Week 8 for Nova:
Well here we are at the end. It has been an emotional rollercoaster between us and here we are again just a little misty eyed that our bundle of joy is leaving. Nova has melted every ones heart here. She is a rockstar and we love her so much, her growth since she has been here is amazing. When she got here she was so scared she wouldn’t even eat or even go potty. Now she lives for all the intention. Her cgc went good this week. I was happy, it wasn’t perfect but I’m not perfect. I was very proud of her. She is going to make a great addition to any home. She has made us all grow!!!
Journal entry march 2
Cgc test today. Went good, not perfect but awesome compared to where we started from. Nova is a very smart dog and she enjoys going through her commands. She makes it easy.

Weekly Summary: 6
This week we worked on preparing Thor for his final Canine Good Citizen (CGC) test.
He did very good in all the commands that he usually struggled with like; standing still for inspection, and returning to the heel position on recalls. The entire team has done very well getting him ready as he did pass with the score of 10/10. Thor has been such a great dog showing no signs of aggression and remaining a low energy pet. He will be the perfect addition to any family.
Daily Journal Entry:
Today Thor got some overtime work with the few commands he still struggles with. It has been rainy this week and he hasn’t had a chance to get out and run so it may be some of that also. He went for his first side by side ride and absolutely loved it​​

WEEKLY SUMMARY: WEEK SIX
The team has done such a great job with Arrow this week! It is so easy to tell that everyone has been on the same page while Arrow has been here with us another round and they have definitely worked hard to care for his well-being as well as his future! This weekend we had CGC’s and Arrow didn’t do as well as I hoped he would, but needless to say he did just fine and is still the happiest, hardworking boy! We spent tons of time this week continuing to perform tricks with Arrow and giving him tons of time to be a dog and get all of his energy out! He continues to play just fine with Boulder (when Boulder is in the mood to be harassed) and never misses a day without his play sessions in the water!
DAILY JOURNAL: 6/7/25
Today we had CGC’s and Arrow didn’t do as hot as I was hoping he would! This morning Arrow had tons of energy and just wanted to go go go and check everyone and everything out which is always fun and great, testing or not! Arrow kept sitting during his stand for CGC #3 so since he wasn’t performing I called it a fail for that moment and went on with the test. Arrow did fine for everything else, but he wasn’t totally attentive and engaged during the entire test which is fine because he still performed well! For CGC #8 dog on dog, Arrow kept trying to break and get to Boulder which was shutting Boulder down, so I ended that test with a fail as well since he couldn’t remain polite and calm for even a third attempt.

Weekly Summary Week 8 :
​
FINAL WEEKLY JOURNAL : 8/10/25
This week we have worked on some new tricks for Magic. He is food motivated and smart which makes this process go very smoothly. It has been so much fun spending time with this dog he is so interested and curious of everything around him. Magic has a lot of loving energy and is happy to be around people and gets very excited. Magic has done so well on his CGC commands as well as others. He is really picking up on everything as far as commands go and will continue to keep on learning. I would recommend this dog to a Family with older children, couple or a Single person. I have found that Magic needs a one pet owner due to him not being able to play well with other dogs. Magic does not resource guard at all and will gladly give you his toy or bone if you take it. We are very proud of Magic and have enjoyed watching his transformation in the program.

​
WEEKLY UPDATE: WEEK SEVEN
Conga excelled here at PAWS, all his training has added up to him being CGC compliant. He passed his test with flying colors! Conga has spent the last few days getting ready for his test and learning some new tricks. We are excited to reveal those in coming videos. Conga is going to make some family very happy some day. When he sees his people his whole body gets to wagging and you just know he loves you.
DAILY JOURNAL: 11/8/25
Today we worked on Conga obeying commands while on lead without treats. The way we build up that obedience is by asking a few commands of him while praising him to encourage him to keep it up, then after he completes a few commands we release him and give him some food in a bowl. Not much, but it encourages him to keep up. As we build on this we expect more but also reward more. The end goal is that he eats from a bowl at his new home but still obeys commands.

​
WEEKLY UPDATE: WEEK 7
Throughout this week we have been using much less kibble throughout each day, focusing on using praise and bowl feeding. We are getting prepared for Roxy’s final CGC test before she leaves our program. Roxy has been doing excellent with her stand and inspections, duration and distance commands, as well as focused heeling. I anticipate that she will have a successful final CGC test!
DAILY JOURNAL: 11/29/25 SAT.
Today we had Roxy’s final CGC test and she did great!! She was attentive and focused, although she seemed a little bit lethargic she still performed well. The only minor issues during the test were she had to be called twice for test seven: coming when called, and during test nine: reaction to distractions, she was very curious about the bottle and pulled towards the distraction. Overall she had a great performance and I am proud of the work the team has put in with Roxy and how far she has come!

Summer

CGC VIDEO! (coming soon!)
​
​
Summer did an excellent job at her CGCs. When you watch the video you will notice that she broke on the first command but this was actually a good thing. Summer was so scared when she first got here and wouldn’t go up to anyone. Her breaking and walking towards someone while showing signs of friendliness is awesome. Summer continues to improve but will always struggle with setbacks due to her trauma. This girl needs lots of love and compassion. If you focus on making her feel secure, loved, and comforted she will start really bonding with you. She will need lots of patience when you first adopt her because she will be very nervous and scared. Summer knows her commands but just chooses when to listen based on her anxiety to external stimulus. She is a wonderful dog though and you will not be disappointed.

CGC VIDEO! (coming soon!)
Week 7
Well this was the week we have been working toward. Harley took her final CGC and the end of this week. Harley did pretty well. It was in a strange environment for her and she did have a little trouble focusing which we have been battling the whole time but that is just her “puppy brain”. She knows all her commands and will execute them when you have her attention she is just so curious about everything. This is what has made Harley such a fun dog to work with. Her curiosity and energy have made training and play time so much fun! Harley not only had a good time but her trainers had fun working with her. Then after she was all worked out and played out Harley loves to just sit and be loved on. She is going to be missed by everyone that came in contact with her but she is going to be a great pet for some lucky person or family.
11-27-25
So Harley did her final CGC today and she did pretty well. It was held in the school and Harley had never been in there before so she was super curious about the new environment and all the new smells so she had some trouble staying focused but all in all she did well and will make an awesome pet for some lucky person!
