Katrina’s New Pack Member

By DogTech | Published: June 8, 2011

Katrina Boyd, our DogTech Puppy School and Group Dog trainer on Sydney’s Northern Beaches, has added a new member to her pack! The ten-week-old American (possibly Pit) Staffy was dumped last week in a box outside a vet. Katrina rescued the pup from the possibility of being put down, introduced her to her family and named her ‘Portia’.

Katrina has enjoyed training the new addition, who is responding really well and has been quite easy to train. Her two dogs, Ruby and Jessie, have been great with Portia and very good role models. Katrina is thrilled to now have what she has always wished for: three dogs––one of which is a Staffy!

Shelby’s Lucky Day

By DogTech | Published: June 3, 2011

Troy Fitzgerald, our DogTech Gold Coast dog training instructor, called in at the Logan Pound to talk to the owners.  While he was there he was walking through the puppy enclosure when he spotted a beautiful little Staffy X, 10 weeks old.  She had apparently been abandoned in the Springwood Shopping Centre and given up to the pound.  Troy took one look at those gorgeous eyes and just had to take her home with him!  He has named her Shelby and we consider she won the ‘doggie lotto’ that day!
