🎓 Success Story: Team Venn! 🐾

Let’s give a big round of applause to Team Venn, proud graduates of our Puppy Prep School! This superstar pup had a private lesson with Kyla where they focused on general puppy manners and polishing up those polite walking skills—and they rocked it! 💪🐶

From learning how to be a respectful little companion to strolling nicely on leash, Venn is well on their way to being a confident, well-mannered young dog. 👏✨

We’re so proud of the progress this team is making together. Way to go, Team Venn! 💛

🌞 Summer Safety for Adventure Dogs 🧭🐾
Before you lace up your boots and leash up your pup, let’s talk TRAIL SAFETY.

Our four-legged friends love a good adventure, but it’s our job to make sure they’re safe, comfortable, and prepared for whatever nature throws our way.

Here are your must-know safety tips for summer adventures:

🔥 Heat Awareness
Avoid the hottest parts of the day, watch for signs of overheating (excessive panting, drooling, lethargy), and know when to rest in the shade.

💧 Hydration
Dehydration can happen fast. Always carry fresh water and a collapsible bowl for your dog—and offer it often!

⛑️ First-Aid Basics
From minor cuts to bee stings and sprains, having a canine-specific first-aid kit on hand can be a literal lifesaver.

Here is a dog first aid company that we like:

🎒 Adventure Dog Emergency Kit Essentials:
• Portable water & bowl
• Tick remover tool
• Tweezers & antiseptic wipes
• Vet wrap (self-adhesive bandage)
• Dog booties (for hot or rough terrain)
• Cooling bandana or wrap
• Emergency contact info card
• Copy of rabies certificate & vet records
• Flashlight or headlamp
• Extra leash & slip lead
• High-value treats (for distractions or stress)
• Benadryl (check with your vet for dosage)
• Muzzle (for injury situations when handling is tough)

Here’s a brand we like (please note that not all items listed above are included so build on your individual inventory):
Adventure Dog Series Medical Kit available at Canadian Tire for around $44.99
