I completely forgot to post an update from Saturday, we raised $46.37 for the Humane Society of Midland County
Not bad for only being set up for 4hrs :)
It may not be much, but it's our way of giving back and saying thanks for the dog we love so much.

If you have a HSoMC Alumi that we've worked with, comment them below!!! 👇🏻

Congratulations to Emily and Henry on passing their Canine Good Citizen test today!!!

We met Emily when she was one of our 4-H kiddos that we mentored for dog handling. She and her mom decided to continue classes with us and now they are regular faces during our outings and events! You might see her or Rebecca maning the table, assisting at dog sports, or training right along side us! We love having you guys as part of the Bluestone's family!!!

This Saturday is Purina Days at Tractor Supply in Midland! 10am -2pm
And guess what???
Sara Hammond will be offering CGC testing!!! What's that? It's Canine Good Citizen! Your dog has to pass 10 test items, and you have an official Good Dog! You actually don't even need an AKC # to take the test!

But wait, there's more!
We're going to have the PRIZE WHEEL back!!! DONATE to spin and win some training coupons, gear, or even a dog beer (Busch Branded Turkey Broth)!
All donations made for spinning the wheel will stay right in Midland County, and go to the Humane Society of Midland County ! It's the rescue Fin was adopted from 😁

Come see us this Saturday from 10-2! Pet the dogs, ask questions, sign up for training!

Ryker and I attended the Ironpaws fundraiser event today, and we thoroughly enjoyed the experience. We were particularly enthusiastic about observing the various canine participants and trying out the new activities.

During the event, Ryker successfully completed his CGC test, and I am pleased to report that he passed. Furthermore, we participated in the raffles and won two prizes: a lovely gift basket and a portable crate. We also purchased a new slip leash.
Overall, the day proved to be enjoyable.

Kassandra Marie and Fin successfully completed their intermediate trick dog test, earning them another title; however, photographic documentation was unavailable.

CAT in FastCAT stands for Coursing Ability Test. Your dog gets to chase a plastic bag in a straight line for 100y.
The sport requires confidence, drive, and natural ability. It's one of the best sports for newcomers into the world of dog sorts.
Titles are based on a point system.
BCAT- 150 points
DCAT- 500 points
FCAT- 1000 points
The faster your dog runs, the more points they get!
Fin, Henry and Ryker all had their first runs back in June, and today they earned enough points to qualify for their BCAT titles!
Happy boys, happy mom's, happiest together 🩵

Day 1 of our Weekend of the Dogs is a wrap!
Kassie and Sara are in Davison this weekend running FastCAT!
Henry, Ryker, and Fin have been running hard for that plastic bag!
We're so proud of these dogs. They've all come so far.
We also want to congratulate Janet and Tikanni on passing their Canine Good Citizen (CGC) and Canine Good Citizen Advanced (CGCA)! It was a pleasure to meet you both!

Join us tonight for some music, furry friends and fun! Tunes by the Tridge, 7-9pm
Sara Hammond and Kassandra Marie will be in Downtown Midland tonight working the dogs, and would love to see old friends and make some new ones!
This is not a puppy playdate, just an opportunity to expose your dog to new sights, sounds, smells, and learning neutrality.
Are you a trainer in the area too? We'd love to meet up and talk dogs!
Hope to see some familiar faces tonight!

Did you know we offer day outings???
Jovie and her parents joined Sara and Ryker at at the Bay City Mall to get her exposed to different sights, sounds and smells!

You can join Sara or Kassie with their pups, or the girls will take your furry friend along with them for the ride! Outings usually involve 2 or more other dogs to work on neutral interactions and help to build confidence in new or different situations.

**Indoor outings take place in PET FRIENDLY buildings**

Here are some exercises that I personally use with my reactive dog. We are currently working on impulse control. It is not easy to own a reactive dog. However, it is possible to live a happy life with them and provide them with the life they deserve.

Don't forget we have a reactive dog class starting nov 7th.
