Unique Training for Cute Boxer Puppies

November 16, 2010Deaf Boxer Puppy On Lead

John and Maria Harrington called with a request to aid them in the basic obedience of their new boxer puppies.  That in itself was not too surprising, but the puppies were.  Kayla and Seamus turned out to be two beautiful white boxer puppies.

Upcoming New Class

Nose Work Classes

Saturdays, January 8 – February 9, 1 1/2 hours each class

Come try out the exciting new sport of Nose Work.  Nose work gives your dog an opportunity to use his excellent ability to detect and hunt down scents. It is great fun for your dog and helps build confidence and problem solving abilities while burning lots of physical and mental energy. At the Sniff-In each dog will be given the opportunity to try nose work by hunting for their favorite treat. Let your dog show you how it is done! Bring your dog on a 6 foot leash (no flexis) and treats. Click here to learn more!
