Paws Outdoors, Bridgwater

Paws Outdoors, Bridgwater Dog Walking Services I went on to rescue and rehabilitate wild seals at a seal sanctuary in Lincolnshire and train sealions at a zoological park in North Devon.

I grew up in Surrey and moved away when I was nineteen to go to De Montfort University in Lincolnshire, graduating in 2002 with a BSc (Honours) First Class degree in Animal Science (Behaviour). In my late twenties I swapped my animal career for a career in finance, ending up in Bridgwater working as a Management Accountant for EDF Energy for over ten years. Another decade on and another life chang

ing decision - to step away from the rat race and focus on job satisfaction (full circle really!) - and so I set up my own dog walking business, Paws Outdoors, in 2021. I have even been back to college to complete an Introduction to Canine Behaviour course and a Canine First Aid course. Over a year on and it's the best decision I ever made - spending my days with our amazing Staffordshire Bull Terrier Hugo and all of the wonderful dogs that are now part of the Paws Outdoors family. I cannot help but smile when I watch them running and playing in the fields and streams in and around our wonderful town. Thank you to all my wonderful clients and their dogs for making Paws Outdoors what it is today and to my amazing friends and family for giving me the courage to follow my dreams :)

We’ve had two lovely walks today - the crazy gang were out early before the day warmed up and a lovely forest walk with one of my favourite ladies after that. Finished the day off with a home visit for a bulldog that just loves his paddling pool!! Huge thanks to all today’s clients for their flexibility with some last minute scheduling changes. Hopefully things start to cool down again now 🫠🤞🏻

A free recall training course coming soon with Bridgwater Dog Training 🐾 🤩

💬 Free two week comprehensive recall video resources💬

For two weeks we will be uploading daily videos covering all the steps we use to help build bombproof recall.

As Pip already has good recall now I decided to take a client, who's dog doesn't have recall, through the process and film the coaching. You'll be joining Tasha and Korra on their recall journey- Korra is a GSD mix who is a member of the BDT Reactivity Community.

I hope this helps people look at the steps needed to bombproof recall with their dog.

Starting Monday 25th May. I hope you all enjoy! 👀

At this time of year, we start to notice lots of posts circulating social media regarding rapeseed; these posts are shared extensively and can understandably worry many dog owners. The posts usually state that rapeseed is highly poisonous to dogs, and can cause signs including haemolytic anaemia, blindness, damaged nervous system, digestive disorders and breathing problems.

The signs mentioned are typically only seen in grazing animals, and most dogs actually remain asymptomatic after exposure to rapeseed. Dogs can develop gastrointestinal upset if they have ingested some of the plant, and there have been reports of skin reactions which resemble burns, but this is extremely rare and does not happen to every dog which comes into contact with it.
