The Rise of Pop-Up Shops**
In recent years, pop-up shops have become increasingly popular as a way for businesses to showcase their products and connect with customers in a unique and engaging way. These temporary retail spaces offer a chance for entrepreneurs to test the waters, experiment with new ideas, and build brand awareness without the long-term commitment of a traditional storefront.
A Passion Project**
For Jessica Oxer, the founder of Behr’s Boutique, the pop-up shop is more than just a business venture – it’s a labor of love. Oxer founded the boutique during the pandemic, when she was struggling to find quality items and accessories for her adopted dog. “We had a struggle finding quality items and accessories,” Oxer recalls.

The Thrill of Agility Training
Agility training is a physically demanding and mentally stimulating activity that challenges dogs to navigate obstacles and work together with their owners. The sport requires a strong bond between dog and handler, as well as a deep understanding of canine behavior and body language. Agility training is not just about physical exercise; it’s also about building trust, communication, and problem-solving skills. Key elements of agility training include: + Weave poles: dogs weave in and out of poles to improve their agility and speed. + Tunnels: dogs navigate through tunnels to test their endurance and focus. + Jumps: dogs jump over hurdles to build their confidence and coordination. + Contact obstacles: dogs climb over walls, weave through bars, and balance on narrow surfaces to challenge their physical abilities.
