will teach you how to best communicate with your puppy. Organized training classes also provide an opportunity for your dog to socialize with other dogs. In classes aimed at earning the AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy distinction, you’ll be able to get information on all your puppy-raising questions including housetraining, chewing, and the most effective way to teach practical skills such as coming when called and other basic obedience foundational skills.

After a much needed month off in February, we just wrapped up our March board and train students stay! 🥳

Congratulations, Honey Bunny!🍯🐰

This sweet 6 month old Labrador retriever exhibited typical lab behavior of jumping, counter surfing, eating things she shouldn’t and pulling on the leash. Over the last two weeks she has built a new foundation to a structured life brick by brick and I am so proud of the progress that was made. 🐾

Look forward to seeing this girl around in the future 🩵

New year, new graduates!
Join us in congratulating our January B+T Boudreaux 🎓🩵

This 5 month old Catahoula Leopard Dog went from thinking home was his jungle gym and he enjoyed jumping into people's legs, counter surfing, trash diving, and pretending to be a sled dog when on leash (you know all the usual unruly puppy behaviors)!To focusing on building a calm state of mind around food, understanding how to relax and be okay with doing ~nothing ~ and understanding basic obedience while building confidence outside of the home.

Catahoula’s are a unique breed and not for every one! They are known for their high intelligence, intense energy, and "velcro" nature, often exhibiting unique quirks like vocalizing (baying/barking), intense staring ("guardy" behavior), and a stubborn, independent streak. They are highly loyal, often leaning on their owners for comfort, yet they can be aloof with strangers and require firm, consistent training.
You can learn more about them here - https://www.akc.org/dog-breeds/catahoula-leopard-dog/

Once we had B in the right headspace and convinced this whole learning thing was fun, he was able to master his obedience skills including but not limited to Down/Stay with Distractions, Manners with People, Loose Leash Walking, Threshold Manners, Leave it, Drop it and Switch, Place and more!

He was a humbling client dog that made me work outside of my box and I can't wait to see get him back for a refresher to continue his e collar skills soon! 🐾

Merry Christmas from us to you!

Featuring this years holiday boarders Remi, Jordy, Wednesday and Willie ♥️🎅🏽

Yes! We are still in business 🤪
I have been blessed to be so booked out I admittedly started slacking on maintaining social media thanks to YOU all. 💜🐾

For new inquiring clients, I am currently booking through February. At this time I am offering in home board and trains, boarding to past clients only, adventures, private lessons and limited workshops.

Join me in congratulating, Remy, our most recent board and train graduate! 🎓

Remy joined our program as a cautious, shy girl! A wild bucking bronco who had never been on leash, a Sarah McLachlan commercial during bath time and cooperative care, a puppy who sought out avoidance over connection and over the last three weeks she has blossomed into the sweetest, loving girly!

Her owner decided to extend her stay an additional week and it was much needed. Remy has grown much more confident, finds value in humans and is eager to work and learn. She now walks very nicely and auto-sits on leash, knows her basics very well, can hang out on place, and is great at practicing her skills in public too!
Congratulations Remy & Kendra! ⭐️

We have been SO swamped with life and business I have been MIA.

Dropping in to share my updated current services and varying price increases as last minute boarding inquiries roll in.

BOARDING is limited to past clients ONLY.
All dogs are now boarding IN HOME and the pricing reflects that.

I am currently booked out on Board and Trains and have very limited boarding availability through September at this time.

B+T graduates, don't forget, you can book a refresher at any time!

I am excited to share I have a new team member currently working under me only offering Stay and Play boarding services at this time!

I just realized my scheduled Valentines Day post never posted … too cute to not share with you all and never too late to spread love💌💘💋😍

It has been precisely two weeks since our relocation from 2408 Thomas Drive. 👋🏽

The two-year lease served as a temporary bridge to future endeavors, laying the groundwork for new client relationships, memories, and milestones in both business and personal growth, for which I am truly grateful. 💜

I am eager to share our plans for 2025 and continue providing exclusive pet care and training services.

Following a much-needed two-week break, I am excited to resume operations.

During this transitional period, our services will be limited to adventure club opportunities, puppy board and train, and private lessons.
