Dogs do not fail, they perform as trained. Dogs fail when we ask them to perform that which we have not adequately prepared them. -Steve White

Each smile says it all!

Individual graduating pictures are a must! So here is each canine owner/handler team after passing each of their tests.

Job well done to each of you!

Well that's a wrap!

CONGRATS to all 8 canines and their owners on a job well done! Everyone successfully graduated from our AKC puppy S.T.A.R. and basic obedience class this week. Not to mention a handful are also claiming their new official AKC title and adding letters to their name! This class in its entirety proves just how hard work with great determination and clear communication can get you, and your dog, far in life together.

Thank you to our friends Mississippi Mutts for the pup goodie bags for our graduating class, according to the pups they were delicious!

Congrats to Napoleon and his owner on a job well done!

Both of their smiles couldn't say it better... hard work pays off, just ask these two! For the last couple months Napoleon and his owner have been fine tuning their skills to successfully pass in all three CGCs.

Napoleon now officially has CGC, CGC-A, and CGC-U!
