Gabriola Pack Walk and Play

Gabriola Pack Walk and Play Nothing tires out a dog like another dog! Finally I'm dipping my toe in the water as I drop to part time telework and part time dream job. Where, you ask?

Gabriola Pack Walk & Play has been a business I've wanted to launch for a long time (and admittedly inspired by the amazing pack walks my dogs used to join with Mathew Hatherley in Ucluelet). I've had animals since I was a kid and hauled home every critter that's needed a helping hand along the way. For decades I've been involved in rescue and foster, whether it's been the desert dogs of the Sinai

, Arctic huskies or the umpteen golden retrievers I've fostered (or foster-failed) over they years. Your canine family will come out with our crew on a long line and go on adventures! Well that will depend on their character, the group and the weather.

Pond Update

I've decided to drain the pond. Despite treating it with animal-safe products, adding gypsum to improve water clarity, and spending considerable time trying to establish grasses to reduce runoff, I haven't been able to achieve the results I was hoping for.
I also researched filtration and aeration systems, but the equipment required would be a significant investment and would only be practical to use on weekends, as the dogs would likely damage it during regular use.
For now, we'll return to pool play and revisit the pond when the rainy season returns.

I forgot to make the video last week so here's a two week summary of our doggie madness!

When it's warm and we'd rather abscond from pack walk and hang with our buddies in the van ... but get discovered!

The ride home is much more subdued than the drive to the farm.
