Canine Country

Canine Country boarding and training Welcome to a place where every dog has the space and the nurturing to have fun and learn -- welcome to Canine Country.

As dog lovers ourselves, we believe pups should have plenty of room to play. That's why, when you bring your furry friend to our place for boarding, grooming, or training, you'll find 27 acres of pasture, woods, and streams they can call "home" for however long they stay. And with our activity packages to keep your pet engaged and well-exercised, we know your pet will love staying with us as much as we love having them!

Whew! We welcomed in nine new guests and sent home 10 all in just over an hour. I have the best employees. Busy settling all the pups in and getting the rooms ready for the 15 new guests arriving tomorrow. My greeter will be at her station tomorrow and I'm looking forward to having her with me again 😍

The official start of winter is nearly here, so let’s learn a little bit about a wintry dog! The St. Bernard got its name from the St. Bernard Pass, a treacherous, snowy route 8,000 feet above sea level through the Alps between Italy and Switzerland. The Great St. Bernard Hospice starting keeping St. Bernard dogs starting around 1660. These hardy working dogs made rescue excursions on the St. Bernard Pass for hundreds of years. They often worked in teams and when they found buried travelers, one dog would dig through the snow and lie on top of the injured to provide warmth while the other dog returned to the hospice to alert the monks of the stranded traveler. Because of these remarkable dogs' excellent sense of direction and smell, their powerful build, their watchful and patient nature, and of course their resistance to the cold, about 2,000 people were rescued between the mid-1600s and the late 1800s.

The first week in December is National Flu Vaccine Week and National Handwashing Awareness Week. We’re right in the middle of holiday season and the winter, which means a lot of togetherness and more being indoors - a combination of circumstances that are ideal for transmitting illnesses like the flu, COVID, and other respiratory infections. Take care of yourself and others by washing your hands regularly and getting your flu vaccine (and COVID boosters!) as you deem appropriate so that you and your loved ones are less likely to spend the holiday season under the weather!

We had a very busy morning with the pups. Full house and lots of morning energy. Canine Country is so fortunate to have the best employees who left their homes early this morning to come and care for our guests. Thank you to all of our clients who entrusted their pets to our care. Hope you are all enjoying fun and relaxing time with family. Happy Thanksgiving to all.

We welcomed in 17 more guests this morning. Full house for Thanksgiving. Looks like fabulous weather for dogs even if it is going to be a bit chilly. Be safe everyone driving or flying to your destination. Will be here taking good care of your pups. ❤

November is Adopt a Senior Pet Month! There are lots of older dogs and cats who need a loving home, and while people usually want a puppy or kitten, there are definite pros to getting an older pet. You probably won’t have to do as much training, they won’t be as high energy as a baby animal, and it can be very rewarding to give an older animal the love and care they deserve, too. Do you have a senior pet? Show us in the comments!

November is National Pet Cancer Awareness Month. Cancer is unfortunately not uncommon for pets, especially senior pets. Some commonly diagnosed cancers in pets include lymphoma, melanoma, mast cell tumors, osteosarcoma, and oral cancer. Like humans, regular check-ups and screenings are super important for your pets. Not all pet cancers are deadly - some are curable with early detection and intervention, and others can be prevented by spaying or neutering your pet.

Happy Friday! We hope you’re having a great day!

Happy Mother’s Day to all the stupendous moms! 🩷🌷🌹🌼

Happy National High Five Day! ✋

Who watched the eclipse yesterday? Did anyone travel to see totality? Pretty amazing! 🌞🌝

Now that it’s officially springtime, here are some helpful reminders for making sure your pet is as safe, happy, and healthy as can be this season! Warmer weather means MORE BUGS, so make sure your pet is properly treated for heartworm prevention and flea and tick control. Pets can also have seasonal allergies just like us, so if you notice increased sneezing, itching, or sniffling, take your pet to the vet to get checked out. Be mindful of other springtime hazards, like cleaning products, Easter candy and decor, toxic plants, and gardening supplies.

Looking for something fun to do this weekend? Paw Prints Agility Club is hosting an agility trial at the G.R.E.A.T. arena in Greenwood. You'll get to see some very talented dogs and handlers. Starts around 8:00 a.m. on Saturday and Sunday and runs until 3:00 or 4:00 p.m. in the afternoon. Different breeds, short and tall, lots of fun. Just a sample video.

AKC Fetch . . the most fun you and your dog can have with their favorite ball or toy. On Saturday, March 23rd, Canine Country will be hosting an Introduction to AKC Fetch. The course will be set up for novice and intermediate. We will review the basic rules for the beginning levels. Then we will do some real Fetch. We will start at 10 am and run until 1 pm. That should give everyone a couple of rounds with their dogs. I've attached a video. Sorry about the background noise. Fetch is a very easy sport to play. You'll need to bring your dog's favorite ball or toy, water for both of you and a chair for yourself. Questions? Please ask. I'll be posting more tips this week.

Happy Pi Day! What’s your favorite kind of pie? Or, what’s your favorite digit of pi? 😆🥧

We hope you have a great spring break, Shreveport/Bossier kiddos!

This weekend, it’s time to spring forward! We know your phones automatically set themselves an hour ahead, but don’t forget to go to sleep a little earlier! ⏰

Tuesday was Galentine’s Day and Mardi Gras, and yesterday was Valentine’s Day and Ash Wednesday! It’s been a busy week! Have you done anything special to celebrate?
