Free fun for your doggie! This Saturday from 11am-3pm, we'll be hosting an open house.
We will be having lots of fun stuff going on...so join in on the doggie playgroups, play on the agility equipment, get a free nail trim, show us some tricks, and pick up free treats!
Addie wanted to wish everyone a Happy Howl-o-ween! Isn't this just the cutest little devil you have ever seen?
Meet Chloe, one of our new daycare doggies. We are looking forward to her very first day of doggie daycare, and we already have some pals in mind for her!
Meet Brody, an Irish Setter who will be joining us for doggie daycare. He is enrolled in our Fido Flex Plan for obedience training, and he is a STAR Puppy graduate...Brody is a very accomplished and busy puppy!
We will be hosting a Customer Appreciation Day open house on Saturday, November 6th from 11am-3pm. Be sure to save the date!
Lily and her mom Andrea entered our Rally-O trial last weekend, and earned her Level Two title. Way to go, Lily!
Barb and her labs earned some fancy titles this weekend at our Rally trial. Aren't they stylish?
This is Big, as in "a big sweetie" and "a big cutie"...isn't he just adorable? Big will be joining us in Doggie Daycare on Wednesday for the first time. He's taking advantage of our taxi service, so he will be riding in style. We can't wait to introduce him to Rory, another English Bulldog pup who comes to daycare.
If you aren't yet familiar with the sport of K9 Nose Work, it's an up-and-coming sport that you should look into. Your dog basically learns to sniff out a specific scent, and to locate that scent in four different areas.
A line of boxes is arranged, typically in two rows, within a room. Your dog works his way through the room, locating the one that contains the scent. For beginning dogs, Birch is the scent used. The other three areas are an indoor room, an outdoor space, and a vehicle search.
Gemini Dogs is currently offering classes through instructor Gail McCarthy. We are also offering a mock trial in January, and we are working with some local trainers to co-host the first Massachusetts trial in May 2011.
For more info on the sport, visit www.funnosework.com.
We are actively scheduling our 2011 trials for CPE Agility, TDAA Agility, and APDT Rally-O. Watch our website for details. And if you are a judge for any of those venues, let us know!
Congratulations to Bimini, our most recent graduate from the STAR Puppy program.
Have a look at that photo of Amos; if you see a dog that looks like that, it might be Turkey, a lost dog who really needs to get back home! Below is a note from him:
"I am new to this area and managed to get lost in Harvard on Thursday morning (9/23/10). My name is Turkey but I am shy and may be too frightened to respond to it. I am a 2 year old recently neutered male Bernese Mountain Dog, black, rust and white, weigh 104lbs and am about 2 1/2 ft tall . I have no white on my fore-legs and only a little white on my tail. I have on a red collar with my rabies tag and I have been micro-chipped (still registered in Kansas which is where I just came from). My new family is really sad and would like me back. If found, please immediately call Cindy (978) 501-4964 or Denis (978) 501-4965 or our home (978) 456-3461 any time."
This is Amos, a Bernese Mountain Dog that comes to Gemini to play and stay. Dad sent us this new picture; isn't he looking very handsome?
The National Weather Service issued a hurricane watch for the Cape and the islands this afternoon, as forecasters warned that Hurricane Earl could bring rain and tropical storm-force winds to Eastern Massachusetts late Friday.
Of course, this storm may not impact us very much this far inland, but it's always best to be prepared. Gemini Dogs is always available to kennel your pets for you if you need to leave your home and seek emergency sheltering.
Don't forget your pet when preparing a family disaster plan.
• Proper identification including immunization records
• A photo of you and your pet together; it proves ownership!
• Ample supply of food and water
• A carrier or cage
• Medications
• Muzzle, collar, and leash
This is Amos, a Bernese Mountain Dog who attends Doggie Daycare and stays with us overnight in boarding. He is one of several Berners that attend daycare, and he is a super cool doggie!
This is Henry, a cute little Chocolate Lab that has graduated as a STAR Puppy from our Puppy Playschool. He is currently attending Beginner Obedience, and he recently joined us in Doggie Daycare.
Henry has a ton of new friends, and is really enjoying himself. Would your dog like to meet him? Come on in to tour our daycare!
