October Newsletter

October already??  That doesn't seem possible, but it's true!  It's actually okay with me because I love Fall. Autumn is my favorite time of year.  I am excited to have a full schedule this fall and will be offering some classes well into December to keep everyone busy and enjoying their dog time.

DOG OF THE MONTH



Savannah has been a Braveheart student since she was a tiny puppy!  She is a sweet, loving pittie girl who belongs to Vivi and Luis!  Since growing up Savannah has done several of our classes and is always a big star at our annual Howl-o-Ween Party!
