When it comes to high-value treats, these are my go-tos! I also love using boiled chicken.

As many of you know, I’ve been searching for a new home base since our last one — and it’s finally happening! 🎉
I’m so excited to announce that we’ll be moving in and sharing a suite with Ears to Tail Pet Grooming and Grooms by Maddie!

📍 New Location: 15 Sweden Street, Suite 1
📅 Tentative Move-In Date: November 4th

While the girls are transforming the upstairs into a luxury dog spa, the downstairs will become an exclusive one-on-one and small group training suite, designed to create the best possible learning environment for both dogs and their owners.

I’m beyond excited to welcome you into this beautiful new space and continue providing the high-quality training and care you’ve come to expect. Stay tuned—there are even more exciting updates coming soon!

Here is some helpful information in regards to the parvo out break.

As always, we ask your dogs to be up to date on all vaccinations. Please keep your puppies away from public places until they have received their core vaccinations.

We are continuing to see a spike in parvo virus cases at our clinic. Parvo virus can remain in the environment for weeks or months. It can survive the harsh winters of Maine and likely is present in most dog parks across the US. One study showed that more than 80% of dog parks test positive for intestinal parasites. Whenever you get a lot of dogs in one place, you can transmit disease.

Parvo is part of the core vaccine series in dogs for a reason. If your dog is not up to date on vaccines or hasn't completed a vaccine series, do not take them to places like dog parks or highly dog trafficked areas. Please call today to get a vaccine for your dog. Adult dogs may be fully immunized with one vaccine based on their age and vaccine history.

A fully vaccinated for parvo means:
-gotten the full 3 rounds of puppy vaccines
-received the 1 year booster at 12 months of age
-continues to get vaccinated for parvo per vaccine guidelines ( every 1 to 3 years)
*** and at least 2 to 3 weeks since the FINAL vaccine has passed. Immunity is not instant***

Once exposed, you dog can have virus shedding as early as 5 days post exposure. So their poops are leaving parvo virus for the next dog.

Clinical symptoms can take 7 to 14 days to emerge. Yup, this means, your dog is shedding virus to contaminate the environment BEFORE they are acting sick.

Once sick, this virus hits the gut and bone marrow very quickly. They will go from being off to near death in 1 to 2 days.

If your unvaccinated dog came into contact with a confirmed case of parvo:
-Call your veterinarian or our office to discuss if the monoclonal antibody is beneficial for your pup.
-puppies from the same litter of a confirmed case have a higher chance of survival with the antibodies.
-Antibodies can be helpful for unvaccinated adult dogs with KNOWN exposure but can be costly since the dosing is based on weight.

Parvo outbreaks were common in the late 70's and 80's and has been under control due to vaccination. We see a mini out break every summer at our clinic but this one has not died out and is continuing to spread.

We have had positive patients who have travelled in the Bangor area, especially down town. Please be mindful with your unvaccinated puppies!

Have you been wondering “Where’s Mackenzie? She hasn’t responded to me”

Well my scheduled post claiming I was going to be closed never posted. I’ve been bouncing between potato houses, one on one sessions, day program, fighting a cold and expanding some business ideas 👀

I am hoping to respond to all inquires by this weekend and get everyone rescheduled! Keep an eye out for a response and posts about business changes!
