I’m excited to announce that I’ll be available to book dog training appointments on Saturday mornings in Vanderhoof between October 14th and December 16th.

I hadn’t put too much thought into traveling to Vanderoof for training before. I am currently unable to walk or drive anywhere so I have been training out of my back yard. Last weekend I had an appointment with a lady and her dog from Vanderhoof. The original plan was for them to come here but since our bank appointment was for the same day in Vanderhoof, I told her I’d come to her. I don’t know Vanderoof super well, my husband definitely knows it better than I do. But her home was easy enough to find. An hour before our bank appointment my husband dropped me off and he spent the next hour driving around and picked us up a snack from Tim Horton’s. While I really hate depending on others for a ride, if I have to depend on anyone for it I prefer it to be my husband. I just struggle with allowing myself to rely on other people.

We signed our daughter up for swim lessons in Vanderoof and they will occur every Saturday from October to December. Since we’ll be heading to Vanderhoof and hanging out for an hour anyway I figured I might as well open my books for dog training appointments while I’m there!

If training in Vanderhoof proves successful I may continue to provide training to our neighboring town even after my daughter is done swim lessons. Of course, it will depend on how healed my foot is and if I can drive myself by then.

I will continue to offer flexible hours for those who need it in FSJ, but I will no longer be available for Saturday morning sessions after October 13th.
