More dogs go missing around the
4TH OF JULY than any other time of the year and noisy fireworks are usually the cause.

Having tags on your dog’s collar helps them to be returned to you immediately without the anxiety of going to our already full animal shelters.

Microchipping proves ownership and is also the best way to help your pet get Home Again should they lose their tag.

Low Cost Microchips will be available for $35 per pet which includes a lifetime registration with Home Again at an event at IFA on June 22, 2024. Discounts are available too (see flyer below).

You can get a tag, get your pet microchipped & their nails trimmed all at this one event.

Cats are welcome too!

Freestyle Dog Dancing April 2024
Gail Workman will be starting a new class for Freestyle, which is a modern dog sport that creates interaction between owners and their dogs. It is a combination of obedience training and tricks that is combined with music and can be choreographed into a dancing routine for owners and their dogs. This is a perfect and fun way to bond with your dog.
Gail will have music each week to help you choose maneuvers that will work for you and your dog so you can dance to your favorite music.
This class will be an 8 week course beginning Thursday, April 18, 2024 at 6 pm and will be one hour every week. Your dog will need to know basic commands.
Bring a copy of vaccination records to the first class.
The cost of this 8 week course is $130. Ask Gail about the discount if you are taking Amy Chrisman’s Dog Agility Class.
