Where we become puppy family.

"Some people talk to animals. Not many listen though. That's the problem."
-A.A.Milne
Owner/ Head Trainer
Justin LaBarre
Professional dog wrangler, business juggler, and master of pretending he’s in charge (the dogs and Amber might disagree).
Momager
Amber LaBarre
Keeps Justin, the staff, and about 1,000 dog toys in line. If something gets done around here, it’s probably because Amber said so.

Manager
Ciara LaBarre Nance
The glue that holds the pack together. Expert at multitasking, scheduling, and knowing which dog likes belly rubs versus ear scratches.

Kennel Attendant
Steven LaBarre
From carrying food bags to walking energetic pups, Steven is the muscle and heart of the kennel. He keeps the routine running smooth and the dogs running happy, and he's always ready for another round of tug-of-war. His motto? “One more throw won’t hurt.”
