Helping Hounds Dog Training

Our beautiful Gracie passed away unexpectedly this week. This has been a difficult one for us. I met Gracie and her mom, Livi, back when I ran daycare from my backyard. When we first started working together I had to stand about 25 feet away and hope that her mom was able to keep her safe. Livi surprised all of us. Not only was she determined to make her the best version of herself but Gracie made many many friends in the process. Since then, Livi and her 3 dogs became much more than clients, they became our family. Thank you for letting us be a part of this beautiful girls life. Rest easy sweet girl

It’s such a bittersweet thing to watch our beloved client pups become more tastefully seasoned throughout the years.
Leia has been coming to us since I worked all of our dogs out my home before 2020. We’ve spent many holidays and life events together. Watching her face change and her wisdom grow has been such a beautiful thing. I’m so lucky to have client dogs that feel like my very own.
(No worries there’s nothing wrong with her. I was just reminiscing while looking through her photos)
