Meet Ollie and Rufus!

I had the honour of es**rting not one but two Pups of Honour, in celebration of Tori and Andrew’s wedding at One Hundred Acre Wood this Saturday.

Rufus who was also the ring bearer, is the bigger, bouncy, younger brother to Ollie, a senior legend in his own right.

These two delighted everyone as they walked the aisle and made the rounds during cocktail hour before settling with me back at Clarke Road Retreat for the night.

Congratulations to Tori and Andrew, Ollie & Rufus!

I could have been more proud to es**rt Blizzard at her guardians' wedding!

I first met Katherine and Val as training clients last year, when they first adopted Blizzard, and wanted to help her feel more confident and relaxed in her new environment. We were able to use the skills she learned through training in this challenging social setting- and she did beautifully.

I have to say Blizzard might have been the star of the wedding the way she ran down the aisle, surrounded by people she loves and who love her. 💗

On a scale from 1 to 10, how gorgeous does Zoe look?! We say a 20! 🙂

Zoe’s guardians had some lovely words to share with me:

“Tasha was our dog Zoe's plus one at our wedding in June. We wanted Zoe to be part of the pictures before the wedding and the wedding ceremony. Tasha was amazing with Zoe and adapted quickly to Zoe's behaviours (like how she has to be around us 24/7). Tasha took Zoe home and stayed with her for the remainder of the wedding. Tash sent us text updates of how Zoe's doing (we wanted updates!) We can't recommend Tasha enough. She is a true professional, amazing with dogs and so talented, and a very nice person! We can't imagine our wedding day without her part of it!”

Reasons to have to have your dog at your wedding 👇💍🐾

🐾 They are a beloved member of your family: If your dog is an important part of your life, having them at your wedding can make the day even more special and memorable.

🐾 They can provide emotional support: Dogs are known for their ability to provide comfort and emotional support. Having your dog by your side on such an important day can help to calm your nerves and provide a sense of comfort.

🐾 They can participate in the ceremony: Including your dog in the ceremony can add a fun and unique touch to your wedding. From walking down the aisle with the rings to being the ring bearer or flower dog, your pup can play a special role in your big day.

🐾 They can make for great photo opportunities: Dogs are adorable, and having them in your wedding photos can add a unique and heartwarming touch.

🐾 It's a chance to spend more time with them: Your wedding day will be busy, but having your dog there means you can spend more time with them and create even more memories together.

Looking for a creative way to incorporate "something blue" and your dog on your wedding day?

We’ve got you! 💙👇

Here are some fun ideas to get you started…

💙 Blue Collar: Dress up your dog in a blue collar or leash. This is a simple and subtle way to incorporate "something blue" and your dog into your big day.

💙 Blue Bandana: If you're looking for something a little more festive, consider a blue bandana for your pup. This is a great way to add a pop of color and personality to your dog's wedding day outfit.

💙 Blue Bow Tie: If your pup is more of a formal dresser, a blue bow tie is the perfect accessory. This is a great option for dogs who will be in the wedding party or attending as a guest.

💙 Blue Flower Crown: If you're having a boho or garden-inspired wedding, a blue flower crown for your dog is a beautiful and unique option. Just make sure the flowers are safe for dogs!

💙 Blue Dog Tag: Another subtle option is to get your dog a blue tag with their name or your wedding date on it. This is a simple way to incorporate "something blue" into your wedding while also keeping your pup safe and identified.

Are you planning to have your dog at your wedding? 💍

Maybe it’s just a wishful thought at the moment, but you don't know where to start?

Look no further! As a seasoned dog trainer, I've put together a list of my top 10 must-haves for any paw-fect celebration.

So, whether you're planning an intimate ceremony or a grand event, be sure to check out my top 11 (I was going for 10 but snuck another one in!) must-haves for doggy weddings! 🐶 👇

🐾 Cooling mat and a shady place for them to rest, and take breaks instead of blanket.

🐾 A leash that matches your wedding colors - this will keep your dog safe and add a cohesive element to your wedding photos. I recommend .dog.canada

🐾 This one is more for you - a lint roller to remove those dog hairs from your wedding attire!

🐾 Your Dog’s favourite blanket, toys or even their bed. Ensure they have a safe space to go to when the wedding gets rowdy!

🐾 A plan for your dog if they find everything too overwhelming

🐾 A custom doggy wedding cake topper - you can get a custom-made cake topper with your dog's breed and add a playful element to your wedding cake.

🐾 Doggy treats - give your dog some treats throughout the day to keep them happy and calm. Or if you want a little dessert for your dog, in Prince Edward County pup cakes are amazing!

🐾 A doggy bag - pack a bag with everything your dog needs for the day, such as water, food, toys, and p**p bags.

🐾 A professional dog trainer - having a professional trainer on hand can help ensure your dog is well-behaved and comfortable throughout the day, and cooperative for photos!

🐾 A photographer who loves dogs - having a photographer who knows how to work with dogs and capture their personalities will result in some amazing wedding photos.

I've had the privilege of training under some of the best dog trainers in the world and have a passion for transforming challenging dog behaviour into rewarding relationships between guardians and their dog companions.
