About Dogs on Gabriola
Launched in July 2016, Dogs on Gabriola is a volunteer community project with the purpose to gather and share dog-specific information with dog-loving Gabriola residents and visitors, in order to enhance the lives of dogs.
In the spirit of community, this is a volunteer project and all listings are provided for free.
A special thank you to Gabriola resident, Deb Scott, for the brainstorming session, contacts and all-around, general Gabriola dog knowledge.

FAQs
My company isn't dog-related and because it's a home-based business, I have no place to welcome dogs, but I have a dog and absolutely love all dogs! Isn't that enough to be listed too?
Thank you for caring for your dog and loving all dogs! We've kept this website focused on dog-specific information and dog-specific links as a way to directly enhance the lives of dogs. There are other Gabriola business-listing websites that are more general in nature and may be a better match for you.
I have a dog-related business in Nanaimo and a friend has a non-dog business but she welcomes dogs. Since many Gabriola residents visit Nanaimo with their dogs, Can we be listed too?
Thank you so much for providing dog services, and to your friend for welcoming dogs into her business. We love Nanaimo! But we've decided to keep this website focused specifically on-island. Who knows, that may change in the future, but for now, we don't have Nanaimo listings. But hey, we encourage you to create your own "Dogs in Nanaimo" website and we can swap reciprocal website links!
I HAVE AN ONLINE DOG-RELATED BUSINESS ELSEWHERE BUT LOTS OF FAMILY AND FRIENDS ON GABRIOLA SO I VISIT OFTEN. CAN I BE LISTED TOO?
Aren't online businesses great? Once you move over to Gabriola and become a permanent resident (it'll probably happen eventually because family and friends have a way of pulling over family and friends), we'd be thrilled to add your then-Gabriola-based online dog business. In the meantime, we're always interested in other online dog-related businesses, so feel free to email me your website for my own curiosity!
Is Dogs on Gabriola on Facebook, twitter or other social media?
No. The website is a volunteer project with the intention to create a website with listings and resources of a more permanent basis rather than day-to-day social media-based interactions. The Gabian Dogs Facebook group is an excellent resource for day-to-day information, interactive Q&As and more.... a great group of Gabriola dog lovers can be found over there!
Can I send you a photo of my dog on Gabriola for the website?
Yes! We have a Photos webpage and if you have a horizontal photo of your dog playing on Gabriola or otherwise living the island life, you can complete our Photo Submission Form. We also have an "In Memory" photo webpage, so if you have said your final goodbye to your Gabriola dog and wish to display their photo for the community, we will share it with grace and honour. Please use the Photo Submission Form too.
