DOG SAFETY WORKSHOP POP-UP!
with Tracy Vicente, CPDT-KA of The Grateful Dog
Saturday, May 10th at 5:00 PM
@ So Fetch Canine Social Club

Join us for our very first Dog Safety Pop-Up — a hands-on, practical workshop led by Certified Professional Dog Trainer, Tracy Vicente. This session is designed to help pup parents feel more confident and equipped when navigating emergency situations out in the real world.

What you’ll learn in 60mins:
• Defensive handling in emergency situations
• Tips for safer, more aware city navigation
• Off-leash dog defense strategies
• Fight breakup techniques

Cost: $20 per dog
Trainer: Tracy Vicente, CPDT-KA | the-grateful-dog.ca

After the workshop, stick around for an open Q&A session — bring your stories, questions, and concerns. We’ll talk through real-life situations and brainstorm future safety pop-ups based on your needs.

Why this matters:
This pop-up was inspired by a recent downtown incident involving Sayje — one of our own in-house dogs and the official food taster of So Fetch! During a routine walk, an off-leash dog broke free and charged at her. The moment was terrifying, but thankfully Sayje is okay (and back to her usual taste-testing duties).

It was a reminder that these moments can happen to anyone, anytime — and being prepared can make all the difference.

Let’s keep our pups safe, our walks peaceful, and our community empowered.
