*** DETECTION NIGHT****. Something new for Detection Night this week… and it’s a big one.
Introducing our brand-new Bark Boxes for live-find disaster SAR dogs!

These units are literally designed to hide a human inside so your dog can hunt, locate, and then get paid with explosive enthusiasm from the person they “find.”
Yes—they work beautifully for other odors too (HRD, narcotics, explosives, fi****ms), but their primary purpose is to introduce a whole new dimension of realistic live-find detection work.

And don’t worry—we’re still running all your favorite challenges:
💦 Submerged hides (thanks, recent flooding)
🔥 Complex explosive & narcotics problems
🔥 Fi****ms detection
🔥 HRD problems
🔥 AND a bonfire because Oregon in December…

Detection Night is a club, a community, and straight-up a fun way to level up your dog.
You’ll meet other detection handlers, pick up new skills, learn from instructors, and most importantly—your dog will have the time of their life. (Bring a headlamp 💡)

Cost: $20
When: Every other Thursday @ 6:30 PM — this one is December 11th
Where: Huffman K9
RSVP: [email protected] • DM here • or call 503.308.8296

Come train, come learn, come get warm near the fire with us.
See you Thursday. 🔥🐕‍🦺

💀“You wanted to know who the best is?
That’s her. Tulip. She flies ice-cold. No mistakes. Wears you down. You get bored, do something stupid, and she’s got you.”

In this clip, Tulip is fully committed on the bite — pushing, driving, pressuring the decoy. Then, mid-stride, she’s given an out and down command. No hesitation. No negotiation. She releases instantly, drops into a clean down, and holds it with absolute confidence until she’s told one word: “Take.”

And then she explodes.

This is the difference between obedience and control, and it matters more than people realize.

Obedience is compliance rooted in avoidance of a consequence.

A dog adheres to a boundary because they fear the consequence of stepping out of it. It’s inhibition. It’s permissive. It’s doing the right thing in order to avoid the worse outcome.

Control is something else entirely.
Control is a dog exhibiting predictable, deliberate behavior because that behavior is the pathway to what they want most — the fight, the bite, the hunt, the work. While control maintains drive; obedience suppresses it.

Tulip isn’t “behaving” because she’s afraid of the alternative. She’s controlling herself because she knows the fastest way back into the fight is precision, clarity, and discipline under pressure.

This is what separates a dog who can follow rules…
From a dog who can solve problems, function under stress, and fight with a clear head.

A dog with obedience avoids mistakes.
A dog with control makes decisions.

Ice cold, deliberate, controlled, no mistakes.

When the detail wall isn’t hard enough so you turn it into a raised floor. 🫠

Ren is the genetic cross between a Dyson vacuum cleaner and a Lab. I don’t even have to give her a command. Such a joy working with dogs like this — they make me look good.
