MONDAY
Start of a new week.
We took in Hank yesterday. He is a foster through Second Chance Rescue based out of NY. They wanted to pay for him to come to training with us as he has some serious dog aggression. We offered to comp 1/2 of the training and include overnight stays to help the rescue out with costs. We have to charge some for training just because we already have 3 other fosters in the house.
DAYTRAINING
Sookie is here and held a beautiful place this morning until Stripey kicked her off pic.twitter.com/DJDzocyeDJ Poor Sookie
Daisy + Cricket are also here for the day. They will get to have fun and cricket and I will start working on more obedience.
Birdie is also here. She is growing and doing awesome at all of her commands. I did realize at Puppy preschool that her Leash walking isn't awesome. We have done so much without the leash that I will need to get her on leash today and work with her.
Jason will get the 4 of them out to play while I head down to a lesson and we will do more training when I get back.
LESSONS
Riley - is having trouble being protective at their apartment.... lets go see....
Kramer is coming by this afternoon for some pointers on walking well on the leash.
Playgroup tonight at 7pm. Really hoping it won't rain until after 8 so the dogs can be outside

I know I haven't had time to update this blog.
Im thinking if I make it more of a journal and keep everyone up to date on the dogs we have for training and what we have going on it might be easier.
Yesterday/Sunday
8am Reactive Rover at Miners Ravine with Rosie, Rose, Dexter, Io and Bryndle. I was very proud they all seemed to be doing much better. We passed 3 dogs. 1 on leash with the owner. 1 Running with owner and none of my group reacted. YAY. And 2 Samoyeds walking with their owner. Very proud!
Agility 4 Fun with Bentley, Flanna and Io - great fun brough Ritter out too and he did awesome.
Agility week for Combo Class - Elsa, Kinsey, Diego and Bryndle they all did awesome for their 1st time. Kinsey was the most confident about the Teeter Totter.
Lesson with 4 dogs after in Auburn https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=608211039227662&set=a.239896419392461.53602.187585221290248&type=1&theater¬if_t=like
Great dogs learning Place and owners learning how to walk all 4 together. Really wish I had my phone charged and was able to get a pic of her walking all 4. Great leash handling.
Ended the day with a new client lesson "Johnny" a 10month old Newfie.
He will be a lot of fun.

Water Play in Roseville area
It's summer time where do you take your dog to play in the water?
Where are good places to cool down with your pup?
What should I worry about or watch out for?
....
There are lots of great water places for your pup but I want to discuss a few other things 1st.
Warnings and things to be careful of:
PLEASE be respectful of others! Dogs are being banned at many locations all over because owners aren't being responsible.
Make sure to
Now.. where to go?
Hidden Falls in Auburn off of Mears Place rd - Great little swimming hole but if you can go on a weekday it gets packed on the weekends. Not so hidden anymore.
Folsom Lake again on the weekdays are better even in the evenings after work is nicer than a packed weekend. Lots of entrances. Granite Bay, Beals, Folsom Point etc.
Dry Creek Trail is right near Walegra and PFE rd. great little creek runs along most of the trail nice to cool off your pup not enough water for a full swim though.
Sacramento River
American River
Rollins Lake up towards Colfax. Nice Lake - great for boating but they charge $3 a dog.
Where do you take your dogs in the area?
Welcome all input.

Warnings and things to be careful of:
- Leptospirosis read more about it here Has your dog has the vaccine?
- Giardia is very common around here in any water that isn't "fresh". Here is more info on giardia.
- Rattlesnakes like to hang out on the same warm rocks by the beach that you and your dog like to lay on so just watch out for them. Rattlesnake Aversion Training is available by THIS company. Great option to help reduce the chance of your dog running into one.
- Horses - there are lots of horse trails around our area and it is not uncommon to come across a horse on most trails.
PLEASE be respectful of others! Dogs are being banned at many locations all over because owners aren't being responsible.
Make sure to
- Pick up your dogs poop and dispose of it properly
- Don't allow your dog to run up to another dog or person. Let them come ask you or you can ask but not while your dog is 1/2 way there.
- Keep your dog under control. You can buy 20 - 30 - 40 ft long lines :)
