We are also proud of our two Samoyed therapy dogs. We have 5 dogs registered with the AKC as Canine Good Citizens. All of our other mushers or companions and rescues enjoy the titles of Timbermist dogs. We believe each dog, whether homebred or one of our many rescues, benefits from an extensive socialization and training program. Positive reinforcement is the key behind a well-trained, socialized and happy dog.
Nutrition is a very important component to our wellness program.
We believe the world has too many unwanted animals. All our dogs except our champions and upcoming show winners are spayed or neutered. Rescued dogs find new families that will accept the strict contract that accompanies the dog when they leave our kennel. These rescues are tracked for the rest of their lives. If their new home does not work out, they return to Timbermist.
