Breast Cancer Awareness Month & The Strength Collar

October is Breast Cancer Awareness month. And while breast cancer doesn't necessary have anything directly to do with dogs, cancer in general affects or has affected just about everyone you will every meet. This year has been wonderful, but also really personally painful for our family. We have lost both people and pets very close to our hearts, just as we have known many people who have also lost loved ones in 2013.

Crazy Rebels is a dog company with a deeply caring and compassionate foundation of real people behind it. If we have learned anything from dogs it is that a little love can go a long way. So this month we honor and recognize those fighting, remembering, celebrating, laughing, loving, crying, and just being. Together we want to celebrate life, and mourn loss. 

The all new Strength Collar was crafted as just that, a symbol of strength. This collar is your dog's quiet badge of courage to wear with pride for whatever you, or they, may be going through. Check out the Strength Collar and the Strength Sticker!

The beautiful woman (in the picture below) is a mother, a daughter, a sister, a grandmother, a first grade school teacher, a friend, and a fighter. And because of some pretty amazing specialists, she is also a survivor. She fought and beat breast cancer, and is all the more stronger because of it. She is a hero to many, and loved by everyone who knows her. She is our mom.  And we are merely thankful, for her life. Here's to Breast Cancer Awareness Month!

Take a moment to hug those you love. 

 

Misunderstood: Educating to End BSL

Announcing the 2013 limited edition Pitbull Awareness print and sticker: Misunderstood by Crazy Rebels.

From ignorance hate grows. People fear what they do not know or do not understand, and by this same reasoning we as humans have failed the beloved Pitbull breed. 

October is Pitbull Awareness Month, so we are doing our part to help spread knowledge to rebrand the Pitbull. Pitbull refers to the outward appearance and the physical characteristics of a specific breed, not the personality or overall demeanor of the dog. Yet Breed Specific Legislation states that these dogs can be banned, persecuted, confiscated, and even put-down simply because of their breed. This month in specific we seek to inform people that Pitbulls are misunderstood, not misbehaving. 

Together we can share the message and help to End BSL. The only way to create change, is to do something to cause it. So let's come together and educate that Pitbulls are dogs with big hearts just like every other furry four-legged friend. Support the cause, spread the word.

NEW PRODUCT: Protect and Serve Collar Now Available

The Protect and Serve Collar is crafted using the highest quality materials to honor all those, both human and canine, who dedicate their lives to protecting and serving others. The bold simplicity of this collar features the Protect and Serve metal crest, sturdy hardware, and the finest latigo leather. 

This collar was made for dogs who serve and also for family dog’s to proudly honor someone they know who serves in law enforcement.

 We had the privilege to observe first hand the incredible bond between SWAT / K9 Officer Sean Lawlor and his amazing police service dog, Frankie.  Frankie, a Dutch Shepherd, was first trained and assessed overseas before being brought to California, where he received the second phase of his training and endorsement for official police work. He was trained in Dutch and now courageously works along side his owner and partner, Officer Lawlor. 

Frankie responds to Officer Lawlor with the utmost respect and attention, always ready to work at a moments notice. When he’s off duty from hunting down criminals, Frankie is simply the friendliest dog who would love nothing more than to fetch his favorite fire hose toy. Police Service Dog, Frankie wears the Protect and Serve collar with pride. Crazy Rebels thanks you for your service!

Concentration Level: Expert

 

"Concentration comes out of a combination of confidence and hunger." - Arnold Palmer

We are always challenging our dogs to increased levels of patience. Of course with increased patience, comes greater reward. Our photo shoots sometimes involve far fetched ideas which can take multiple attempts to accomplish, we have found that the key is to maintain optimum patience and a super calm demeanor. When we are relaxed, our dogs remain at ease as well. We use lots of praise and positive reinforcement to teach the behavior we are looking for, and when our dogs make it happen they are overwhelmed with a jackpot of treats!

Here's a little behind the scenes look at Dakoda's feat, and the feast that followed. All we asked was that she balance a Jenga like stack of 41 treats on her head for a nano second, and believe it or not she nailed the shot on the first try. She was more than happy to help clean up after the inevitable topple of treats.

What is your dogs proudest trick?
