Welcome to February. Winter weather remains unpredictable and temperatures vary. So we need to keep in mind how these cold/warm variations affect our pets. Especially when walking or exercising our canine family. Just as we need to dress up or down depending on the temperatures, so the length of our walks and time outdoors may need to vary with the temps.
❤️Valentine’s Day❤️ is the main celebration in February and fun to celebrate with our pets. Many of us are still making plans for 2025. Perhaps it is a good time to check out any new training courses or special events in our local dog training facilities. There is bound to be something new and exciting opportunities to spend quality time with your canine family and friends.
