March 1 update

March Break: We are full March 8 to 17. Daycare will be suspended during this time. Any cancellations over these dates are subject to the $50 cancellation fee.

We will take a waiting list for these dates for bookings of five days or longer.

Easter – March 29-April 1. We will be open AM only on Good Friday. Saturday/Sunday/Monday will be normal non holiday hours. We have a bunch of space remaining for Easter, with a 2 night minimum at the moment.

Summer – Over the past few weeks we have received several summer bookings. If you know your dates, reserve them. We don’t mind later adjustments if needed.

Difficult dogs – Once the ground thaws we will carve out another separate area to create Area 5! Our goal is to get all the dogs out at once and by adding an extra separate exercise area outside we can have up to five groups. Typically 75% are in the main group. 20% are the smalls and the shy, leaving 2 areas at any given time for the difficult or aggressive. A fifth area will allow us to add another group or difficult dog at any given time.

Mid February update

There are a few upcoming dates to be aware of.

  • Family Day Weekend: We are full. Holiday hours are in effect for the Monday, 4pm to 6pm only on February 19
  • March Break. We have a bit of remaining space for dates between March 8 and March 17. Daycare will be suspended during those days. A minimum number of nights will be required.
  • Easter: March 29 to to April 1. We will be open AM Only on Good Friday. The rest of the weekend we will have our full hours. Monday we will be open AM and PM.

As soon as the ground thaws we will be repurposing a bit of dead space in the back fields and wiring a fifth area; another high security area for dogs that are anti-social, escape risks or for another group of small dogs!

While it is early, we have received our first Christmas booking and some are reserving summer dates. We take reservations for all dates all the time. My guideline remains, that if you know your dates, book them. If need be, they can be adjusted closer to the date.

Our busiest times are summer weekends and the last two weeks of July and the first two weeks of August.

The days are getting longer!
