I have 4 fur children – ChaCha (A.K.A. Beanie), Sugar (A.K.A. Shuggie), Dandy (A.K.A. Dands) and Mischief (A.K.A. Missy). They are all the BEST and of course I would never choose a favourite but ChaCha demands the most frequent and longest snuggles so she has a special place in my heart. They are all rescues from California, other than Missy who needed to be re-homed from her previous home in Edmonton. My photo also includes a fur friend (the big guy) who came to visit!
My perfect day would be spent with all my fur children and my Husband Tim at home in Calgary! Not very exciting but I am on the road seeing all your fur children all over the country most days so a simple day at home with my family is perfection!
Everything really! Being able to help people to do the best they can to care for their dogs mouths makes my day and seeing the impact we have made on so many lives is truly amazing. I also really love surprising dog owners who think their dogs will never lay still for us – it never gets old!
A mixed breed Chihuahua – just like my Chacha. I might take a minute to warm up to new people in my inner circle, but once I do I will love you for life! I love staying warm with lots of blankets and a good snuggle, I always stick up for my family and I LOVE food!
I have 5 fur children and believe it or not they are all the same as Robins. Suggie (Sugar) is my oldest fur child and the one that needs most love and attention from me. My old girl has me very well trained to get everything she wants, she is such a sweet gentle hearted soul. Our most recent addition is our new rescue kitty Big Papa. He’s the same size as two of our largest doggies but also the youngest. He’s everybody’s friend and loves to watch the birds from his favourite spot of the window ledge and tell us all about his stories when we get home every day. He now thinks he’s a dog and copies everything they do
Exploring and doing new things that can involve Robin and our doggies. They make everything fun and exciting, even Robin. A day relaxing in the garden, sun shining and the BBQ cooking with the whole family would top the list for sure
Meeting doggies everyday. Making new friends and winning over the most nervous of doggies is always very self rewarding. I also love seeing how proud every one of our little fur clients are of themselves after their visit with us
I would definitely be a Heinz 57. Being from the UK and now living in Canada that makes me somewhat of a mixed breed. Every time I go back to visit family in the UK they don’t understand my Canadian terminology that I’ve learned so I may as well be talking like a dog anyway
I have a dachshund named Olive!
Going for a morning hike and ending the day curled up on the couch with Olive watching a movie
I love meeting all the dogs and helping make their beautiful smiles a little brighter.
Might be bias (haha) but I think I would be a dachshund, small in nature but can leave a big impression.
My two boys are Gavin and Kayo. Gavin is a Siberian Husky/Rhodesian Ridgeback mix and Kayo is a Siberian Husky.
Any day that I can spend with my boys is a perfect day. Whether it’s hiking in the summer, dog sledding in the winter, or even just a trip to the dog park.
My favourite thing about working for K9 Gentle Dental is that we get to help so many dogs with their teeth and freshness of breath that ultimately, I think it does contribute to making their quality of life better.
I believe that people are attracted to certain breeds because the personality and qualities of the dog matches their own and their lifestyle. For some people it’s one breed and they have that breed for their whole life. Right now, if I were a dog it would be a Siberian Husky, but who knows what life will bring me in the future.
I have an Australian Cattle dog named Lily, a Greyhound mix named Olive, and a frisky feline named Juniper.
A perfect day for me would include a slow morning with hot coffee, followed by a long walk with my husband and dogs in the Edmonton River Valley, and an open afternoon for something spontaneous!
It’s been amazing to see the positive impact this service has on both the dogs and their owners. I really enjoy chatting with fellow pet parents and meeting so many different doggie personalities.
I’d have to say Greyhound. I love their gentle-hearted nature. They can be strong willed and determined to go after what they want, but also know how to relax, be a little goofy, and not take things too seriously.
I have three fur children, Jinger, Nala and Nessa, all of which are rescues! Nala is my sweet German Shepherd Rottweiler mix who has my dad wrapped around her paw. Jinger is our spunky cat who has not lost an ounce of energy as she has aged and our most recent addition to the family is my rescue horse Nessa. These three are always keeping me on my toes but I wouldn’t have it any other way!
My perfect day would definitely be spent with all of my animals! Nothing sounds better to me than going for a morning trail ride with Nessa, a hike with Nala and finally, being able to cozy up with Jinger in front of the fireplace with a book in hand.
One of my favorite things about working at K9 Gentle Dental is meeting all of your doggies! I love how I am able to connect and build trust with each of your pups and give them a comfortable and positive experience. Also, who doesn’t love those post cleaning kisses and snuggles?!
I would be a German Shorthaired Pointer! I love how energetic, intelligent, and affectionate these pups are. These dogs definitely reflect the lifestyle I want to live!
I currently don’t have a fur baby at my own home! I do however have a couple family fur babies! There’s Mr. Watson, he’s a Black Lab x German Shepherd mix. He’s my handsome old man! There’s also Dennis, he’s a sassy Shiba Inu x Jindo mix. I’ve also got a tuxedo cat named Cattoo at my moms house!
My perfect day would include relaxing at home with one of my favourite pups! Or relaxing in my parents backyard beside their pool
My favourite thing about working at K9 is meeting so many wonderful dogs, and seeing happy pups reunite with their owners! It is absolutely the cutest thing to see how excited they get!
If I was a dog breed I’d definitely be a Shiba Inu. They’re the perfect mix of introvert, and once warmed up to someone, extrovert! I love my friends and family time, and I also love my alone time!
My fur babies are Brynn and Tazz. Both are red Merle Australian Shepherds. Brynn is all about playing hard and Tazzy is much more into snuggles! They are amazing with their human sibling and take great care of her! We have a variety of other fur type babies around including horses, cows and kitties!
My perfect day is is going out early in the morning on the horses to check cows and fences. Spending some time in the field. Then being able to come home and spend the afternoon with my family, throwing the ball for the dogs and having a nice fire and home cooked meal for supper with everyone.
I get to spend all day with dogs! What could be better? Also I love working for a local company and I enjoy spending time with my all my coworkers. Spending time with the dogs makes going to work so fun!
I would be a sheepdog. I enjoy spending time outside, I’m loyal and moving cattle all day is my forte!
I have one fur baby – Zed! He is a very long strawberry blonde cat, weighing in at a whopping 17 lbs. We think he’s part Maine Coone, Tabby and Bad Boy.
On my days off I like to stay active with my fiancé and hike, go for a nice trail walk or hit the gym. I also have a creative side, and love painting, pottery and crochet! On the perfect night in we love having friends over for dinner parties and board games.
I love meeting so many different people and doggie personalities! The stories we hear are inspiring, and no day is a dull moment.
I would for sure be a Jack Russel. I wake up with a crazy amount of energy, always have something to run around and do, am not afraid to express myself, and will stick up for myself and my family/friends.
I have two doggies but would have sooo many animals if it wasn’t for my sane husband being a voice of reason. There is Harley, my ten year old trailer park dog. He is a havanese yorkie shih tzu mix and he literally and figuratively has the biggest heart ever! And Zeppelin who is almost five and is a spunky yorkie brussels mix and he is OBSESSED with Harley.
My perfect day would be a day spent back at home in the Okanagan, with my doggies and husband, a quiet hike, eating fresh fruit and vegetables, and enjoying beautiful water, sand, and the sunshine.
Every day I get to experience the boundless love and joy of your furry furiends! It is incredibly rewarding and I am so grateful to have the opportunity to work with your dogs and brighten their pearly whites, all while they bring smiles to my face.
I think I would be my dog Zeppelin. He has way too much energy, and is always down to do anything or go anywhere. He is also obsessed with his sibling Harley, and would do anything to protect him – I’m a big sister and am the same way!
I have a terrier mix named Jackie, and a chinese crested named Pippin! Both of them are rescues and are the best little adventure buddies. I also have a horse called Shatir!
My perfect day would be going for a ride with Shatir, walking the dogs in the river valley, getting coffee and then watching a movie or gaming at home!
I love getting to meet so many different breeds and meeting all their different personalities! I also love getting to work with dogs!
I would probably be a Jack Russel or a terrier cross! I love how athletic, smart, driven and cuddly they are!
