Just a loose guideline for feeding; please remember that cat and dog food labels base their feeding tables on non-sterilized, free roaming, active animals. When freshfood feeding/supplementing, one 6oz skinless chicken breast (for example) is 285 calories.

We have 36 dedicated rotation spaces for our regular clients. These are broken into therapy sessions, developmental training, PlayCare, special needs, dedicated care, puppies and seniors. If you feel you need to get your pup on board, inquire about getting on the welcome-list. *we are currently running with a wait-list*.

Just a reminder that we have three time slots that are used throughout the year here: 9am-5pm (playallday rate)
5pm-9pm (playcare rate)
9am-9am (playandstay rate)
As always, we charge by the day and peak days/dates/times carry additional fees. As of July 1, we will be making adjustments to fee structures - this correction will affect the 9am-9am clients the most.
As a not-for-profit professional licensed therapy clinic, it is important that we give the time, space and one-on-one services to each client as needed. Upon your next booking you will be notified as to the fee adjustment for that booking with clarification.
Two thousand recorded loving and growing moments here with the babies on board. Everyone has their own - wanna see your specific doggie, be sure to follow all your favourites 😍
Puppies welcome to join our rotation for socialization and lifestyle structure! Explore our different approach to Care. First principle with us is ‘do no harm’; as a professional-led therapy space we work with practices to encourage your special needs dog to communicate, rest, exercise and express themselves in a structured caring and sharing environment.
The special spaces here are limited and our clients tend to be longer-term using our care and therapy services on a continuous basis. If you feel your well-loved pet could benefit from our methods, be sure to get your first compatibility DayCamp day booked to begin the journey and build the action plan. *Please note that very young large breed puppies can be considered at this time however, our large breed spaces are very limited.
With some restrictions, we are again able to welcome new clients for their first DayCamp Day. This first day is required by all new clients. It’s a two hour one-on-one session to begin to learn each other’s language and build a moving-forward plan to get on the welcome list as a regular client. Space is limited and is always based on compatibility. Referrals, social therapy needs, puppy development needs and special needs are of course welcome. Inquire by email [email protected]
Yellow phase happiness 🎄- to all our current clients we look forward to seeing you, and to our prospective clients, please direct all inquiries to [email protected] to begin a journey with us.
Please note that the current Covid situation requires masks to be worn while on the premises/entering/exiting the property and on the steps/sidewalk to the entrance - and within 6 feet of others. There are Covid officers that are enforcing the mask 😷 requirements throughout our city. The fines are substantial (but spreading the virus 🦠 is worse). We are of course following all sanitation protocols to help prevent the spread.

Today, I want to talk about little dogs. I was at a client’s home a few weeks ago, doing a behavior consultation for their adorable two-year-old Maltese mix. “Chloe” had a tendency to g…
Crate training is very important- remember, we’re here to help. But absolutely ALWAYS surround your puppy with a consistent, happy, loving environment- you’ll both be the winners in the end 💕

We are always happy to take advance bookings - but please note that during the month of July we have very limited space availability for our larger breed pals. (For those looking for July 3/4/5, additional bookings will depend on dog compatibility).

If you feel your best friend (like Nugget and Charlie here on the beach🥰) would do well in our therapy environment we are happy to discuss first steps. We currently can accept a still-learning puppy or a companion adult for regular bookings. At this time we are looking to add a small/medium friend to the functioning pack. As always, higher anxiety, special needs, seniors and dogs with family-pack compatible personalities are encouraged to join the welcome-list. [email protected]. Please note no dog/cat aggressive personalities can be accepted in our environment; and our spaces are open to those families working with fear-free - no e-collars, no alpha strategies.
Today’s the day!

There may be one special full time space available for a new client end of June (assuming the tight safety restrictions have been lifted). If you feel your best friend would do well in our therapy environment, please be in touch. Referrals always welcome.
For us happiness is always job one 🤗
When we focus on making dogs happy, it’s better for them and us.
Little Linden is one wonderful 😛
Regarding COVID-19, until further notice for the health and safety of our full-time clients and our home/work environment, no new client one-on-one meetings will be made.
Our special therapy spaces are now spoken for by current full time clients. Should you wish to become part of our rotation we will be working from a waiting list. All professional referrals will be treated on an as-needed basis.
We love helping grow puppies around here. A new pup can be hard work. With our help and structured social and learning environment, life can be easier for you and your dog.
While you and your pup are busy learning potty training and the sit and stay commands, time is flying by and before you know it the puppy teeth are gone and your little furry friend is well on its way to becoming an adult. Apart from the obedience commands (which use a different part of the brain-map) your pup needs safe and structured sensory opportunities to learn social language and gain the tools necessary for independence. We excel in this area. Every breed and individual pups learning curve is different so don’t wait
