Hot day, cool creek, happy dogs ☀️💦

Cooper and Daisy got to beat the heat with a little creek adventure during their boarding stay. Fresh air, shady water time, and lots of happy exploring, basically the perfect summer dog day.

Boarding here isn’t just “hang out until pickup.” We love giving dogs safe, structured outings that let them decompress, sniff, move their bodies, and enjoy being dogs.

Cooper and Daisy understood the assignment. 🐾💛

Welcome Buster! 🐾

This handsome cattle dog/border collie mix is here for board and train, and we’re already getting to know the smart, sensitive, opinionated boy underneath all that stranger-danger energy.

Buster is learning that he doesn’t have to make all the decisions on his own, and that clear direction can actually help him feel safer and more confident. We’ll be working on structure, confidence building, impulse control, leash handling, recall, and helping him make better choices when the world feels a little suspicious.

He’s a thoughtful guy with a big brain, and I’m excited to help him find more clarity, calm, and connection during his stay.

Welcome to training camp, Buster! 🤎🐶

🐾Group photo op! Leo the lab crushed the first part of his board and train package and is back for more. Part of our training includes learning social responsibility and being a respectful part of a pack. This helps dog learn social manners, engage around distractions, and allows them to build confidence being a dog around other socially responsible dogs as we do pack walks and explorations. Welcome back to Dottie and Koda (Jack Russel terriers), Cooper (golden retriever) and hello to our resident dog Dallas!

Welcome Leo 🐾

This handsome, sweet-natured adolescent Labrador is here for a board and train, and we’re getting him set up for success from the inside out.

We’re working through a mix of real-life skills and foundational training, including:

• Household and greeting manners
• Loose leash walking
• Basic obedience
• Off-leash recall
• Confidence building
• Appropriate outlets for his energy

We’re also focusing on getting his gut and routine back on track, because a dog can’t learn well if they don’t feel good.

The first few days are all about decompression, structure, building trust and consistency to give him a clear picture of what’s expected so he can settle in and start learning.

Excited to see him settle and grow over the next few weeks.

😍Welcome back to Louie and Bear who are both board and train graduates who are here boarding for the weekend while their families are out of town. I absolutely love having graduates stay in touch and return to enjoy camp. We build such a strong bond while they stay with me for board and train and it’s the best reward to see how well their people are doing giving them their best lives.
