We are proud to partner with Nickels Pub!

Nickels Pub has been a wonderful supporter of Dawgs at Work, providing a welcoming space where dogs, their people, and our community can come together. From hosting our Pup-Up training workshops to supporting special events and community connections, they help us make quality dog training more accessible, engaging, and fun.

Our workshops give handlers the opportunity to build practical skills with their dogs in a real-world environment. After class, participants can relax, enjoy a drink, and connect with other local dog lovers.

We are grateful to work with a local business that values dogs, people, and community as much as we do. Be sure to follow us for upcoming workshops and events at Nickels Pub!

Feature Friday Breed Spotlight: Newfoundland

This week’s spotlight goes to the Newfoundland. According to the AKC, Newfoundlands are sweet, patient, and devoted dogs known for their gentle nature and massive size. Originally bred as working dogs for fishermen, these powerful dogs became famous for their incredible swimming ability and natural lifesaving instincts.

Fun fact: Newfoundlands have partially webbed feet, making them exceptional swimmers and earning them a reputation as the “lifeguards” of the dog world.

Interested in adding a Newfoundland to your family? Dawgs at Work proudly partners with Doggit to help connect families with ethically sourced dogs from reputable breeders. Reach out and let us help find the perfect match for your lifestyle and goals.

We are happy to have a trusted referral connection with AdvantaClean of Badgerland!

Pet odors can settle deep into carpets, furniture, flooring, and other hard to reach areas where ordinary cleaning products simply cannot reach. The experienced team at AdvantaClean uses high quality professional treatments to target odors at their source instead of temporarily covering them up.

While their team tackles the lingering odors in your home, our trainers can help you address the housebreaking challenges causing them. Together, we can help you break the cycle and get your home smelling fresh again.

AdvantaClean delivers noticeable results within 24 hours instead of days, and those results are made to last. If you are struggling with housebreaking and stubborn pet odors, contact us. We would be happy to help with training and connect you with their trusted team!

The kids went back to school, the schedules got busy, and Iris is officially clocked out after surviving the first-week chaos! 😂 A good chew and a long nap were definitely well earned.

This beautiful golden girl is sweet, loving, and currently available for purchase as a therapy or service dog prospect. Iris is ready to continue her training and find the special person or family she is meant to serve. Could that be you?
