We are very excited to be in an area where we can offer convenience, flexibility and a whole lot of tail wagging. Our location offers: holistic pet foods and treats, toys, leashes, collars, dog training (classes as well as individual and in home sessions), doggie day school and kennel free boarding. Doggie Day School: is all about individual attention and playtime in a social environment with other temperament tested dogs who love to interact with people and other dogs. We pride ourselves about being a step above many doggie daycares. Your best friend will enjoy a day of play, socialization, individual help with special issues as well as walks. We keep our doggie day school small in numbers to allow us to provided individual time with your best friend. Doggie Day School/Boarding: We are offer boarding in a limited fashion, all dogs spending the night with us must be temperament tested in order to play with our Doggie Day School students. We are a kennel free facility, however we do have crates for those friends who enjoy some den time instead of sleeping on their very own air mattress with blankets. We will only board 10 dogs at a time to ensure your best friend has as much fun on their vacation as you do yours. A staff member always spends the night at our facility. Training classes/individual help: We offer a wide variety of classes and flexible days and times to our friends. At D & G's we don't believe a dog is just a dog, we believe your dog is your family member and love helping you and your best friend create a lifetime bond of trust, respect and love.

Everyone, please meet Harry, formally known as Potato Head. Harry arrived at our facility 2.5 weeks ago from Highland County Dog Pound and Wardens as our newest resident for our Diesel's Friends Shelter dog program. Harry is approximately 2 years old, has been neutered, and is current on all vaccines. During the last 2 weeks, he has been tested with all sizes and breeds of dogs and has done extremely well. He does amazing in his crate and has only had a couple of potty accidents when left unattended inside the training room. Harry is believed to be an Australian Shepherd mix and loves to learn and play. Harry is 35 lbs of joy. This pint-sized young man has been doing great on a leash, has gone on several field trips, and has handled himself like a pro. If you would like to meet this guy, please send a private message or text 1-937-218-2737

Congratulations to sweet Rusty, aka Al, who found his forever home through our Diesel's Friends Shelter dog program and a huge thank you to Rick Moreton and everyone else who shared Rusty on social media.
Because of your shares, the Mann family found their newest family member. Thank you to the Highland County Dog Pound and Wardens for being such a pleasure to work with.

Good things can come out of sad situations. 1.5 weeks ago we pulled Al now called Rusty from Highland County Dog Pound and Wardens. He has been neutered and will be fully vaccinated by the end of the month. Rusty is approximately 1 year and weighs a whopping 26lbs. He is doing amazing with any dog he meets, is fully house trained, and crate trained. This little guy will make your heart melt once he trusts you. He is a little shy. We would like to thank Mark and Lynn Harris for a donation in Goldie's honor, asking me to do what I need to do with the money. We would love to get his brother out of the shelter as well, but we either need to get Rusty adopted or find an appropriate foster for Potato Head. We will be posting more photos of this sweet boy as we get to know him better.

A small golden star was born on April 28,2016, at Ross County Humane Society. Her purpose found their way to her on July 11,2016, and that beautiful star burned out on July 18, 2026. We were honored to be such a large part of Goldie and her families lives over the years. I have been delaying this post as her departure happened just 3 weeks after our Griff's departure and in all honesty I still can't find the words to express my extreme gratitude and love for not only Goldie but her family. All of our lives are just a little less blessed without that sweet girl climbing into our souls and making sure we all knew how loved we were. Love you forever and always, sweet girl, til we meet again.

The grief at times is almost overwhelming, but then I realize the honor I was given to be blessed by such an amazing friend through all the lessons we learned together. Dex was my business partner. He was my copilot and taught me more than I was able to comprehend while he was still with me. So many times, when watching young dogs getting just a little to amped up and not being respectful to their elders, I catch myself thinking, what would Dex do? I can't believe tomorrow, July 29th, will be 3 years since I last held that sweet old man in my arms as he took his last breath. Our first year was nothing short of a miracle that we both survived and still respected one another. Year 2 still had it's challenges and he was definitely still a wild card but had become such an important part of my world.
12.5 years on this earth, 10.5 years with me, truly was not long enough for me, but I know Dex had fulfilled his purpose with me, and it was time to rest and prepare for his next. Forever and always Dex.

Yesterday was a healing day for Doretta and I. We sure have had a rough 14 months. The tough part about approaching 14 years with doggie day school, boarding and training is the families and their beloved dogs become such a part of our every day lives. Over the last 14 years we have shaken our heads together, we have laughed together, we have celebrated together we have cried together, we have worried together and now we find ourselves mourning together much more frequently than anyone should. In the last 14 months, 18 of our beloved friends have started their next journey at The Rainbow Bridge. Most recently my own Griff and shortly after him sweet Goldie. In honor of all these wonderful souls we would like you see some of the souls waiting for our help including sweet Rueger who took my breath away as he is a 6 year old slightly smaller version of Griff. Pay special attention to the little guy I'm petting, he will be joining our Diesel's Friends Shelter dog program very soon and will be available for adoption. Highland County Dog Pound and Wardens

At 5:52 a m. Tuesday, June 23rd. My heart stopped. My friend, my smile, my laughter, my comfort and the one friend I have ever had who accepted all the dogs, fallen birds, stray rabbits, cats and yes even a baby opposum without hesitation, passed suddenly in my arms with his siblings surrounding him. He made my heart dance every time his favorite song played, Pentatonix "Hallelujah." He always sang the chorus with such feelings. He was judged constantly by Dex in the day and continued to be judged by Dorscha for what we always called the weekend parent with puppies. The other dogs would work hard to teach the pups' manners and respect to the other dogs, and within seconds, Griff would undo everything by laying on the ground for the puppies to crawl on him. He loved nothing more than going to the lake with me on Sunday mornings, just the two of us. His eyes connected with all humans in a way that we all knew Griff understood our deepest thoughts and feelings and never once judged us. On hard days, he felt the best therapy was to offer his butt for a good scratch, and yes, it always made we mere humans feel better.
