Canine Meditation and Healing
KissAble Canine is excited to offer this workshop in partnership with Mimi Malfitano, meditation teacher, Reiki master and owner of Subtle Transformations.

Looking to connect with your dog on a deeper level? This workshop will give you meditation and energy healing techniques that you can practice with your dog.  We will focus on calming our own energies so we can offer better guidance and leadership to our canine companions.  With the expert guidance of Mimi, this workshop is sure to be an enlightening experience.

The workshop is great for new dog owners, shy or timid dogs and for the owner looking to enhance the bond they have with their dog.  Dogs must not be aggressive to other dogs or to people.  This workshop will be a small group, please register early.

Dog Park Manners

Come join us as we talk about the pros and cons of taking your dog to a dog park, what to do when things get out of hand and how to prevent your dog from having a bad time.  Join Lisa Tudor, CPDT, in this interactive discussion where she'll share her "Dog Park P's and Q's" and tips on how to socialize your dog.  Friendly, leashed dogs are welcome.
