Denver Dog Works: Camp Works Dog: Indy

July 28, 2011

Client’s Name: Beth L.

Dogs Name: “Indy”

City: Denver, CO

Breed: Potcake

Likes: playing!

Pet-Peeves: new situations, tight spaces, sudden movements

Favorite Toy: Stuffed Lamb

Favorite Treat: chewy rawhides

Favorite Walk: where ever we go!

Best Trick: Camp Counselor “Qyain” says it’s good that my mom found Michele at Denver Dog Works because she can help me figure out the world and not feel so scared. I don’t like it when people walk up behind or suddenly go in front of me too closely – I have nipped and bitten people on their ankles. Michele and Kyle are working to help me gain confidence.

Arrival Story: I first came to Denver Dog Works to learn how to handle anxious situations, boundaries, and to utilize obedience, manners, loose leash walking to be confident.

Bio: I am 1 years old and my mom traveled to the Turks and Caicos Islands to rescue me. You see I’m not a purebred or a pedigree. I’m fun-loving mutt. You can learn more about my breed by clicking on the breed tag above.

Dog Works Training Centers: Camp Works Dog: Milo

May 15, 2011

Camp Works Dog: MILO

Client’s Name: Amy and Tim E.

Dogs Name: “MILO”

City: Windsor, CO

Breed: Jack Russell Terrier

Likes: people watching

Pet-Peeves: being told what to do

Favorite Toy: ball

Favorite Treat: puperoni

Favorite Walk: Loves going to the people park and watching the kids play

Best Trick: Camp Counselor “Qyain” says even though I’m an old dog its not too late for me to learn a few tricks.

Arrival Story: I came to Denver Dog Works to learn how to be obedient, not jump and walk nicely on my leash.  I recently lost my loved one and moved in with her niece.  It’s been a difficult transition for me and they thought coming to Denver Dog Works would be good for me.  So far, I’m having lots of fun teaching the puppies and I’m getting used to walking nicely on leash and listening to commands.

Bio: I am 8 years old.  I was “loved” by my mom very much and was placed on a pedestal and could basically do as I pleased.  It was a dog’s life for sure.  In my new home, there’s more people and other pets so I must follow different rules.  Michele, my trainer, is making sure I’m having a good time and learning the basics.

City: Denver, CO

Breed: Golden Retriever

Likes: stability

Pet-Peeves: being left behind or excluded

Favorite Toy: haven’t discovered a favorite yet

Favorite Treat: basted bones and bully sticks

Favorite Walk: likes exploring new parks and areas

Best Trick: Camp Counselor “Qyain” says that it’s good that my rescuer Tara and new owners found Michele at Denver Dog Works.  Qyain says I’m a good dog and will make a great companion for my new family with young children.

Arrival Story: I’m at Denver Dog Works in the Camp Works program for three weeks.  I am here to learn manners, obedience, socialization, and leadership skills. I’m excited to be at school, there’s so many things I have never been exposed too.

Bio: I’m about 3 years old.  Tara with Rescue Tails rescued me from Wyoming where I was being left outdoors for too long.  I never really got attention from humans and never was allowed to play with many other dogs.  Being indoors is a little scary but there’s so many soft things. I can’t wait to finish Camp and show my new family what I can do.  I’m a good dog but I’m gonna be great!
