Other Services
At CK9 Training, I also offer various other animal services for those who don't have the time to do it themselves or just need a little extra help. I also work for those with other animals, such as horses, birds, and rodents. The services I offer include:
- Grooming- I will come to your house and groom your dog - bathe, trim or shave fur, clean ears, and brush teeth. You must provide your own supplies and equipment for this.
- Walking - I can take your dog on one to two walks daily if your schedule doesn't allow for it. Walks will last forty-five minutes to an hour, and I will bring my own waste bags.
- Yard Maintenance - I can come anywhere from one to three days a week to poop scoop, fill in holes that have been dug, clean up dog toys, and, if requested, mow the lawn.
- Kennel / Dog Run Cleaning - I will scrub down and disinfect your dogs kennel, run, or crate, and remove waste if present. Again, you must provide your own supplies.
- Other Cage Cleaning - I have owned many other pets besides dogs, including fish, birds, lizards, snakes, turtles, frogs, and various rodents. I can clean their cages and all the accessories in it for a nominal fee.
- New Dog Placement - Are you looking for a new addition to the family? I can help you, free of charge, find the perfect companion. I have over eight years in matching dogs with the right families. I will sit down with you and discuss things such as the energy level of your household, your personality type, what you are looking for in a dog, and, if you already have another pooch, making sure the new dog will be the temperament that best matches your dogs. I have had a 100% success rate in matching people with new dogs. I strictly do this only for shelter dogs. If you're looking for a purebred, you need not worry; there are hundreds of them just waiting for someone to love.
- Stable / Ranch Hand - I have also owned horses and was a manager at a stable with horses, goats, cows, pigs, chickens, ducks, and other barnyard animals. If you live in a place like this, I am more than happy to help with mucking, feeding, turning out horses, property maintenance and grooming. Pay is negotiable; I wouldn't mind volunteering at your barn or stable in exchange for being able to get in a couple hours of horseback riding a week.
- Nutrition Guidance - Many dog foods have unhealthy fillers and additives that can cause problems in your pet. Excess shedding, dandruff, itching, flatulence, and extreme tartar buildup can occur. I can take a look at what you're feeding and tell you if what you're feeding is healthy or not, and if it isn't I can recommend brands that are better for your dog. This is also free of charge.
