Great weekend for a few Mantrailing workshops. Well done to all the participants and your dogs, you all did incredible.
Big thanks to John from K9 Scent & Search Scotland and his team for coming up and providing your invaluable expertise and instruction

09/06/2021

*** fully booked***

Granite Pack will be hosting Mantrailing workshops on Saturday the 19th of June and Sunday the 20th of June. 11am-3pm.

Mantrailing is a great hobby for you and your dog. You will learn the basics of search and rescue scent work skills. For many this will be a great little fun activity for you to keep your dog stimulated. For others, you may wish to go farther and train to be a fully certified volunteer search dog/ handler team.

Its great for physical and mental stimulation and is suitable for dogs of all breeds and ages.

You will be lead by John Miskelly a fully qualified mantrailing instructor & trained operational handler who is a member of RRI (Response Rescue International Search & Rescue Team)

What you will need:
A harness (for your dog) and 10 meter line
An article with your scent on it in a sealable plastic bag (eg: a wooly hat, glove, unwashed t shirt etc)
Treats for dog and their favorite toy for rewarding

The cost is £50 per dog & handler.

Please let us know if you would like to book as spaces are very limited.

Evening all,

I’m sure the majority of you will easily recognise the handsome doggie pictured below. Kahn has been a beloved pack member since day 1 and you’ve probably had him greet you at the gate on many occasions.

Today we were informed that Kahn is now unfortunately in need of a vital operation to fix a rather horrible and extremely painful Cruciate injury on his back leg.

If you could take just two minutes to read over the Go Fund Me page set up by his loving owner and if possible, make a donation (as little or as much as you can spare).

I’m sure you will all agree that the sooner Kahn receives this operation, the sooner he can be back with all his pals at daycare!

Thanks,

Granite Pack - K9 Care

Hello!

Just a quick note following the Tier 4 announcement yesterday.

Granite Pack will be staying open and it will be business as usual!

Like all of us, dogs can feel the stress that comes with being stuck at home. They like routine and they still require exercise and socialisation so it’s always good to get them out of the house, even if you have to stay home.

As per our standard routine, we’re constantly cleaning and disinfecting!

Please feel free to share this with anyone you feel would benefit from our services.

Thanks for all your support,
GPK9 Team
