Just a little PSA to other small business owners.

I keep getting this letter. It says I have won an award for Best Dog Trainer in Walla Walla! Wow, what an accomplishment right? What could I be complaining about?

I HAVE TO PAY FOR THE TROPHY!!! This is a scam for sure. There is no way I should have to pay for something being awarded to me, thats not how this works.

Just remember, if you didnt enter in any kind if contest, or you have to pay for something, its not real.

So I'm going to use their letter as my award. I am considered one of the best! That so nice. Yay me!

No Agility or Packwalk today du3 to air quality. However I do have an alternative option!

Good morning!

I am curious if there is someone out there who is good with woodwork and building items, who is also looking for a dog trainer.

As many of you know I have different colored hair all the time, well my hair stylist and I do a trade of services. I am hoping to do the same thing here. A few of my agility parts need some help or modification.

So if you are someone who can help, or you know someone who might be interested please pass my information over so we can talk!

Happy Sunday!

I have a Puppy PrinciPals class scheduled to start tomorrow, Sunday July 18th, at 2pm. Only one puppy is signed up and we need at least one more. We will learn all basic manners such as name response, come, sit, and more. They will also get time to socialize with other puppies and people. This is a great way to start your puppies training journey off right. This is a 6 week couse were we meet once a week for an hour, the total cost being $180. Puppies must be at least 8 weeks old with their first set of shots administered and need to stay on their shot schedule during the duration of class. If you're interested, you can sign up on my website, message me here, or text/call (509)593-9772.

Good afternoon dog people!
A couple days ago I got a cut on the bottom of my foot. Its healing nicely, however walking still hurts. With that, as well as low numbers signed up today, Im going to go a head a cancel packwalk, agility, and puppy playdate. However, I might have a surprise tomorrow you want to stay tuned for!

I hope you all had a safe 4th of July, and are enjoying the rest of your weekend.

Happy 4th of July. Friendly reminder that today is a good day to take the dogs outside to potty ON leash regardless of if you have a fenced in yard. If they can slip their collar, put a harness on them. Keep them safe, keep them close. Hope to see you all tomorrow for packwalk or agility!

Mordka is looking for a new home!

➡Please note: Mordka is not at Blue Mountain Humane Society — he is still with his current family until a new home is found.

All adoption inquiries should be directed to the current family through the Home To Home website at https://home-home.org/pets/84a3da50-c7b8-4bdf-ab6e-f7685379a90c

About Mordka:
📍Location: Walla Walla
🐶Age/Sex: 11-year-old male dog
✂Fixed: Yes
💉Vaccinated: Yes

Mordka is an older small dog who has lived with large dogs, older kids, and cats. He enjoys being a couch/bed floof and going on walks. He isn’t fond of the leash, collar, or harness but can be persuaded.

He loves riding in the car, going for a pup cup or visiting the river. He knows basic commands and is very food motivated. He hates baths and needs to have his nails clipped at the vet with the help of some medicine.

Mordka is a senior dog but has no known health problems.

If Mordka sounds like a good fit for your home, reach out to his current family through the Home To Home link above!

Thanks to our partnership with Home To Home™, pet owners in the Walla Walla Valley can find new homes for their pets directly — no shelter stay needed. It’s one of the ways Blue Mountain Humane Society helps keep families and pets supported while reducing shelter crowding.
