The Secure Dog: Safety, Trust, & Successful Transitions
Join All Dogs Gym and Granite State Dog Recovery for a collaborative workshop on
building a lifelong, secure partnership with your new companion.
What to Expect
This two-part session covers the “why” and “how” of a safe transition:
● Part 1: Real-Life Recovery Stories (Granite State Dog Recovery)
○ Learn from real cases of lost dogs and get expert tips on prevention.
● Part 2: Successful Integration (All Dogs Gym)
○ Proper Gear: Why equipment like Martingales or harnesses matters —and why
to avoid flexi-leashes.
○ The Home Setup: Preparing crates, yards, and car safety.
○ The Decompression Period: Navigating the first day, introducing kids or other
pets safely, and building trust and partnership with your new companion.
○ Avoiding Mistakes: Understanding why “too much freedom too soon” can
backfire.
The Goal: Transitioning from “getting a dog” to truly “living with a dog.”
