Turtle Gardens Animal Rescue
Turtle Gardens has Rescued and placed almost 4000 animals since we opened our doors to unwanted pets. Each is vaccinated upon arrival if needed, wormed, fed premium dog food, spayed or neutered and started in basic obedience training. We use positive reinforcement training. Dogs thrive on clicker training. They learn HOW to learn. They learn what behaviour earned them a treat and are very quick to repeat it, be it a sit, walk on loose leash or come when called. All important to learn and continue. Our logo is the little shelter with heart but our policy is slow and steady, there IS a home for every pet.

Well Mamma Yvette, it looks like we missed a good one. Now, that really shouldn’t surprise us. Turtle Garden’s Reunions are always a blast! How could they be anything but that. These dogs all come from your loving home and are placed in such perfect families. It’s so good to meet with all those people who support what you and Daddy Dave do. Reuniting is always going to be one more of the greatest day ever for these dogs and their families. ...

It was awesome! It was great! It was hot and sunny and the dogs had a blast. According to the sign-in sheet there were 29 humans and 32 dogs, but I'm pretty sure we missed a few. Only mainlanders were Dave and Brian, Lisa B, and Dahlia and Dennis. Islanders came from Victoria and Nanaimo, Quadra Island and Saltspring Island, Courtenay, Campbell River, Cowichan Bay, Duncan, Cobble Hill, Nanoose Bay, Lantzville, and of course Crofton.
We got over $300 in...

Heavy frost at Turtle Gardens
From Turtle Gardens Animal Rescue, 9 month ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles
It was darn cold yesterday -3 is not warm but quite pretty with everything covered with a heavy coating of white. It is just as cold this morning. The summer that wasn’t is going straight into Fall bypassing first nation summer too. My sister now living in Newfoundland tells me it is because of the big earthquakes have tilted the axis of the earth and that is the reason for all the climate change. I need to watch more TV – I rarely turn it on while...
