As Kathy Fisher so eloquently explains, these photos exemplify exactly what 20 or more weeks of skilled training, patience and dedication equates to! From basic to advanced obedience through to therapy certification is how good teams are grown and developed! No doubt all who receive their certifications next Wednesday will go out into our community and spread happiness, create joy, improve health, provide comfort and even help teach and shape young minds! So proud of them all and even more proud to be a part of something bigger than all of us - CCTP! Go forth and do good things teams!!! Also a Thank you to Pony Bird De Soto for allowing us to come visit their facility!

Per Kathy Fisher Today was Ernie's final therapy visit to Kingston K-14: Primary/Elementary for the 2025-2026 school year. We both enjoyed listening to many fun books being read aloud to Ernie while he lavished in the pets, belly rubs and shared in a few doggie kisses. We have seen the students grow to become stronger, confident and more enthusiastic readers over this term! It is always refreshing watching the students assist each other, too. Such great teamwork!

We hope the students and staff all enjoy a fantastic summer break and we look forward to seeing many of their smiling faces again in September!

We tried the self-wash last night at Treats Unleashed - Oakville and loved it. Surprisingly it was also cinco de Mayo so we got a deal on the wash. The staff was very helpful and the self wash area was clean, sanitary and all the supplies, shampoo, towels and a blower are all included. The self wash works out great if we have short notice on a therapy visit plus they clean up after you!!!! We’ll definitely be back. Auzzy loved all the treats after his wash!
