Great advice!

Have a plan in place for trick-or-treating.

Dogs under a year of age are highly impressionable. A bad experience can stay with them for a lifetime.

Older dogs who are not well trained and guarding breeds can become highly reactive at the door.

If your dog is a social butterfly, dress them up in a fun costume and practice sit stays while you hand out candy.

For all other dogs, I recommend crating dog in a quiet area away from the front door with a stuffed Kong or another puzzle toy to distract them.

Chemical sprays (ie: w**d killers, pesticides, herbicides, insecticides) can be very dangerous to pets! If your neighbor or a yard your dog often walks by has a sign that the lawn was recently treated, take extra precaution! See the graphic for more info!

If you suspect your pet was exposed to any type of chemical lawn sprays, contact your family veterinarian, a pet poison hotline, or your local animal emergency hospital so they can help you determine next steps.

We have been brainstorming about how we could fill the need for our competition students to offer an evening Utility class, and we finally have a solution! Beginning May 8, Angie Motta-Martizna will teach a Utility class on selected Wednesdays starting at 7:45pm. Angie has been training and competing for 20 years and has achieved multiple OTCH titles and NOC invitations with her Golden Retrievers. She is knowledgeable, personable, and caring, and will be a great addition to our teaching team!

This class will not be offered every single week, so pay attention when signing up to see the dates it is offered.
