PSA: we will no longer be stocking or selling our webbing buckle/flat collars or leashes at our store front!

The truth is we need the space for our more popular products.

Our webbing collars are still available online for shipping or in store pick up but may take a couple days to get transferred from our warehouse to the shop.

Webbing Martingales are still available in store.

We have doubled our inventory at the shop for training equipment, DDC, slips, ecollar straps, wristlets and BioThane leashes. Come check it out!

Help us to help Keylee Harvey heal!

On September 22nd, Keylee's birthday, she was traveling from Arizona to Washington state when she was involved in a bad car crash in California. Keylee is in the hospital with a shattered pelvis, a brain bleed and a partially collapsed lung. Her German Shepherd Rogue was also in the car and has a dislocated hip and shattered shoulder.

We have organized a Fundraising event to raise money for medical expenses. On Sunday, October 11th we will be hosting a dog sport event at IBK9 where Keylee works as a dog trainer.

There will be a scent work trial, dock diving, and decoy bite opportunities as well as raffles and a food truck. All proceeds from registration fees and raffles will be paid directly to Keylee's Venmo. keyleeharvey

A portion of sales from Training Packages, Retail purchases and Food Truck sales will also go directly to Keylee and Rogue.

If you'd like to attend please use the Google form link to register your dog, payment will be due at time of registration to secure your spot. Spectators do not need to register.

If you are unable to attend and would still like to help you may donate directly to Keylee's Venmo.

R&D is in full swing on some new products.
New Machine
New Software
New Supplies

In case you missed it, we make all of our products in house. Literally "in our house"🏡

For us coming up with new products to make and sell is always about capabilities not "know how" or "ideas." I have a million ideas and know how to make them I just lack the equipment for most things.

I refuse to cut corners and make lower quality products because I'm "making do" with what I have. If we can't produce the best quality dog gear with the correct equipment then we aren't making it.

Y'all have asked for years if we could make embroidered collars and patches and my answer has always been, "technically yes but I won't do it." If I can't guarantee the quality outcome time after time, it's not worth half assing just to make a buck.

But the wait is getting shorter! My industrial embroidery machine arrived last week and I'm testing it's limits. We will be launching patches at ALECA K9 Trials in October. Custom collars will be coming eventually. (I need one more new machine to make it happen. 🤫)

Tell us what saying you want on patches.

Today we wish Kona the Queen a Happy 8th Birthday!

It's a bittersweet day as we also wish her sister Benelli happy birthday in heaven. She passed last week. These 2 girls not only brought Michelle Torres and I closer as besties, they inspired an entire lifestyle, community and career changes. They are the absolute best dogs in the whole entire world. We will miss you forever Nelli.

Take this day to spend with your pups, hold them tight and treat them well. We never know how long we get to have their unconditional love.

Happy Birthday Kona, I could not imagine this life without you!
