We are back safe and sound from our wilderness trip, feeling physically tired but mentally refreshed after a week of wildlife, fishing, and reconnecting with the woods. We’re happy to be home with our sweet seniors, and excited for a good night’s sleep in an actual bed 😂

New group classes start this week - we have one space remaining in Thursday’s Adult Fundamentals Level 1, and 2 spaces in Puppy Manners! Registration is open on the website - I will be responding to emails and messages as soon as I’m back at the computer in the morning. I have a pretty full looking inbox but will do my best to get back to you all asap 🐶

Our walks are slower these days, but it’s such a lovely reminder to stop and smell the flowers. Sometimes it’s hard to remember the teenager who made me want to avoid Bowring Park completely.. I wish I knew then what I know now so we could have had so many more relaxing walks together. Forever thankful for these moments with my sweet senior boy ❤️
