HAPPY PUPPY GRADUATION, MILLIE! Millie is a herding breed mix, who is currently holding the record for fastest learner in class. Multiple times when explaining how we will teach a *brand new* behavior, Millie went ahead and did it herself, before I had even finished explaining. Almost every week I was asking mom, "Are you sure she hasn't been taught this before?"

All you had to do was think of a command in your brain, and she would do it. While these shockingly smart, high drive dogs do come with their own challenges, they hold so much potential as well! I am super excited to have Millie back in class and to hear about her breed test results!🥳🥳🥳

Happy graduation Gwen and Floki!! These two were best friends as soon as they saw each other!! So much laughter was shared in our classes with these two's antics, but despite their endless desire to play, they learned so much in our six weeks together.

Beginner class is exactly that.. the beginning! I am so excited to watch these two flourish as they continue refining their new skills in Intermediate. These two genuinely loved coming to class each day and seeing them and their owners always brightened my afternoon🥳🥳😊

TULA has graduated Advanced class!! Advanced graduations are always bittersweet.. for 18 weeks I get to enjoy the company of Tula and Dianne, but now Tula has mastered everything from sit, to walking, heel, stay and so much more. All in all, all three classes entail about 30 commands, and all the manners you need to invite your dog everywhere with you.

I am so in love with Mrs. Dianne's family of bulldogs and everyone else who seems them is as well! They live such enriched, loved lives and they have benefited so much from training! Each bulldog in the family reflects how loved they are.. complete, and total focus on their owner. Not a thing in the world means more to them than Dianne does.

So, so proud of this team for going through all three levels and achieving so much! It is always such a pleasure seeing dogs turn into the best version of themselves, see owners communicating with their dog with ease, and both parties having a positive experience!

Dear Students,
I am writing to inform you of some class cancellations due to unforeseen personal circumstances. My dog, Jäger, has required emergency care and undergone two emergency surgeries as of last night. Unfortunately, we have not received a definitive timeline for his recovery or return home.

I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and encourage you to reach out via Messenger for guidance in the interim. I regret that I am unable to be present physically, but I am eager to provide support digitally. In the mean time, please comment the cutest photos of your dogs❤️❤️❤️

CONGRATULATIONS TULA, SISTER OF TILLY! Tula is another amazing little bulldog, blessed to live with the amazing Dianne!! As all of her dogs do, Tula passed Intermediate with flying colors. All of the employees here at Epping PetSmart get so excited to see these bulldogs bumbling into the store! And thanks to Dianne's dedication to training each of her dogs, they are all truly "go anywhere and do anything" dogs. We are all looking forward to the up-and-coming Tula to start Advanced in June!
