The Weekly Woof 🐕‍🦺 December 6, 2025

Howdy, South OC dog lovers—Tommy Stark here, channeling that Dana Point salt air to keep your pups locked in amid holiday hustle. Quick hits on classes, walks, tips, trails, and tail-waggin' science. Let's leash up and go.

🐾 Group Classes: Holiday Leash Tune-Up

Zigzag walks got you tangled?  Check out the "Winter Clinics Series" (DogTrainerOC.com for spots). Next up: Beginner Obedience Series starts Jan 10 at Dee Dog Park, San Juan Capistrano. Five weeks of focus-building chaos—register now for that unbreakable heel.

🐕‍🦺 Pack Walk Alert: January Vibes

Skipping December for trail TLC, but January's on at Laguna Niguel Regional Park. Leashed strolls, sniffing smarts, and a collab with Emily Haley. Solo jaunt till then?

💡 Quick Tip: Doorway Zen Drill

Doorbell ding = dog frenzy? Practice "watch me" in five minutes: Quiet room, hand signal + treat for three-second eye lock amid jingles. Hit sidewalks for reps—builds holiday-proof focus for obedience wins.

🏖️ Trail Pick: Crystal Cove's Reef Point

Bluff-top 2-mile loop near Laguna Beach: Salty scents, wave crashes, leash-friendly fox dens. $15 entry—perfect recall practice with ocean gusts. Low surf? Tide pool bonus.

🌟 Science Bite: Blood Markers for Longevity

October's Dog Aging Project bombshell: "Mystery molecules" in pup blood could extend healthy years via custom therapies. Your 12-year-old bounding like a pup? SciTechDaily has the deets—vitality unlocked.

That's your bite-sized Woof, OC—short on words, big on bonds. Holiday pup puzzle? DM @thedogdirector. Woof strong!

Stay steady, Tommy Stark The Dog Director | iSpeakDog! DogTrainerOC.com | @ocdogtrainer

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.
