I’m happy to announce that I’ll be at the CANIS Conference this year.

For those who don’t know it, CANIS (Canine Advocacy, Networking, Innovation, and Science) brings together trainers, behaviour professionals, vets, shelter teams, and rescue workers for a few days focused on doing this work better.

It’s one of those events where science and real world experience actually meet… and that’s where progress happens. 🙂

I’m looking forward to the conversations, the learning, and connecting with people who are serious about raising the standard of care for dogs.

More details to come… but if you’re planning to be there, let me know. 👇

Our friends at ASAR Training and Response are at the National REP Conference this week… and they’ve got our Animal Rescue Bags with them. 🙂

Always good to see our gear out and about, especially in the hands of people doing this kind of work.

These bags are designed for disaster responders and emergency services responders to have a safe, foldable option for animal rescue and decontamination during emergencies when other types of carriers are not available.

The National REP helps to ensure responders are ready in the event of any type of radiological incident. We all hope there is never an incident of that kind, but we are glad to support those to train to be ready.

We all hope those situations never happen... but being prepared is the job.

This week is Dog Bite Prevention Week, and it’s an important one.

In this industry, this is something we see and think about every single day. But this conversation isn’t just for animal professionals.

A lot of people believe bites only happen because a dog is “bad.”

That’s not how it works. Any dog can bite.

Fear. Pain. Stress. Confusion. Being pushed past their limits. These are normal responses to overwhelming situations, and they can happen to any dog, in any home.

The difference is understanding.

In animal care, we spend a lot of time learning how to read dogs, recognize early warning signs, and handle situations safely. Because most bites are preventable when you know what to look for. (but not always).

And one of the most practical tools we have? Muzzle training.

Not as a label. Not as a last resort. But as a normal, responsible skill for any dog. Just in case.

We carry a full range of The Muzzle Movement muzzles, available through our site and shipping directly from the US. They’re designed to give dogs proper pant space, comfort, and safety when it matters most.

Better understanding leads to better outcomes, for dogs and for the people around them.

We’re having a blast out here at the Animal Care Expo 2026 🙌

Met so many incredible people already, swapped stories, shared ideas, and had some really good conversations about the work that matters.

Come by, say hello, and let us show you some of the innovative, humane tools and equipment shaped by the professionals who use them.
