SKIPPER SUNDAY!!

Another GunDog Garage client crushing it.

Blaise wasn’t the only dog that trains with us to max prize a test at the Lone Star NAVHDA test earlier this month.

Skipper, handled by his owner Ward, had a great day and earned a max score 112/112 Prize 1 in his Natural Ability test. Not bad for these sensitive French city dogs…

We’ve been working with Ward and Skipper for a number of months both in obedience and the foundational work for steadiness. He is also 90% of the way through his trained retrieve.

On to the GDT in 2026!

Skipper was bred by High Draw Gun Dogs.

All of this.

Don’t just HAVE a dog and certainly don’t get more, or foster, when your existing dog has problems.

Predictable behavior is preventable.

Hope isn’t a plan. Failure to prepare is negligent.

MEET HANNAH
(and her goofy cattle dog mix, Milo)

Meet Hannah, our latest shadow student. She moved here a few weeks ago, most recently from the Austin area.

Hannah is looking to add a sporting breed to her pack in the near future; one of the reasons she’s come to learn from us.

Before starting her training journey, she worked as a professional groomer. She also has experience in shelter & rescue world.

Bringing your pet in public is a privilege, not a right.

Not only is this absurdly rude, it’s also against health code.

Incoming rant so keep scrolling if you’re not interested!! This is probably gonna hurt some feelings! 🤷🏼‍♀️

I get it! People like to take their dogs places with them. Heck I like being able to take my dog places too including outdoor patios.

Here is the problem, it’s because of this (see picture) that places don’t allow dogs. If you feel so entitled that you need to take your dogs (yes there are 2 dogs in that picture) and have them not only sit at the table but also take food from the table YOU ARE THE PROBLEM!! You are why places don’t want to allow dogs! You are the reason the rest of us, that have respect for other people and the establishment, are not allowed to enjoy our dogs out in public!

This is not only nasty, it’s also disrespectful! Keep your dog on the ground and off the chairs and tables at a restaurant.

This is a dog friendly patio! Yes the restaurant should have also said something to this person but people should be smarter than that!!

A few of our current Power Puppy Program participants.

Millie the Golden Retriever

Training happens with every single interaction you have with your dog and, ideally, starts the moment they leave the breeder.

Don’t know what to do or how to get started? We’re here to help.
