Exciting New Additions at 4LF – Introducing Brunch for Your Pups! 🍗🧇

As we move into this season of change, we have some fun and exciting updates brewing here at 4-Legged Friends! One of the things we’re thrilled to introduce is doggy brunch—the perfect option for those pups who skip breakfast before daycare or for busy pet parents who don’t have time to feed them in the morning.

Beginning this Friday, November 1st, you can pack breakfast to go, and we’ll happily feed your dog at 10 AM after they've had some playtime. We’ve found that after burning off some energy, many pups are more likely to take a food break and enjoy their meal.

And if you think your furry friend might still turn up their nose at their regular kibble, we’ve got something extra special for them—our very own 4LF Brunch!

Here’s what’s on the menu:

🍽 Chicken and Waffles – Made with Bark Bistro’s pooch pancake mix, slathered with buddy budder, and topped with a chicken strip.

Our waffle and buddy budder flavors will change with the seasons, but we promise they’ll always be delicious! Each purchased brunch is just $5 per meal—or feel free to pack your own breakfast for free!

Don’t forget, we’ll still be offering lunch breaks at noon for all our daycare guests, so they can eat their packed lunches and recharge for more playtime. We know that long, energetic play days can be draining, and without food breaks, some pups can become grumpy or even experience vomiting from an empty stomach. Our goal is to keep them feeling well, happy, and energized all day long!

We can’t wait to see all your pups enjoying these new brunch options. As always, thank you for being a part of the 4LF family!

DISTANCE ASSISTANCE
It’s not easy having a reactive dog. As much as we may feel frustrated, restricted, angry or even ashamed or embarrassed, our reactive dogs are also experiencing a range of negative emotions when they react to something that triggers them.

This reaction is usually caused by anxiety, fear, feeling threatened, frustrated or related to pain.

These emotions cause high levels of stress and stress prevents both us and our dogs from being able to process information, think clearly or learn a different, more acceptable way of reacting to whatever triggers us.

This is why creating enough distance is so important. I’m really scared of snakes and even struggle to look at them. The only thing I want to do is run away and create as much distance as possible.

If someone was restraining me, forcing me to sit down and look at the snake while trying to feed me my favourite chocolate, telling me there was nothing to worry about or trying to educate me about the specific species, it would do nothing to alleviate my fear and would only increase my stress levels.

Doing this at a sufficient distance, where I felt safe would be far more effective and my stress levels would be much lower. In time, with patience and practice, I may even be able to get much closer to the snake without having a negative reaction.

The same principle applies to reactive dogs. Creating sufficient distance where they can see the trigger but still feel safe and don’t react is the best way of helping them to cope with their feelings.

Some dogs (and people) may never be able to decrease that distance and that’s also okay.

Accept your dog for the unique individual they are, keep working on the things you can change and accept the things you can’t.

🐶 This good girl has found herself in need of a new home, and quickly!

🫡 Her human is in the service and has unexpectedly found himself being sent away for training and then deployment. So time is of the essence.

🗣️ If you’re not looking for a new friend right now, please share so she can find herself a family and stay out of the shelter system.
