THE Inaugural Class!

No phone, no lights, no motor car. Not a single luxury. Like Robinson Crusoe, as primitive as can be!!! Gilligan would love it!!

Check out the photos from our Inaugural Class at Taming the Wild Side!

Looking good Keegan, Glacier and Madison!!

Clicker Training for Dinosaurs?!?

SURE!  Why not?  Well ... besides the fact that clickers weren't invented then! 

Terri gets a bit ambitious with the clicker training!

The Building is UP!

The building is almost complete!  We are waiting on the big doors for the side entrance and for the plumber and electrician to come out to do their part.  We'll plan an Open House ... umm ... Open Building soon, so everyone can come out and see YOUR new training facility!  Thanks for sticking with us during this transition period.
