| We at Hardly Dangerous Kennels take our dogs seriously. The titles that our dogs hold should speak for themselves, from therapy work to protectionwork and everything in between. We also take our knowledge of the breed, and dogs in general, very seriously. Polly is very involved in the dog world, working not only our dogs but helping others also. She has over 25 years of canine experience and has put many titles on her own dogs. Lisa has been working dogs for over 4 years and has started titleing our dogs. In 2008, we opened Canine Solutions in Beaver Dam. Canine Solutions is a training facility that encompasses many different venues of the dog world. Basic Obedience is just a start at Canine Solutions, along with Advance Obedience, Puppy Kindergarten, Conformation, Tracking and Personal Protection. Our true belief is that through obedience you can do just about anything with your dog. We feel so strongly about obedience training that any puppy bought from Hardly Dangerous Kennels receives free lifetime training.
