Here you will view each current guest and learn what they are up to as well as viewing pics and videos of the current month's dog games. We also post pictures and videos on our Facebook page.
Enjoy!
Note: We will only be posting blogs and pics of dogs we're training, or are otherwise involved in activities such as swimming, hiking or showing. If you want pics of dogs who are here for only boarding there will be an additional fee of $15 per picture session as it's time consuming. Note: Often, however, our play yard videos (on Facebook) will feature all of our K9 guests; even those who are not scheduled for additional activities.

Jax and Hazel
We get to spend a long weekend with Jax and Hazel. They are both great dogs who thoroughly enjoy their adventures.
Zozo
4/17: Zozo is visiting us for a few days of boarding. Of course, she gets her training and hikes, too.
1/4: Zozo has returned to her 3 day/week daycare and training pattern. Today we got in a couple good lessons. We have lots of work to do in order to be ready for the February shows. She'll be in Rally Excellent B and Beginner Novice. Each have their challenges.
Zozo is my Rhodesian Ridgeback show dog. She's staying with us for a week, plus going to 2 obedience trials this weekend (Dec. 2 and 3) She aced the trial a few weeks ago with high scores and a first and third place. We hope to at the very least repeat the high scores to complete 2 more titles.
12/3: We had a successful show weekend. Zozo earned 2 more titles - Rally Advanced B and Rally Intermediate. She got 2 blues (1 in Rally Intermediate and 1 in Beginner Novice) and a fourth (in Rally Advanced. I'm thrilled as it takes super high scores to pin at all.) this weekend. This means our next show we have to compete in Rally Excellent - a very challenging level in every respect. She also earned her first leg of Beginner Novice Obedience, winning the class. 2 more of those for another title. So far this year, Zozo has earned 3 titles!!!
2/10: The next chapter in Zozo's show career started today. We were entered in Beginner Novice B. She did not perform as her perfect self, but well enough to get a second leg on her title and earn a 2nd place ribbon. Though we're scheduled for an Excellent B class tomorrow we'll be nixing it as it is going to rain hard and she gets freaky when there's hard rain on the roof of the building she's working in. We'll skip it and move on to the next show.
3/31: Zozo had a successful show weekend. She earned the third leg on her Beginner Novice Obedience title, with a first place! The next day she earned her first leg in Rally Excellent B with a score of 95. Not good enough to place, but still a good score. She'll be on show hiatus until September, when we will compete to complete her Rally Excellent title.
