• “I am rambunctious and playful. I love you run and chase. My goal in life is to jump to the moon. So I hope and jump all day“

  — Andreah S.

• “Nakia is a 4.5 year old Belgian Malinois. She was recused from TJ around 7 months old. I am her 3rd (and final!) home. She has been with me since she was 11 months old. She initially had low confidence and dog/loud noise reactivity when I first got her that has since almost entirely resolved. She’s completed a full advanced off lease board and train program as well as regular and on going training sessions. Shes well mannered, very sweet, and has come leaps and bounds from when I first got her. Now, we’re using sniff spots to help build my confidence in off leash handling skills and strengthen our bond while providing her freedom and play. She’s an amazing dog and I’m so proud of her progress!“

  — Katie K.

• “I am a fun loving girl who likes anything to do with water and a good stick. I always think I am wet wet but sometimes I am dry and just want to rub myself on the ground or a towel. I am very talkative…but no one seems to listen to me!!“
