We all love to take our dogs to explore the world and specifically join our boat adventures. Let`s just don`t forget our dog`s well-being and safety during this exhausting environment we are taking our best friends to. So to make sure you get the maximum of enjoy on a boat tour with your dog, we listed 3 safety tips below:
– Keep a plan in mind in case your dogs goes overboard: If you are not confident enough on your own swimming skills, you should have a plan B;
– Invest in a life jacket: This will considerably increase the chance of an easy rescue in case of an emergency.
– Use common sense: No speeding, provide fresh water and know your dog`s limit are some basics.

June 29th – July 7th, 2019 is National Fishing Week in Canada. The purpose of this week will be to encourage Canadians to get out and appreciate wetting a line in one of Canada’s million lakes, rivers and creeks. There is not any need for a fishing permit for the 2 weekends bookending the week.
Unfortunately, those who fish often don’t consider themselves as Boaters and, like boating and boating safety frequently take second place to the key purpose of being on the water….to fish.
The Canadian Safe Boating Council has taken up this challenge and, During National Fishing Week, will kick-off an app known as “Hooked on Lifejackets”. This initiative will focus on boosting the most basic of protected boating behaviours and one which has the greatest potential to save lives…wearing a lifejacket.
