After the huge success last year, we are pleased to announce that the memory tree in our Brackla Hospital has returned. All of the funds raised will be evenly distributed to a number of charities that we work alongside.

It's a lovely opportunity to honour a much-missed pet whilst helping raise much needed funds for these local charities.

If you can't make it in to see us, you can donate online, leaving a message on the donation, and we can add your star to the tree for you. Suggested minimum donation £2.

We already have a few dedicated stars but would love to fill our tree with the memories of your beloved pets, whilst raising money for small animal charities across South Wales.

You can pop in to donate and dedicate your star or you can donate online using the justgiving link below and we will do it on your behalf.

We also have a photo opportunity in Brackla, and would love for you to take pictures of your beloved pets. Feel free to tag us online.

Iʼm raising money to support animals. Support this JustGiving Crowdfunding Page.

🌟Tuesdays Tips 🌟

Dog Etiquette 🐾🐕‍🦺🐩🦮

🌟Pick up💩after your dog and dispose of correctly.
🌟Keep dogs on leads around livestock.
🌟Ask an owner if it’s ok to stroke a dog before doing so.
🌟Don’t let your off lead dog go and pester a dog on a lead. It’s on a lead for a reason.
🌟Respect personal space .
🌟Be aware of your surroundings.
🌟Control excitable behaviour.
🌟Have compassion/understanding with owners with reactive dogs.
🌟Retractable leads can be dangerous make sure you allways have the safety lock on.
🌟 Take a variety of high value treats with you to reward great recalls, walking nicely – and to keep your dog focussed on you.
🌟Don’t Spend hours doing repetitive ball throwing – this is damaging to joints and not particularly good for your dog’s brain either, as they can get over-aroused but physically tired, which can lead to all kinds of behaviour problems .
🌟Teach a good recall.
