The PEAK DOGS are helping Blazer Success!!

Tuesday we went to Spotswood High School for our second visit...we played bowling with Doggies... We had TEAM CHEETAH and TEAM VIXEN...they had to work with there dog and strategize how to get their dog to knock down as many pins as possible on their frame.  They practiced with a couple of pins then we bowled 5 frames apiece....the kids couldn't touch the dog or the pins...  TEAM VIXEN  won by 1 point...very close! Proud of the kids for coming up with the strategies that they did and working together and encouraging their dog to do what they wanted..

Too Legit to Quit!!!

Yesterday we got our official 501(c)3 nonprofit approval letter in the mail....I am so excited about this  piece of the puzzle fitting into place...I guess now the process of writing grants and proposals start!

The PEAK Dogs go to the Kids Book Festival!

Last weekend, The PEAK Dogs and I had the chance to be a part of the the WVPTs Kids Book Festival at the fairgrounds ...

We had a great time talking to people and introducing them to our program. The girls were great and stayed in the x-pen, which became the unofficial kissing booth!

 

We had a nice little spot by the door...

Fun at the 1st annual PEAK DOG challenge event...

Yesterday was the the big day...the 1st annual PEAK DOG challenge event.  The day was perfect weather and everyone had fun... We had 18 challenge station for dog and handler teams and 18 kids only challenge stations...we had pizza, water and candy bars for sale...raffle prizes and a silent auction.  BOOKS A MILLION even came and set up a booth where sales benefited the program.  So far we raised $395 for the program and hope to get a bit more with the silent auction items and proceeds from BAM sales...I will also have candy bars for sale at the next few trials...



Thanks to everyone that came out to play with there dogs and helped set up or pack up...Already thinking about how to make it bigger and better for next year....Vixen says fundraising is exhausting!

Let's Lick Bullying!

Sorry it took me so long to post about this...I was hoping that someone had taken a picture at the event, but they didn't...A couple of weeks ago the girls and I presented " Let's Lick Bullying" at Broadway Presbyterian Church. It was a small group, but was very engaged and had a lot of personal experiences to share...it was really great to have the students and there parents open up and talk about what's going on in the schools and steps that are or are not being taken, along with suggestions on how to improve the situation.  I hope we have more presentations like this and have a chance to start to really making a difference in these kids lives.

A busy week for the PEAK dogs...

On Fri the PEAK dogs and I loaded up out stuff and headed out to Ottobine elementary school for career day... We demoed in agility, tricks, nosework and even a little freestyle... The kids loved it and Cheetah and Vixen did too...

On Saturday, we headed over to Charlottesville to demo in nosework for to kick off the doggie Easter egg hunt...sponsored but Natural Pet Esstenials.  They were nice enough to let us set up a display table and I got to talk a little bit about the program...

I really need to get more pictures for future events....I will update if anyone else took some.

PS....I NEED two board members...ASAP.!!!!!
