💫UPGRADE!! Mia and Ally are having a successful girl summer! Both have earned their blue leash today.💫

What do our staff’s leash colors mean?
*Orange Leashes are still learning the ropes.
*Green Leashes have mastered our policies and procedures and are confident dog handlers. Pet First Aid certification is earned here.
*Blue Leashes are mentors for orange and green. They have an opportunity to attend seminars and further their dog knowledge.
*Purple Leashes are our leaders. They train new staff, and make sure all day to day operations run smoothly.

Make sure to congratulate these two when you see them! They worked hard to earn them!💙
