Summer 2025

Mother and daughter through the dirty lens 

Kimber and her friend Hana the Newfie got their

Bark Ranger Badges 

You can get these at many national parks and maybe some state parks.  To get one, you have to show that your dog has good trail manners on leash. 

We provided pictures and videos of the girls on leash showing off their manners. 

** We only let them off leash when there is no one around. We are always respectful of other people and animals. 

Meet Taiga. 10 mo old and beautiful. 

His owner was highly allergic and he needed to be rehomed so we took him in. 

When introducing a new dog to a "pack" it must be done slowly. First, he needs to be by himself and given time to adjust, learn the sounds, smells and everything around him. When he settles down to that, then one dog at a time. Since he is a maturing male, he will only be introduced to the girls who are safe, not close to being in heat. This is a challenging time since most of the girls are in or just out of heat. He has not been exposed to this so his hormones are a little out of control, but we are making fast progress at controlling them. He is about the same age as Kimber so they will be buddies. 

The first mistake people make when introducing an adult dog to a family, is not giving the dog time to quietly and slowly adjust.
