🗞️

🐾 The Weekly Woof – June 28-July 5, 2025
with Tommy Stark, the Dog Director of iSpeakDog

🐾 TODAY: THE Pack Walk of OC

📍 Laguna Niguel Regional Park

🕔 5:00 PM – On leash. On time. On mission.

This is more than a walk. It’s a moving classroom where your dog learns to follow calm, clear leadership. Be early and let your dog settle before we roll out.

🎆 Fireworks Season Starts Now

Don’t wait for the booms to prep your pup. Fireworks will likely start this weekend and keep going through the 4th.

📖 Read: Keeping Dogs Safe During Fireworks

✅ Learn how bone marrow, crate structure, and calm energy can reset your dog’s firework response.
✅ Understand what to do before, during, and after noise exposure—especially for puppies under 5 months.
✅ And no, comfort isn’t love—calm is love.

🧠 Training Insight of the Week

“Dogs obey when they respect. Not when they’re bribed.”
Every interaction teaches. Even doing nothing teaches. Be intentional. Don’t give attention to anxiety—give your dog a job instead.

🌴 OC Spotlight: The Bluff Trail at Dana Point Headlands

Want a quick mental recharge? Walk the Dana Point Bluff Trail—low traffic, ocean air, and the occasional dolphin sighting below.
Perfect for post-training decompression or an early morning reset before the weekend gets loud.

📰 Pup-Positive News

🎓 Dogs May Detect Health Changes in Owners Up to 48 Hours Before Symptoms
A study out of Finland shows trained dogs alerted to subtle changes in breathing and heart rate—before humans knew something was off.
Your dog isn’t just your best friend…they’re a walking bio-sensor.

Want to build that kind of awareness in your pup? Start by slowing down your own routine. Dogs don’t miss what’s right in front of them—we do.

💬 Final Thought

Walk like your dog is watching.
Because they are. Every move. Every breath. Be worth following.

Stay cool,
🐾 Tommy Stark

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
