Here's a Huge Shout-out to my new group of graduates from Diamond in the Ruff Dog Obedience Training!! This was a wonderful group of dogs & owners and they did a great job of learning their roles in the pecking order. I love watching the owners becoming their dog's calm, confident Pack Leader - which creates a much calmer, obedient and happier pet.

Kudos to the TIED winners of the Recall Race:
1st Place (tied): The Engels Family and "Bailey" (Goldendoodle)
1st Place (tied): Margaret O'Conner & Tyler and "Jango" (Chocolate Lab)
Way to Go!!!

Please keep up the excellent job of being Alpha Dog in your Pack, so your pups can relax, respect, and trust you as their leader! Hope to see you again in another Beginner/Intermediate Class as a refresher or in my Advanced Class in the Fall!

A well trained dog is a joy forever!! :)

Big Shout-out to my newest group of graduates from my ADVANCED Dog Obedience Class!!! What a great group of people and dogs!! I had such a fun time working with this fantastic class of dedicated dogs and owners. I'm so very, very proud of all of you. You put in the work and it showed!

As part of my Advanced Class curriculum, we go to a restaurant and the dogs must remain in a Down Stay by the owner under the table, while we enjoyed eating dinner together. It's a great exercise to expose dogs to a lot of distractions, people, noise, and smells - while they stay chilled and relaxed at the restaurant. A special Thanks to Spoke & Hub on Government for a wonderful experience!!

Advanced Class Graduates:
Top Left to Right....
Alicia & James Nosacka and "Prince" (Black Lab/G.Shep Mix)
Laurie & John Gehling and "Maisie" (Havanese)
Jack Bell and "Bean" (Pit Bull Mix)
Josh & Michele Crowe and "Dolly" (Yellow Lab)
Natalie Glover and "Blue" (Aussie/Lab Mix)
(Seated) Kim Davis and "Gabby" (Min. Schnauzer)
Unable to attend dinner, but attended class....
Angela Nuslock and "Pesto" (Aussiedoodle)

Huge Congrats to all of you!! You guys rock!! Keep up the great work and hope to see you back in the Fall Advanced Class as a refresher.

Wow!!! Congrats to my first group of graduates from Diamond in the Ruff Dog Obedience Training for 2025. This was an amazing group of dog owners and their dogs! Such a fun group of dedicated people and their pets. I can't tell you how proud I am of ALL of you (both 2-legged and 4)!! It was a beautiful thing to witness the transformation that took place from Week 1 to Week 5. Everything from wild, barking, out of control, hyper, shy, dogs pulling their owners on the leash to calm, obedient, well behaved, happy & content dogs. Soooo, what changed?? The leadership!! Thank you so much for taking your role as Pack Leader seriously and doing a phenomenal job becoming your dog's confident Alpha Dog. Kudos to every single one of you for your hard work and diligence to make the Diamond in your Ruff shine so brightly today!! I'm pumped for you!

A special shout-out to the Recall Race winners:
1st Place - Alicia & Patrick Kelly and "Mac" (G.S./Pitbull Mix)
2nd Place - Ann Prejean and "Whiskey" (Labradoodle)
3rd Place - Craig Dauzat & Adam Marks and "Windsor" (Goldendoodle)
Way to go, everyone!! WooHoo!!

Please continue being the greatest Pack Leader you can be. They're depending on you!!
