We have now made Cedar Ridge into a Complete
Canine Care Facility. We are working on it everyday-we still
have SO much to complete to have it to where we want it. Every
time you come you will see changes!
 
We started doing animal rescue in 2003 &
Collie rescue in 2004. We now soley focus on the Collies.

Sabrina has done many jobs- Horse stables, Feed
stores, Petsitting, working with dogs & farm animals and
even a Correctional Officer. Her goal was to become a veterinarian
but after observing the long tiring hours and wanting more
time for her own animals she started the Complete Canine Care
facility. She is VERY excited about building the business.
Sabrina is putting all her years of animal experience &
behaviour, as well as certification in Dog Grooming &
Dog Training, into play for the business.
     
Sabrina's hobbies include hockey, hanging out
with the animals, photography, arts & crafts and she has
taken a new liking to gardening. There is really only time
now for the animals & photography of clients! Rob &
Sabrina also enjoy working on the farm together-building,
repairing or manicuring!

Rob is now Sabrina's grooming assitant &
runs the boarding/daycare. He used to work outside of the
home as a Teacher's Assistant, working with special needs
children. He also works in the After school care program.
    
Rob is the 'handy man' around the farm-he has
renovated our house & shop and continues to do wonderful
projects for our property. Rob's hobbies revolve mostly around
cars! He is a Mustang fanatic! Sabrina & Rob met playing
hockey-again due to time & Rob's knee injury we simply
don't get out to play any more. If we ever have a moment to
spare we like to explore the island's caves, kayak, play badminton
and take the dog's to the river.

  
This page is also to keep family and friends updated on our
son and our family. Colton IS 5! Getting more and more stubborn
by the day, he does come by it honestly! His speech is now
coming fast and furious. Quite a mimick and quite the entertainer.
He loves "running" the business! He greets customers
and is the resident dog whisperer! He is in Kindergarten-loves
being with the kids but doesn't listen very well!
    
We received Colton's diagnoses in 2005-he has Crouzon's Syndrome.
This is a Craniofacial syndrome that should not effect his
mental abilities only his facial features, hearing, vision,
dental structure and skull growth. "In addition to craniosynostosis
(premature closing of the skull sutures)these children also
have fusion of the sutures or bones in the cranial base and
midface, and shallow eye sockets. This gives the appearance
of a flat midface and eyes which protrude."
