It's spring break and you know what that means... a busy kennel! But we have had such good weather so far for the dogs to play outside in. We are definitely enjoying our time here and hope that all the families on vacation are enjoying their time as well!

I worked with Nash as a pup and now he's all grown up. He's such a sweetheart, but he has gotten to be a big boy!

His owners asked if I could work with him/ teach him how to use a ramp during his stay here. If he can use a ramp he can hopefully avoid tasks that would put a lot of extra strain on his joints/ hips, like jumping in/ out of their car.

Here's a video showing a lot of the steps we went through to help teach him this skill!

Okay everyone, here is the last week of our center heel videos - #3! I hope you've been tagging along and working with your dog on this skill/ trick

I had a lot of fun making this, "learning with Courtney," three part video series and sharing some knowledge of how I teach this fun party trick. I hope you guys enjoyed it and are having some great results with your own dog! If you participated I would love to see a video of you and your pup showing off in the comments!!! 🥳🎉

Everyone get ready for this 3 weeks series, "Learning with Courtney," as we train a center heel!!!

My little brother who lives out of state recently rescued a German Shepherd and was asking me about how to teach different tricks that my dogs do. I filmed a couple funny videos breaking tricks down for him and joked that it was a web series called "learning with Courtney." He told me that the videos really helped, and it inspired me to go back and refilm a fun little 3 part video sequence which breaks down the training for teaching this skill, center heel.

Feel free to jump in and teach your own dog this skill. I'll post the next video each week for these 3 weeks! I hope you have fun watching it/ practicing with your own dog. And I would love to see videos in the comments of you guys working on it 🎉

Wishing everyone a Happy Thanksgiving from the pups boarding here at Tender Care and More Training! 🦃🥧🍽️

There is so much to be grateful for in this life, both big and small! It is such a privilege to be entrusted with watching over and celebrating the day with these special pups as there families travel to see their loved ones. My little helper, Emelyn, gave each one of them a special treat with their dinner!

I have always LOVED taking pictures of animals, so taking photos of the dogs here for boarding to send to the owners is definitely something I look forward to and have a lot of fun with! My favorite pictures are the action shots and of course the obedience ones (everyone sitting and looking at the camera). Here are some of my favorites over the last few months. There are a ton to pick from, so if I sent you a great shot that isn't included feel free to drop it in the comments! 😊

Miss Ava finished up her in-home training program last night! 🥳🎉 She learned so many new skills and I want to applaud her owners for dedicating the time to learn right alongside her and working on the homework with her each week! They did awesome!!!

If you're willing to put in the time I'm willing to teach you and share my knowledge so your dog can make leaps and bounds just like Ava did!

Congratulations miss Ava we are so proud of you!!!

Also a special thanks to Randy Claycamp at R-H German Shepherds & Kennels for breeding such fantastic dogs like Ava

I hope everyone is having a great Labor Day weekend! It is a full house here and all the dogs are having a blast!
