I offer private or group classes. I like to work with puppies and fearful dogs. I only take 4 dogs at a time in my group setting. This way everyone gets individual help and attention. And for fun the puppies get some play time. I like to group the puppies into different classes. Maybe high energy ones together, timid really need there own class as they move slower. Or I might do classes by breed.
A group of friends all have puppies at the same time, we can do that as a class as well.
-Dog Daycare. I have a small in home daycare where I have a maximum of 10 dogs per day. It is interactive. The dogs not only get free time, they may get some basic reinforcement training on skills you have taught them. We may play games, go for a walk, or read a story while practicing our downs. Sometimes we may do something that sparks my interest that I think the dogs will like. Local pick up and drop off is provided in the cost.
-Dog Grooming. I also offer a small amount of dog grooming. I groom pet dogs. This includes 2 baths, condition (when needed), dry, clip (for dogs that get clipped), brush out, nails and ears.
-Dog Boarding. Going away for one night or 30. I have in home boarding where the dogs become one of our dogs. This includes daycare.
-Pet End Of Life Support. Is it time to consider the end of life for your best friend. This can be a very hard time for people. It can bring up some emotions that add to the heartache. Maybe you need to figure out when the time is right, or support after. This may be in the weeks following or months after. There is no specified time on grief. I am here to listen and help you move forward in your grief.
-Little Nips and Big Bites. This is a new addition to my services. I was tired of paying high prices for a few big treats in a bag. And not impressed by the ingredients. I know for training I only need small rewards/treats. I found some info and started making the treats for my girls and the dogs I am training. They were such a hit that I started making more and different flavours. The owners of the dogs suggested I start to sell them. So I did. Watch for more info. Contact me for more information on any of the above services or pricing. Thanks, Jocelyn
How We Got Started
Edit
In 2002 we got our first dog. I went to take a training class with her. I absolutely loved working with her. This got me involved in agility and other activities. Then she had ACL issues and no more working. So the next dog came into our home. She was a handful. I needed different training than your obedience. I got her working and learned so much from this girl. Shortly after we got the 2nd dog, I started working at a pet store and kennel. I loved it. I ended up with the pet store for many years. It had grooming and retail. From there I added in the daycare. When I closed it down for personal reasons, I continued from home. And we are still at it.
