Our next Puppy Pre-School begins February 8th!

by Lisa on February 3, 2012

in Classes

We’re very excited to let everyone know that our next Puppy Pre-School begins on February 8th at 5:00 PM at the First Presbyterian Church in Mahopac.

This is a drop-in class for puppies eight to twenty weeks old and it’s a blast for them as well as for us.  Click here to see what our Puppy Pre-School is all about!

If you want to join in on the fun, drop me a quick line to let me know or just show up. Please don’t forget that you’ll need to bring your pup’s vaccination records and make sure they’re feeling well and are up to fifty minutes of structured play and learning.

The cost is $20.00 per class and a well-socialized puppy is worth their weight in gold.

See you in class!

Happy T(r)ails – A Fond Look Back at 2011

in Bait Bag

Groundhog Day, Imbolic, St. Bridget’s Day, Candlemas, and others all land somewhere on or around February 2nd.

No matter what you call it or what religion celebrates it they all mark a time of renewed life and it’s our human nature to look back on the old as we stand on the cusp of the new.  Oftentimes we are hoping for better yet to come and sometimes we are fondly looking back.

2011 brought a number of losses to the community of doggie folks that I know well and this brings emotions of mixed sadness and joy.
