New help is on the way in the form of an ATV to help me maintain the trails and remove snow this winter. It will also be a great help with a slew of other jobs on the property. It's supposed to arrive tomorrow and not a day too soon! It's got its work cut out for it, especially after today's snowstorm.

Look at the big smile on this beauty! Nairobi, a Bernese mountain dog, was in her element at Paragon Pooch Dog Park, running freely in the forest and playing in the snow.

What a great way to end the year! A past client and new member of the dog park came with his big chainsaw to remove fallen logs and stumps from one of the trails. This was a great help that all visitors will benefit from. We're not just building a dog park, we're building community.

More visitors came the park today. There was lots of running for joy and wagging tails. It's food for the soul for both the dogs and their humans.

We had more visitors to the park today enjoying the amazing beauty and spaces to run.

Just in time for Christmas, little Jasper and his family have graduated from Puppy Start Right! He has learned to explore the Big World with confidence and curiosity instead of with fear and pessimism. We also laid the foundations for learning many good behaviours and habits such as recall, leash walking, polite greetings and settling on a bed. Jasper and his family will continue their learning in the Foundations in Training class in the New Year.

Je viens de recevoir ces excellents commentaires d'une cliente qui a visité le parc ce jour-là avec son pitou.
"Notre 1ere escapade seuls Loki et moi s’est très bien passée! Je ne me suis pas perdue🤣!
C’est très bien indiqué avec les rubans roses. En plus, j’avais Loki qui suivait la trail avec son « pif » et il était right on😉
C’était juste magnifique avec la belle neige et pas froid malgré les -7°…
Je te remercie beaucoup pour cette belle opportunité, c’est une vraie thérapie!"

Le bonheur pour les chiens ainsi que pour leurs humains!

This video shares a mind-blowing example of a dog's amazing sense of smell. You will regard your own dog with a new sense of awe, wonder, and level of respect.

I've been building bridges! They are simple but do the job; made using my chainsaw and elbow grease. Now visitors can cross these creeks without needing to perform any fancy footwork or suffer from getting soakers.

A lot of time and planning goes into preparing for a family Christmas: the food, decorations, guest list, and presents. Just remember, however, that your dog most likely isn’t used to the excitement and activity of the Christmas season. Your dog’s needs must be taken into consideration while making your plans and preparations to help ensure everyone — both two-legged and four-legged — can enjoy the season safely....

Follow these training tips to get your dog's behaviour honed for the holidays so everyone can enjoy the season safely.

Know someone who's adopting a puppy? Got a friend who's dog is driving them crazy? The gift of dog training will help make the season bright and bring peace on Earth.

The work continues (and never ends) at the dog park. I had a great time on this beautiful and mild winter's day driving around on the ATV clearing fallen branches and logs from the trails so people don't trip over them. I also put up more trail markers to help visitors find the trails when they're hidden by the snow.

At long last, the fence is UP! It will need some final adjustments next spring, but my property is now a dog park! A limited number of memberships are available this winter to past and current clients as I get systems in place and address any problems. Please contact me for a tour and membership details.

Had a great weekend working on the fence line and finally got it cleared of obstructions of the buckthorn persuasion! Croc & Robe Photography also came on Saturday to take some drone footage while the property was in glowing autumn splendour. The fencing is arriving this week. Fingers crossed we can have more good weather to get some of the fence up before winter sets in.

I was very happy to have the help and good company of my friend, Quinten this weekend. We got a lot done including spreading some wildflower seeds in selected areas to bring more colour and beauty to the property next year and beyond.

I cleared more buckthorn from the fence line to make way for the ATV and rolls of fencing to get through. I ordered the fencing- all 19 rolls of it! While I wait for the delivery, there's more than enough work to keep me busy.

Training From the Foundation Up

Mary believes that successful dog training comes with having a strong relationship with a dog built on clear communication, trust and play. Mary teaches clients how to work with their dogs to become a leader that dogs will trust and will want to follow. She focusses on foundation skills that serve to develop a strong, positive relationship with a dog. These include concepts such as proximity, confidence, impulse control, and focus. From these foundation skills, dog and handler can achieve all sorts of desired behaviours such as a reliable recall, good leash manners, and calm and control even under distractions. Mary works with clients to prevent and rehabilitate dog behaviour problems using positive, force-free methods that utilize dogs’ natural instincts and motivators.
