Fresh air on the trails, beautiful lake views, and one very handsome Earl! 🐾

I’d say Earl loved his little vacation in the area and enjoyed the many new scents he got to experience. 🐶
What an absolutely loveable cuddlebug 🥰

🐦 MILLIONS OF BIRDS ON THE MOVE ACROSS ONTARIO!

If you took a look at the radar on IW Pro this evening, you might have thought it was raining across a large part of Southern Ontario. But despite all that green showing up on radar, much of it isn’t rain at all. It’s birds!

Fall migration is ramping up across Ontario as millions of birds begin their seasonal journey south ahead of the colder months.

Weather radar is sensitive enough to detect more than just rain and snow. When huge numbers of birds take flight at the same time, especially after sunset when many species migrate, they can produce widespread radar returns that look surprisingly similar to precipitation.

That’s exactly what we’re seeing tonight, with a large area of what looks like light rain spreading across Southern Ontario on radar despite mostly dry conditions.

And while all these birds are on the move tonight, there’s something simple you can do to help them out!

Many birds migrate at night and artificial lighting can attract and disorient them, particularly around cities and tall buildings. Turning off unnecessary outdoor and indoor lights, or closing your blinds and curtains, can help reduce the risk of birds becoming confused or colliding with buildings.

So if you don’t need a light on tonight, consider switching it off. It saves a little electricity and makes the nighttime journey a bit safer for the millions of birds travelling overhead.

Another cool sign that summer is quickly coming to an end across Ontario.

Happy National Dog Day! 🐾

A day to celebrate the bond we have with our amazing puppy companions.

Flashback to 1995 where I met my first best friend, Randy! You really were quite the menace (haha!) but you were always right by my side! 🤍 Miss you so much.

I’m forever grateful for the time I get with all my new besties.
Give your pups extra spoiling today! 🐶🥰

So relieved everyone’s okay!!

Keep on the lookout for a black and white kitty who may have escaped scared! 🐈‍⬛

We are happy to report that despite the fire today everyone is safe. Our amazing staff was able to get all the dogs out and our unit was not damaged. We will be open tomorrow, please be patient with us as we try to accommodate the clients we had to send home.

Thank you to the public who assisted us in holding the dogs while we contacted owners.

The unit that was on fire was attached and behind us, the firefighters were able to get one of the cats out but the other is missing. It is a black and white cat named roxy, she is likely very scared. Please call us with any sightings, we believe she fled through an open window.
