The Princess and the Pom

January 26, 2021 by Deborah Charlap

Grizzle the little black Pomeranian came to us for a Board & Train program in 2016. After years away from Arizona, his people moved to Phoenix and called with the joyful news that they are happily married and the new parents of another Pomeranian! (Little sister Poppy completed her puppy and adult Board & Train programs in 2020.) Here are Lilith and Kyle’s amazing wedding photos, starring the inimitable Grizzle. 

 

 

Hey Deb,

Here he is! He definitely could NOT have done this before training. He was able to walk the aisle with little to no pulling, and he stayed totally quiet through the whole ceremony and didn’t try to go to anyone. He just stayed with my friends who walked him down and sat quietly even though he had never met them before! After the ceremony he posed for pictures and was still a champ. He actually flew to Vegas from Dallas, stayed in a new boarding facility for 4 days, did our wedding, and flew home to Dallas with no major problems!

It was so amazing, and it’s all thanks to you and Michael!

— Lilith & Kyle

 

Who’s a good dog? Client emails make us smile!

January 25, 2021 by Deborah Charlap

When we send dogs home from Board & Train, we often feel a bit of loss. Each dog becomes a part of our family for the three to five weeks they live with us. Emails and texts like this one absolutely make our day. They remind us why we pour our hearts and hard work into each dog and their people — and gives us a little glimpse of our ripple effect out in the world. 
Michael,
We rarely eat out, but I couldn’t resist seeing how Molly would do, so I tried it today. Two parked horses, people walking by, a dog that came up and snooted our girl from behind, more people walking by, two loud excavating trucks rumbled past… We encountered a little bit of everything!
Molly was wonderful. Yes, she stood up a few times, but I put her right back on a ‘Down’. For most of our time there, she was facing the horses. And when the horses’ humans were ready to leave, I stood up and Molly and I faced the curb to watch them together. They took quite a bit of time turning their horses around parallel to the curb, then getting on, then waiting for car traffic to pass. That was fun. But now Molly wants a horse.
When the horses were gone, we walked up one side of Old Town and down the other.  She was right beside me, neither ahead, nor lagging.
Who’s a good dog?
We’ll meet after Thanksgiving and we’ll look forward to learning more from the maestro.
— Joy
