❄️ Cold Weather Training and Drop-In Update! ❄️
As the temperatures drop and snow and ice make their return, we want to remind our clients how winter weather can impact our drop-ins and in-home training sessions.
When it’s below 40°F, outdoor time will be limited to short potty breaks to keep your pups safe and comfortable. Cold surfaces, icy sidewalks, and frigid winds can quickly make training outdoors uncomfortable (and unsafe) for both dogs and humans.
But don’t worry — the learning doesn’t stop!
During colder weather, we adjust our sessions to keep things fun, safe, and productive. That may include:
Moving leash work indoors or into dog-friendly businesses
Focusing on indoor skills like impulse control, calmness, and engagement
Providing alternative stimulation during drop-ins — such as play, mental enrichment games, puzzles, and sniffing activities
Cold weather can also make it harder for dogs to focus, so we’ll keep sessions shorter and more engaging to make the most of your dog’s energy and attention.
Our top priority is always your dog’s health, safety, and continued progress — no matter what Mother Nature throws our way!
Stay warm, give your pups extra cuddles, and we’ll keep working together toward your training goals — one cozy session at a time. 💙
