Spring 2011
For Spring Canine Basics is pleased to introduce private classes. We are often asked for individual assistance on specific issues or for dogs that are not social enough to be in a class session. Therefore Canine Basics is pleased to introduce private sessions. These sessions can be held at your home or out in the community. For socialization the Canine Basics Canine Crew also offer their assistance when needed. For most issues only a few sessions are needed to provide the direction and assistance to resolve issues. To learn more please contact us!
Canine Massage Therapy
LOOKING FOR CANINE VOLUNTEERS!
As part of my canine massage therapy training I need two canine volunteers. I am looking for one (1) dog over the age of 9 as well as one (1) dog between the ages of 2 – 6 years with a known skeletal problem (for example, hip dysplasia). Each dog would receive four massage sessions as part of my training program. The sessions would be videotaped for training and review. Dogs must be available at least once per week to volunteer (which means their owners must be available too).
If you would be interested please email jane@caninebasics.ca
and remember …
A relaxed dog is a happy dog!
At Canine Basics we believe the Human – animal bond is one to be celebrated. From time to time we will host special events. These might include hiking in the Adirondacks or heading out for a picnic with family, friends, and canines. Past and current students of Canine Basics who would like to participate are welcome to join us. Keep an eye on the web site for announements of upcoming events!
