Riley loves doing agility at Gemini Dogs!

We received some video of Leeann K. and Riley taken during a recent agility class. Leeann writes:

Riley just wanted to show everyone how much he enjoys training in agility with Carolyn.

He is just so happy and having a great time even when I make mistakes in my handling.

Watch the clip and get a free handling tip! Then learn more tips like this at our Agility 101 workshop.

I'm a Gemini Dog Valentine!

Will you be my doggie Valentine?

Daycare staffer Sarah J. sent in this photo of her doggie Valentine, TJ.

TJ is a very special 5-year old yellow Lab who lives at the Second Chance Animal Shelter and is part of the Becker College animal program. Sarah takes JT to obedience classes at Gemini Dogs and writes, "She's my buddy!"

Send us a photo of your favorite Gemini Dogs Valentine and we'll feature him or her on the Bark Blog! Email John and be sure to include your name, your dog's name, and any special extra info!

A few of our boarding guests were lucky enough to take advantage of the very brief appearance by the sun Saturday to pose for the camera with daycare staffer, Shawn. Say cheese (and squint!).
