November Newsletter

I love Fall!!  I love the cool weather, the color of the trees and the leaves everywhere.  I am so excited about this time of year and that Thanksgiving, my favorite holiday is right around the corner.  Of course, classes will slow down a bit until after the first of the year, but then we will be taking off with a lot of fun, new cool stuff!

DOG OF THE MONTH

 Sisters Maggie Mae and Winnie
 

 Maggie Mae (the brown one) and Winnie (the white one) are sisters belonging to a family of dog lovers!  The Whelans, Carl Smith and his niece Kathie are all involved in the love, care and attention of these girls!  Both have attended our puppy classes, beginning class and are small dog play group regulars!  We love these girls and are so happy to have them in the Braveheart family!

Introduction to K9 Nose Work, San Lorenzo, 1/12/12, 6:00-7:30pm, $150
Dogs have an amazing sense of smell and a natural desire to hunt. This class focuses on teaching you how to encourage and develop your dog's natural scenting abilities by using their desire to hunt and their love of toys, food and exercise. It's a great class for your dog to have fun, build confidence and burn lots of mental and physical energy and to find out just how good is your dog's nose. High food or toy motivation is beneficial for this class.  Dogs must be able to handle confinement in a crate away from handlers.

Note: Castro Valley January class schedule is tentative, but will be confirmed soon.
