This is for the rescues – www.petfinder.com/shelters/ON258.html as always.

Join us please for a relaxing, fun night to talk about dogs, learn about behavour training and meet some nice dog people! Those of you who’ve adopted in the last couple months can come and meet others who’ve adopted or are dog owners too and you can learn from each other, avoid a lot of ‘common’ dog problems too.

We still have Briar Tuck since Feb and a better dog you can’t imagine! Emily is ‘Cell Dog Trained’ and perfect and we love her to pieces! Apollo is still with us 11mos now.  Sophie and Paulina, here a long time and both great dogs. Clyde or Lugnut as we call him, and Huey are HUGE at 115 & 125lb respectively.

Big dogs like these are LESS energy and time consuming than smaller or ‘regular’ breeds, they usually don’t want to sleep on your bed cuz you make it too crowded and hot and they can only sleep in one place at a time and you’d be surprised at how LITTLE SPACE THEY TAKE UP.

They are loving, good conversation stoppers or starters, Chick and Guy magnets and all around great dogs. both are 2 yrs old and Clyde is a little more energetic than Huey but nothing like a lab puppy.

What’re we funding this time? More Heart worm meds for July, August and Sept (til the next fundraiser – Xmas In Sept – 2nd annual) and I have 6 dogs here from a lady who is in a woman’s shelter with her kids but slept in her car for three months rather than give up her dogs! Shelters don’t take them and obviously not a lot of places can take that many dogs – nor would they want to when even costs aren’t covered but with your help she can still have her dogs when her life is in order.

The dogs are 14 yr old Mike, 10 yr old Cherry, 13 yr old Buddy and Tucker, Jersey and Baily who are three Jack russells all young and having fun. She ended up with her dad’s 3 dogs when he died and her life went to crap. Her dogs are here having fun and away from the stress and margaret can focus on getting well, getting a place to live and a job without worrying about her dogs.

I need to feed them, Hw med them and two are pretty old and can use some homeopathics too.

Also we have new dogs arriving on june 28th so they all need deworming, antibiotics and god knows some one will end up sick with pneumonia from kennel koff b4 the week is over!

So please come help us and have some fun too!

Unfortunately the pub is not set up to have our dogs there so we can’t bring them.

Next event – we are looking to do a full day with John Wade this time instead of a 1/2  day www.johnwade.ca only this time you’ll have booked time with him for one on one after the group session to work on something you need fixed.
It’ll cost apprx $175 for families and $90/per person but again dogs can come. We’re looking at mid july and we will start early for coolness altho we have the outbuildings for shade and the dog’s pools are open for them too.

NOTE: we will only do the seminar by RSVP AND PMT BY CREDIT CARD. we had a few too many people not show up and these seminars are to help YOU, not cost ME money please.

We also will be carrying John Wade’s Collars he designed along with our Good Dog Collars. They work well, are great for people who want to work with their dogs and train them and also easier for people with arthrits especially to use which is really great! We have all sizes. and will have his utube instructional video on our www.SuSteiner.ca website in a couple days.

Our Good Dog Collar is for us lazy dog owners, older people, busy people who have kids in tow or strollers and tired ones who don’t feel like being pulled or pulling or jerking and are always available too.

Whatever makes walking a pleasure is GREAT FOR YOUR DOG! the BEST BREED OF DOG IS AN EXHAUSTED DOG!

Hopefully we’ll see many of you on the 30th and hear from those who want to help with the 50/50 draw.

We are STILL waiting for charity status and will keep you posted.

Su & Dave & Crew

Participate in our silent auction by bidding on some great items, to help raise money for Camp LotsaDogs! Winners can claim their prizes at the hike.

Camp LotsaDogs is a rescue that saves dogs from “High Kill” shelters or shelters with low adoption rates for less popular breeds and brings them in to a safe place to start the healing process. They do everything they can to assist the rescued dogs in finding good, solid, happy homes. Because of the dog camp boarding experience they are uniquely able to spot and fix behavior problems, emotional problems and adjustment problems as they have sources and resources to help these dogs. If you adopt they are always there to help along the way in any form they can. The ultimate goal is to place all these fantastic dogs into a forever home. A lot of these animals need to be fixed and some have medical issues that need to be corrected, so the more money we raise the more lives we can save. So please come out and hike for our most loyal companions. They deserve the best from us.

If you don’t have your own dog you can walk one of the rescues!

We Look Forward to Seeing You There!!

This dog’s NAME was NO!HANK! DOWN!HANK! STOP HANK! for his first 3 years!! Mind Boggling.  He was a small, fat sausage in my hand at 6 weeks. This is the same dog who looked sadly just like Wyle E Coyote his first winter and his first snow drift when he tried to leap over it and splatted INTO IT like a cartoon dog.

Jessie laffed at him most of his life (geez I miss Jessie), so did i and most people who met him. When we started the camp he was 5 yrs old and suddenly had a job I had no idea he was qualified for – he kept the dogs in line and stopped fights, got dogs playing, took a pack leader roll – my baby had grown up!

He still does stoopid lab things, even at 10 and will give me his ’round eared look’ when caught and it just says w’haaaat???”

My Hankie.

Hopefully you can all join us on Nov 8 for leash free time and cake from 11am to 2pm. Instead of gifts (g_d knows this dog has everything he needs) please make donations to our vets to help with the costs of our rescues (3 had pneumonia this past summer and one ate her stitches and needed to be stapled not to mention dewroming, defleaing, parasites….If you’d like to make a donation to either vet, there is Guildwood 416-265-5000 and Orono 905-983-9010 who will happily accept a visa or M/C pmt of any amount and of course you can donate thru us (visa & M/C) or here at the party.
