Ollie is an 11-month-old goldendoodle who is super smart and extremely friendly. He has a hard time greeting people without getting overstimulated. He will jump and mouth on hands and arms. We met at Home Depot today to work on greeting people nicely and calmly. He did such a great job! In this pic he’s laying nicely next to an employee at HD named Jackie. He did so well approaching her calmly and gave kisses to her hands rather than mouthing her. Couldn’t have been more proud of him. Next up, he’ll be taking the CGC test. You got this Ollie!!

Skylar with her game face after passing the CGC test. She came to slay the test and slay she did!! She said, “To quote 5 time Olympic gold medalist Bonnie Blair, ‘Winning doesn't always mean being first. Winning means you're doing better than you've ever done before." You’re definitely doing an amazing job, Skylar! Keep it up.

passed the CGC test with flying colors! When asked how he did it he said, “Well, April, my name is Snax for a reason. Let’s just say I was promised some extra delicious snacks at the end. Proper motivation is key.” Way to go Snax!! Keep up the great work.

Grover takes his accomplishment of passing the CGC test very seriously. His PSA of the day for all of the other pups, “Listen to your people, train hard for treats, and one day you can be just like me. And remember, no pup is too cool for school.” Great job Grover!! You’re a rockstar. *
