Puppies! We know there are SO many puppies out there as a result of having some freed up time over the past couple of months. I get it, if I didn't have four dogs already one who is still a puppy, I would have definitely been where y'all are at!

With workplaces slowly opening up, we are faced with leaving our pups home for extended periods of time. Although we have certainly tried our best to prepare them for this shift from kennel training to online classes, our sudden absence will still be a huge shock to them.

Our midday breaks are perfect for puppies who are potty training, learning crate time, still eating lunch and in need of socialization and exercise! Even if you are home, having a new person work with your pup has countless benefits for their development! Did you know that puppies should have 100 interactions with humans before they are 16 weeks old!?!?
•
The term setting your pup up for success is definitely something we hear a lot of but there's a reason for it. We can avoid many problematic behaviours such as fear and anxiety that develop over time by taking a preventative approach when our pups are wee and impressionable!

Contact us today to book your complimentary meet and greet. As well as check out our other services offerings from mobile grooming to overnight care.

Love y'all!

Hello Tinkle Time Family,

I hope you are all doing well during this interesting time and that you've been able to adjust alright. There's no doubt it has been challenging but I'd like to believe that there's something positive to take away from all of this.
Over the past couple of months, I have put quite a bit of thought into what our new 'pet service' normal would look like. As such, I wanted to take this opportunity to share some important information and new and exciting things at Tinkle Time Pet Services!

WE ARE OPEN!

With the gradual reopening of the province, people are going back to work, going on trips and booking events. We are open for our usual midday break, walk, overnight care and taxi services. Online booking is available for your convenience.

Safety is our top priority. It is imperative both staff and clients adhere to AHS's strategy for success: follow public health measures, practice physical distancing and good hygiene, and continue acting responsibly.

Additional precautionary information:
- Overnight care in a client's home will only be offered to existing clients and on a case by case basis
- Overnight care in a sitter's home will be offered on a case by case basis

We have all been social distancing for over a month now and adapting to this 'new normal'

It has been interesting to observe my own reaction to these uncertain times. Initially I was panicked and worried that things would never go back to the way they were. But then I asked myself why would something completely out of my control make me feel that way? I hadn't lost control over my ability and what I have to offer so I took some time to reflect, think and (informally) plan.

The outcome, I am a much stronger person than I was one month ago. I've found a new found passion for fitness ( thank you @oxygen.alberta and @hotshopyyc ) and even took the plunge and committed to my 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training journey starting May 4th through @altryoga 🧘‍♀️ My biggest take away from this is digging up that natural instinct and resilience from within to persevere and make the most out of this crazy time.

As for Tinkle Time, we aren't going anywhere. In fact, quite the opposite. We have made some exciting changes like introducing mobile grooming services. There are a couple more ideas brewing and I can't wait to share what's to come.

Tinkle Time continues to offer walks if they are needed at this time. Our online booking is open for your convenience.

My heart goes out to everyone directly impacted by COVID-19 including those who are truly struggling mentally and emotionally right now. These are seriously trying times on mental well being and if you are struggling, please don't be silent. The sense of community that has been born out of this unfortunate event is tremendous and we are here for you.

My gratitude goes out to our health heroes, my family and friends. Thank you.

Adapting looks different to everyone. All you can do is tap into something inside that fuels you to overcome this, something that feels good to you. It doesn't have to be big, even something as small as finishing a book, going for more walks or reorganizing your living room, because it WILL get better.

Please share what has helped you through this uncertain time in the comments. You never know how your experience could help a community member in need.

Be safe and stay well
🙏

Animal rescues are seeing an influx of foster and adoption applications as a result of the COVID-19 crisis. It makes sense because people are home pretty much 24/7 right now and can give their full attention, care and time to a pet, especially dogs.
°
Although this is certainly a positive to the rescue community and to many animal loving families, new pet owners must prepare their new family member(s) for real life.
°
When things go back to 'normal', the shock a dog will experience when his pack suddenly returns to work for 8+ hours a day will be tremendous. It will be incredibly stressful for him and will present significant challenges to owners if they don't prepare their dog properly.
°
Here are some tips for those inviting a new four legged member into their family, whether it's a foster, rescue or from a breeder, during this crisis:
°
1) It is critical to kennel train your dog for safety and coping skills. Kennels are a dogs safe space if introduced properly and should be used sporadically even while you're home. Suddenly introducing a kennel for an 8+ hour period when you return to work will be very stressful for your pup (and you).
°
2) Create boundaries in the home i.e. don't let your dog in certain rooms or on the furniture. This is training without actually training. Boundaries build confidence and in many instances create a safer environment for your dog.
°
3) Balance leaving your dog at home (kenneled) with taking them for a car ride (also kenneled). You want to build up their ability to be alone along with building up their confidence in the car.
°
4) Socialization. This is a tough one especially during social distancing. It is imperative that puppies are socialized before 12 weeks of age. The people and other dogs in your home don't count. There are a few companies still offering dog walks as well as a few daycares and groomers that are still open. These are your best bets in getting your puppy off on the right paw. The number one killer of dogs is not illness; it is behaviour issues that arise from lack of proper socialization in these critical first few weeks.
°
5) Be mindful of how much you talk to and pet your dog.....(cont'd in comments 👇)

Hi Tinklers,

Trust this post finds you all safe and well 🙏💕 We hope the majority of you are staying home during these uncertain times and are doing your part to help those who are still on the front lines from grocery store clerks to health care employees.

It has been incredible seeing the lengths some small businesses are going to continue to operate whilst protecting our community. These measures include offering curbside pickups, mobile delivery, online learning and more. To each of those businesses, thank you for doing your part in eliminating any form of human contact and thus preventing the spread of COVID-19.

So with that all said, Tinkle Time is available for those families who are still working long days and need their dogs walked or let out. We have done some research and most communities consider pet care an essential service. After all, they are our family.

It is critically important to understand our availability is not for those practicing any form of self isolation at home. It is only for those who are still on the front lines and are working regular or extended hours or for those who are physically unable to walk their dogs.

Please be safe and stay well.

Love y'all!
~M

Our services present a low risk especially since we are implementing safe practices.

There are still many clients who are still working or are elderly and at extra risk (and cannot go out) and they need our help.

As such, Tinkle Time will continue to offer walks granted we know the client and/or employee hasn't traveled internationally and is not sick.

Our team is practicing "the five" on a regular basis so we can continue to assist those in need:

1) Hands - wash often
2) Elbow - cough into it
3) Face - don't touch it
4) Feet - stay more than 3 ft apart l
5) Feel - sick? Stay home

If you need our help with your dogs during this time or have any questions at all, please let us know.

Casper is from the UK and currently resides in #millbaybc Casper is a Springer Spaniel but I've never seen one look quite like him!

He's stalky but lean and incredibly fit and powerful! He's super fast but agile and a little bit Springer 🤪! I love how different lines of the same breed can look so different than what you expect or are used to.

Welcome to Tinkle Time lil buddy! Check out our stories for a few more pics and videos of Casper having some fun with @tinkletimepetservices
