🗞️ THE WEEKLY WOOF

🐕 Pack Walk Alert!

Mark your calendar! The next THE Pack Walk of OC is happening on

🗓 March 21st

🕔 5:00 PM

📍 Laguna Niguel Regional Park

Let’s get those paws moving with Tommy Stark leading the pack. All dogs welcome—just bring your leash, good vibes, and poop bags.

👉 Check for updates: ocpackwalks.com

🐶 Group Classes Update

Looking at the full schedule—Sunday mornings look like the prime window for Dee Dog Park sessions. Spring Training Series details dropping soon once everything lines up: small groups, hands-on focus on practical skills like staying tuned in amid distractions, polite greetings, and everyday confidence builders. All led by me.

Registrations are live on dogtraineroc.com—jump on the list early!

🏖️ South OC Dog Spot to Visit

Whiting Ranch Wilderness Park trails (right near Lake Forest/Foothill Ranch border) – those oak-shaded paths and the Red Rock Canyon section feel like a mini escape in the middle of suburbia.

✅ Gentle climbs through wooded canyons perfect for leashed sniffing adventures

✅ Wildlife spotting (squirrels, lizards, maybe deer) without heavy crowds

✅ That unique red rock payoff at the end—views that make the loop worth it

📰 Pawsitive Dog News

Big steps in canine longevity: Biotech company Loyal's LOY-002 drug, designed to slow age-related decline in senior and large-breed dogs, has hit a key FDA milestone with "Reasonable Expectation of Effectiveness." Large-scale clinical trials are rolling now, with potential conditional approval as early as 2026. This could mean extra healthy, vibrant years for pups by targeting metabolic aging—not just treating disease. Real promise here for longer tails and happier hikes.

💬 Quote of the Week

“The dog is a gentleman; I hope to go to his heaven not man’s.”

– Mark Twain

That’s the Woof this week—short, real, and straight from the pack. Hit me up if you want to talk training, spots, or anything dog-related. Give your pup an extra scratch from me.

Scheduling Private Lessons

I do NOT book ahead of the current week

I do my weekly schedule based on your locations/availability - this reduces chances of getting into traffic delays between lessons plus maximizes the amount of dogs I can help on a daily basis.

Please give me more than one option when giving your availability if possible. Makes organizing the calendar much easier. You can also give priority times if you wish.

Sunday evening when I send out the events please confirm/accept the invite if you can.

Priority and Packages

This does not apply to new clients New clients do NOT pay before lessons if we have not met

Clients with packages will be scheduled first. Those without packages will fill in open spots on a location basis. If there is no space in the calendar for the week, I will add you to a waiting list for last minute cancellations.

Instructions

•The cut off is (Sunday) at 6pm IF you would like to train this week and list a few dates and times that work for you. I will respond to you by Sunday at 8 PM with your confirmed day and time via Google Event. Once you receive the “Google Event” email please hit “accept” so that I know you have received it.
**Please allow for a potential delay of 10-15 mins arrival time based on traffic and lessons going longer - especially late in the day.

You MUST have a registration card on file to give availability. See above. You only register once
