Wow! What a great weekend we had at the Dogs SA Blackhawk Winter International! ❄️

We were thrilled to see not only just dog owners, but their pups visit us and have fun at our mini Zen Den.

Thank you to everyone who made a purchase or even came in for a chat! As a small business owner, we rely on our community. Thank you for becoming a part of it 🥰

We also would love to show our appreciation for Dogs SA for holding this event, fellow Zen Den lover and friend Amelie and to our stall neighbours for assisting over the weekend! ❤️

What a great 4 days! Thank you for allowing us to come and trial our first pop up Zen Den, it’s been lots of fun! 🐾

It was lovely to meet and chat to many people passionate about enriching their pets lives 🥰

Now to take all our stock, shelving, signage and Zen Den obstacles back to the shop! 😅

An amazing turn out despite the weather! Thank you it’s been good to see many familiar faces 🥰
Tomorrow is the last day of the show and the weather should be much nicer! ☀️
See you there!

1 more sleep!

We’re all set up and ready to go! 🐾
I’ll be on the road around 6am and you can believe I’ve already figured out where to get a coffee on the way 😅

Thank you for the kind words and support from those who know.
My heart cat Bean has likely suffered from a stroke two days ago and so it’s been a rather stressful and overwhelming few days juggling this and the business - especially leading up to the Winter International.

We will be trying a number of things to help with his recovery but in the meantime time he is comfortable.

I apologise if it takes me a little longer to reply to messages and emails. I will get back to you!

As I’m typing this, my husband is driving us to Dogs SA to set up the stall and pop up Zen Den.
I’m looking forward to seeing many dogs over the next few days! It’ll be a good distraction I think.

Thank you all for understanding.
Emily
