Opportunity to come, observe, ask questions and learn Friday, Saturday or Sunday at our monthly IGP training workshop group.đŸ€“
Then work your own dog on Tuesday and Wednesday. 👊

If you are a beginner, or if you want to get started but not sure what to do, this is also for you.

Diamond’s smart way of training protection will get you seeing your dog in a different light in just a couple of days and will get your mind exploded! Christina’s sharp judge's eye and knowledge of the rules will get you a ton of ideas for training and trial prep so that you will go home with lots of tips to apply to your own training!

Canine Fitness is good for all dogs. Think of it as Pilates for people. It creates flexibility, body awareness, builds stamina, endurance and strength. The inflatable equipment makes the dogs balance building muscle and strengthening the core all while connecting the brain and the body.

You may have heard us mention IGP training before, but maybe you’re not exactly sure what it is. In this series, we’re breaking it down for you. IGP is the most complex and prestigious canine sport today, involving 3 phases - tracking , obedience and protection, with all 3 disciplines highlighting the highest level of teamwork built thru training, control, and dogs emotions showcasing the relationship. Formerly known as Schutzhund (translates ""protection dog"" in German), it originated over 100 years ago in Germany and was used as a selective breed test for German Shepherd. Today it has evolved into an international competitive sport for trainers and their talented dogs. It requires commitment, dedication, and talent on both ends of the leash and it becomes a life passion for people all over the world. Why is it so addictive - I think because the relationships it builds with our canine partners and other IGP enthusiasts are truly special...

One of those days that reminds you why you show up đŸŸ

Today’s Mutt Strutt with the Venice Lions Club brought the community together to support a local veteran in receiving a service dog, and it was such a meaningful event to be part of.

From the walk to the agility demos and all the smiles in between, the heart behind this fundraiser was undeniable. Puppy She-Ra came to participate and was an absolute star ⭐

So grateful to support the cause.

Today we’re incredibly proud.

Bravo’s grandson is just 1 year old and already certified in narcotics detection, currently training for dual-purpose K9 work. This is exactly what true working dogs are meant to do.

This is why genetics matter. Strong, stable dogs don’t happen by accident. They are purpose-bred with the right drives, nerves, structure, and work ethic to succeed—both in IGP and in real-world service. Sport and real life are not separate when the foundation is correct.

The legacy of D&C’s Bravo continues, and it’s powerful to see that foundation being carried forward at such a young age. This is what responsible breeding looks like: dogs built to work, think, and handle real pressure.

Faces, location, and identifying details on the police vehicle have been intentionally obscured for safety.

Bred by @ Sue Danke-phenomenal work and an incredible example of what strong breeding programs produce.
