Yucky WET weekend!
Louie and the rest of our guests didn’t seem to notice! 😬

This was just so odd. The dogs had been following this bright yellow moth around the yard for some time. Only Stanley wasn’t interested in it. Perhaps that’s why it chose him to hitch a ride on?! 😊

Wow! The summer sure seems to be going by so quickly!
We have just a few things to remind clients who have previously used our services and to share with new and/or potential clients.
1. Please DO NOT approach any of the fenced areas when attending our facility even if your OWN dog is within the fenced area. Re-directing excitement to see their own to another dog can quickly become a very unsafe situation for the dogs and staff that are interacting with your dog.
2. If you are trying to book a reservation and you are not able to select a specific date and/or time to pick up or drop off your pet, it is because we are NOT OPEN during the time you are trying to select on that particular date. Please refer to our website, Paw Partner App, Google, and page, for our hours of operation. We have done our very best to ensure they are communicated to you on every available platform as well as provided explanations for our hours on the FAQ page of our website.
3. If you could please try to provide a reasonably sized plastic container for your dog's food for the duration of their reservation that would be greatly appreciated. Bringing us a 20lb bag of dog food for your 30lb dog for 3-days is a bit unreasonable. Imagine trying to store 20, 20lb bags of dog food in your kitchen! Not to mention trying to control the buffet offered to the mice which we are constantly trying to keep under control!
4. Dogs are to remain in the vehicle until you have checked in with us and we have advised you to bring your dog inside. We have MANY dogs visiting our facility this time of year, which means we are exercising many dogs while people are coming and going. Not all of our guests are friendly and letting your dog out of the vehicle without knowing if it is safe to do so, puts EVERYONE at risk!
5. We are a family run business, we have just one staff member who works with us. We would really appreciate if you tried to respect our business hours. Perhaps think about your own dog's response to someone knocking on your dog unexpectedly, and then times that by 20 dogs! And can you imagine living next door to those 20-plus dogs! We have a great relationship with our community along Maple Hill Road, and we make great efforts to maintain this relationship to ensure we can continue to offer our services to you and your dog(s)!

We look forwarding to see you all, if we haven't yet!
We'd also like to acknowledge all the wonderful reviews from our clients!
Thank You!

Finally I was able to pick a few images from the NUMEROUS images taken by Kevin Corbitt while we were attending both the March and May 2024 confirmation shows with the HAMPTON ROADS KENNEL CLUB in Courtland Virginia.
Loxley obtained Reserve Best in Show in May, earning his first Champion Title!
So his registered name on UKC docments;
CH UWP N-Loxley Riona Centrum SPOT

And Gertie and I both just would like to say, thus far the most helpful, inviting and friendly people we have met at the events in the USA have been from the HAMPTON ROADS KENNEL CLUB. So THANK YOU for making our first experiences, GREAT memories!

Anyone interested in introducing their pups to a sport that any dog can do, I highly recommend you check out this seminar coming up soon in Kingston and just before the upcoming weight pull event in August also being held in Kingston.

Join us for some weight pull fun in Kingston!

Only a dog can make one moment so heartbreaking 💔 and at the same time so happy 🥰…
❤️ Miss Molly ❤️

These lady’s are proving that age is really just a number!
Emmy, GSD 14.5-years old, 30-minute walk around Kemptville.
Molly, Lab 10+-years old, 30-minute swim at MHCC.
They have their challenges but they still enjoy the best life any dog could ask for!
They have some pretty GREAT Moms!

What does your dog do when you leave? Clearly Loxley voices his dislike! Indy loves to cool off at the half way point of our walk.
Big dog vs Little dog and the vibrating squealing toy! 😂
Wilson where did you hide the ball.. in your mouth! 😊 And his day would not be the best without his playmate Pogo!
Phoebe just taking a break. 🥰
Piper likes water but not the clean pool water! Puddles are much better! 😉
Cool off with Zamboni snow from the ice pads. 🥶
And just relaxing this morning in the sun before the heat. 😴

Cool off in the creek during morning walk, then drive through the countryside to CRS Mobile Rehab for shockwave & acupuncture therapy, and finish off the day with my best road buddy Gibbs. 🥰

What are you doing this weekend with your dog?
Get out there and try something NEW!
Loxley, Gertie and I are back in Courtland, Virginia for the Hampton Roads Kennel Club Weight Pull & Conformation Show.
Pulling on rails for the first time and in much warmer weather than what we’ve had at home… 🤞

Loxley and Harvey, always a reason to take a picture.
Enjoying the Brockville waterfront, they clearly enjoy sharing MY bed, always showing us their large mouths, and doing some conditioning. 🥰

04/26/2024

Keeping up is hard! ☹️
But way to go Wilson! 🥰

04/13/2024

And we have arrived at our rental in White Pigeon Michigan for the weight pulls and conformation shows in Shipshewana Indiana (not far from our rental).
Lox didn’t think too much of the U-Haul trailer chasing the Land Rover so darn close (it was attached)! Lol!
Tried to take a picture of this tree I’d like, he doesn’t look guilty at all of photo-bombing my shot!
Couldn’t go for a walk along the lake without his green duckie! 🤦‍♂️
Now rest before the events begin tomorrow morning! 😴

Such a good swimmer at the fine age of 15-years. Happy Birthday!

03/23/2024

This dog… he’s my everything! How could he not be when you see his heart, determination, and absolute admiration for me! We are gonna have so much more fun experiences with our upcoming weight pull events, Indiana in April, Virginia in May, and Michigan in June!

Loxley and Harvey doing great with balance on the large “peanut” shaped ball. Important to make sure the ball is stable in position so it doesn’t move. Some tasty treats and willing pups.
Building hind leg and core muscles for Loxley is our goal.
For Harvey we just want to continue to strengthen and maintain mobility after having 2-TPLO surgeries (2021-02, 2022-05).

Wilson and Pogo
