Today is National Guide Dogs Day! We’d like to recognize the great, hard working dogs that act as the eyes for many people

When you come home for a walk, hike or outing with your favourite companion, make sure to do a check for any hitchhikers. If you are not comfortable removing them yourself, we are more than happy to help you with this, however, we recommend coming and picking up a complimentary tick twister just in case your pet picks any up while you are away or at the cottage!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO OUR WONDERFUL MANAGER RENÉE All of the staff here at Golf Glen hope that you have a fantastic day and we want to thank you for being such a great manager, technician, and team member!

It is HOT out recently, and it seems the temperature has no plans on changing for the next couple weeks. Although we like to enjoy the sun and spend time with our dogs, please remember they are walking on the pavement with bare feet. When the temperatures are hot, the pavement is hot as well. Here is a good way to tell if the pavement is safe for your dog to walk on
