Happy New Year!  Best wishes for 2023

 

 

 

IMPORTANT NOTICE

RDOC has made the difficult decision to close our organisation at the end of January 2023.

Unfortunately, this means that we will have to discontinue CCGC testing.

We would like to refer you to the Canadian Kennel Club who currently have a very
similar program called "Canine Good Neighbour":

Watch for Cats
& Other Animals!

Please remember to check for cats or other animals hiding under the hood, or in the wheel arches of your car!

Make noise, bang on the hood, slam the car doors, and honk your horn for good measure before you start up your engine!

And give the animal a little extra time to escape - it may be caught in
a tight space.

Thank You! 




Come and join us for an interesting online discussion about our
4-legged friends...
our dogs of course.

Each week we will tackle a different topic, from clicker training to special equipment like wheelchairs for dogs, etc. The group is open to all RDOC members. 

For more information please email [email protected].

Canadian Canine Good Citizen(CCGC) Test

What is the test, and why is it so important?

Many dog training schools have classes to help you and your dog learn everything needed to gain your certification.
More info about the test here

CCGC applicants should be members of RDOC.

For Kids

RDOC proudly announces the publication of our updated Dog Safety Activity Booklet,
"Fido, Friend or Foe?"
, which is available on our website as a pdf, in both French and English. There are colouring pages that can be printed from the pdf file, as well as important safety information to be aware of when children and dogs are together.
 



Don't forget to visit the Kids Activity Pages on our website. We have some easy tricks to teach your dog, fun puzzles to solve, pictures to colour and simple crafts.

We also have lots of links for parents about keeping children safe around dogs.

 


In addition to the Activity Pages for older kids, we have a new 
Kids version of our RDOC newsletter suitable for the younger ones.
