It is the season to celebrate for all. And to cherish the connections we have made. I appreciate all of my clients, and many now friends, that have honored me with the training of their fur kids, and them.

happy merry!

Thanks to the AKC for this reminder. Practice food safety during the holidays.

Dogs can get pancreatitis from foods that are too rich.

Grapes and raisins are dangerous. Some dogs can eat grapes and be fine while others could have grape toxicity from just one grape.

Onions are more toxic than garlic but too much garlic is too.

Cooked poultry bones are never ok.

Make sure the whole family gets to celebrate safely. 🐾💜🐾

Exciting News! I am now offering my immersion training program. It is my answer to the question I’ve often gotten “Can you just move in for a few weeks?”

It is perfect for pet parents who want faster results without the traditional board & train programs. Or dogs that are not eligible for daycare or traditional boarding facilties.

Your dog gets picked up and dropped off and spends a half day with me! Take training to a whole new level with curated experiences and training to reach your goals.

Contact me for details. 🐾💜🐾

Some items that can help your dog deal with anxiety and noise sensitivity are:
🐾 A snood. This goes over the dog’s ears.
Happy Hopdie is one of the most popular ones
💜A thundershirt. This wraps around the dog’s body.
Think of it like swaddling a baby.
🐾A weighted vest. I saw a display recently at Petco.

Whether your dog is nervous in general or you’re preparing for the fireworks this week, start using this on your dog now to get them acclimated.

I saw someone walking his dogs on Encinitas Blvd and one of them had a snood on. Bravo! to him. That’s a busy and loud street. It helped his dog be happy and confident.

Be prepared for the week, yes the entire week, of the 4th of July. Oceanside again will have fireworks at El Corazon on July 3rd. And we all know the dreaded personal fireworks that will be going off at all hours.

Don’t let your guard down just because the official display. Has finished.

Plan now so you AND your pet can enjoy the festivities.

Make sure they are completely secure and still have a collar with ID on them even if you think they are secure.

🐾Attention Pet Parents! Keep those paws healthy this summer. Even if the air temperatures don’t seem that hot to you, asphalt can be 40 to 60 degrees hotter! 🌞

Here are some tips:

✋ Do the 7 second test with your hand

🚙 Drive to the park for walks

🕰️ Walk early or late in the day

🥾 Use booties

🌞 Sidewalks get hot too even with their light color

This may not be a problem so much in SoCal but many of you travel and camp with your dog. There were signs up in Zion National Park about this is the water. Contact with this algae will kill your dog!

I got an email from 5 strands announcing this test and a sale they are having. Whether you get the test or not, please educate yourself on this algae. It is NOT always evident and there are not always warning signs. Every year people take their dogs out to frolic in a stream or swim in a lake or pond and they suddenly fall ill and most times they don’t make it. Be safe! 🐾💜🐾
