Inquiring minds what to know!
We love happy dogs and we want your dog to be happy too! Do you know that dogs laugh when they're with a close friend?
This is the sound of "dog laughter". Yes, we have the science to help us recognize that those high pitched squeals and seemingly silent pants (which aren't silent, but beyond our level are hearing) are a form of laughter shared between dogs who enjoy each other's company.
Remember to enjoy the little things and keep your training fun!

In lieu of a vaccination you may provide us with a copy of a veterinary titer or a waiver letter from your veterinarian on veterinary letterhead stating that your dog does not need specific vaccines.

Do you know the signs and symptoms of bloat? (Otherwise known as Gastric Dilation Volvulus.) GDV occurs when a dog's stomach fills with gas, food, or fluid and subsequently twists. GDV develops without warning and can progress quickly. It is always an emergency. Stomach distension alone is referred to as a “simple bloat”, or dilatation.
When caught early, surgery can save your dog's life. Delayed treatment is deadly.
If you believe your dog has bloat, head directly to the ER! DO NOT WAIT!

Most common behavior problems occur when young dogs are given too much freedom too soon! Lack of supervision causes bored dogs to seek their own outlet for oral satisfaction. Age appropriate exercise also helps dogs relax. Leave It & Trade should also be practiced.
