🐶 Training Tip Tuesday 🐶

Slow down to speed up.

When your dog is learning something new, it’s tempting to rush ahead — but taking things one step at a time builds a stronger foundation.

💡 Tip: Focus on one skill at a time and reward small successes. For example, before asking for a perfect “heel,” make sure your dog is comfortable just walking calmly beside you for a few steps.

Training isn’t about perfection — it’s about progress, understanding, and connection. When you slow down, your dog gains confidence, and learning becomes enjoyable for both of you.

✨ Patience today creates reliability tomorrow. ✨

🐾 Training Tip Tuesday! 🐾
Consistency is the secret ingredient to great dog training! ✨
Your dog learns best when everyone in the home uses the same cues, same tone, and same expectations.
💬 If you say “off,” but someone else says “down,” your dog gets confused — not stubborn.
✅ Pick one cue per behavior.
✅ Reward good choices.
✅ Repeat with patience and positivity!
And remember — dogs don’t understand “sometimes.”
If you don’t want your dog on the couch, that rule should be always, not just when guests come over. Clear, consistent boundaries help your dog feel secure and understand what’s expected every time. 💖

Thanks.

🐾💡 Training Tip Tuesday 💡🐾

Does your dog get distracted easily during training?

Here’s a simple way to set them up for success:

✨ Start small, then build up.

✨ Train in a quiet, low-distraction space first (like your living room). Once your pup is doing well, slowly add in more distractions—like practicing in the yard, then on a walk, and finally around other dogs or people.

✨Remember: training in real-life situations takes time and patience. Every successful step in a calm space is a building block for success in a busy environment. 🌟

Your dog isn’t being stubborn—they’re learning! Celebrate the little wins, and watch their confidence grow. 💛🐶

🎓🐾 Congratulations to Norman! 🐾🎓

Norman has officially graduated from training! 💫 We worked hard on building his recall, impulse control, leash skills, focus, and confidence—and he made such amazing progress.

It’s been incredible watching him grow into a more focused, confident, and well-mannered pup. 💕 We’re so proud of all the effort his family put in, too—teamwork makes all the difference!

Way to go, Norman! 🎉🐶👏

Lost dogs or cats which have been picked up by City Bylaw Services or the RCMP will not be released to their owners until all fines are paid in full, and your pet is licensed through DocuPet.

If your pet is picked up and has a license, we will attempt to reach you so you and your pet can be reunited right away. If an owner can’t be identified or contacted, the pet will be posted on the City’s website. Once the owner is located, they will be required to pay any boarding fees, fines and purchase a license if needed at City Hall before visiting our boarding facility to pick up your pet.
