Why does my puppy need visits?Your young puppy will likely need to go outside while you are away all day. One of two visits throughout the day will provide him with a regular schedule, which will in turn help teach him the basics of potty training.
-
Why can’t my puppy go on group walks?We’d love to take your pup along, but only after they’ve had their puppy shots. That way, we’ll know their chances of catching anything from other dogs are reduced.
-
Why shouldn’t my puppy continue with private visits past 4 months?Technically we can enrol your puppy in our private walk program once they reach 4 months of age. However, unless there is a medical issue, we don’t recommend that you keep your puppy in private walks. Group walks, and socialization in general, are such an important part of your puppy’s wellbeing and growth. We often meet clients whose dogs missed that all-important socialization phase of a young dog’s life and are now struggling to teach an older dog proper manners and behaviour towards canine friends in the neighbourhood. This often requires many hours of training, which can be a financial hardship, time consuming, as well as stressful to the dog. That’s why we are huge believers in early socialization! It can save you and your puppy many problems later in life.

Can you feed my dog during a visits?Yes, of course! Just leave the food out for us with instructions.

What is I have to cancel your walk with my dog?No charges if you give us 24 hours notice. Less than 24 hours notice, unless an uncontrollable situation, we charge you 50% of the fee.
