Marley's Mutts UK - Dog Training & Behaviour

This is heartbreaking and so true. Every single dog owner is guilty of this on some level. Just do one thing extra tomorrow and see that joy in their face. And hopefully you'll realise that smile won't always be there, but your couch and Netflix probably will.

Did you have a cup of coffee or tea this morning?
Did you call a friend to catch up?
Watch your favorite show on Netflix?
Take a painkiller when you had a headache?
Go to the gym?
Treat yourself after dinner?
You probably did multiple of these. You can take care of your own needs whenever you choose.
Your dog cannot.
Your dog cannot decide to meet their social needs. They cannot go outside and walk off their energy. They cannot grab a snack or a chew when they’re bored.
They cannot call a doctor when they don’t feel well. They cannot choose to go for a run, see their friends or go swim on their own.
Dogs are captive animals. They depend on us to meet EVERY need in their lives.
And what amazes me is how patient and hopeful they are about it.
They wait for us to take them on a walk. They wait for us to fill their bowl. They wait for us to give them play, comfort, and care.
Sometimes, we forget how extraordinary this relationship is. We forget the sheer weight and privilege of being someone’s entire world.
It's a huge, precious responsibility.
Their lives are so short. And in that short time, they rely on us for everything. And yet they do it SO joyfully, meeting us each day with hope, love, and excitement.
In return, they give us friendship, fun and endless happiness.
Take a moment to just appreciate how extraordinary that is.
So here’s my challenge to you: stop scrolling.
Close Facebook. Put your phone down.
And just take your dog for another walk (today, and every other single day.)
Don’t leave them crated for hours on end. Give them chances to run, sniff, chew, play, and just be your friend.
Because remember: they cannot do ANY of this on their own. Not one single thing. Every need they have depends on you.
Their whole precious life is in your hands.
It's your amazing privilege to make it the very best one.
With the most walks, games, adventures, playtimes and memories.
Don’t ever waste that chance to make it the most amazing life.

Had an amazing afternoon walking these two beautiful boys in a secure field in Woldingham today. Thank You 🙏 Doggy Digs - Enclosed Field.

They are both living in kennels and are being loved and looked after by the wonderful Steven Bell who owns and runs the most fabulous local rescue centre alongside his dog boarding and cattery business Birchwood Lodge Kennels and Cattery.

But he only has so much space, time and resources. That is where you come in.

If you're a dog walker, dog trainer or any pet professional really, with your own pet business insurance, you can help.

He needs help walking the rescue dogs and is desperate for them to have more time out of their kennels and to be in enriching areas having fun and just being a dog. Some have been there so long they only feel safe in their kennel! That is not ok.

If you can't offer your time, please offer your support.

❤️🐾❤️

Football Nets injure and kill foxes, other wildlife and animals if not rolled up.

Please everyone have a read and see if you can help. This is the most amazing charity and the most rewarding thing you could do.

If anyone has any gardens, land or fields that could be used please get in touch.

They'll set up the enclosure for you. Provide the food and bedding and all you need to do is clean it out daily and provide fresh food and water. It really is that simple.

URGENT APPEAL: HELP PINGU AND HER FOSTER SIBLINGS REACH THEIR WILD DREAMS

Many of our rescued fox cub groups have moved onto their soft-release sites — the penultimate step towards giving them a second chance at life in the wild. But now, we face a critical shortage of suitable release sites for six of our youngest groups still in foster care.

WE NEED YOUR HELP — COULD YOU MAKE A DIFFERENCE?

We'd love to hear from you, if you’re in beds, bucks, essex, hants, herts, kent, middlesex, surrey, sussex, or rural areas of london, and you have:

✅ private rural land
✅ located away from busy roads
✅ free from hunts and shootings
✅ without an existing litter of cubs

And best of all — this comes at no financial cost to you. We supply the enclosure, food and all necessary supplies.

There’s nothing more rewarding than witnessing those young foxes take their first confident steps back into freedom. Seeing them begin to explore, hunt, and thrive in the wild is an experience like no other.

CAN YOU MAKE A DIFFERENCE AND BE THE REASON THESE LITTLE SOULS FIND THEIR WAY BACK TO THE WILD?

Please contact us now at [email protected] and help give these orphans the safe future they deserve.

Please offer this beautiful boy a loving home. No fault of his own and by all accounts, is a snuggle bug (we all need one of those) ❤️

UPDATE: Adopted!

CAN YOU OFFER GORGEOUS DAVY A SUITABLE FOREVER HOME!!

This sweet boy was handed over to us after his previous owner found their daughter was allergic.

We were told he was around 8 months old but he is a big boy! So wouldn't be surprised if he was around a year old.

He is so sweet and meows at you for attention!

We are looking for a home with a private garden on a safe road.

If you would like to offer Davy a suitable forever home message Katie on 07547830646

Goodbye drink with the pups Tom & Liz at our favourite country pub, after a session at All Seasons Safari Keston. It's amazing how much love you have for dogs after only a few hours, never mind a few days of looking after them ❤️🐾❤️

Thank you to Allseasons paw park for another amazing experience. Safari Park today which they absolutely loved. Liz decided to jump into the watering hole at 7.52 and then have Zoomies where we had to stop her running into the sandpit 🤦‍♀️

Please share far and wide to bring this beauty home. Could you imagine if this was your pup, you'd be out of your mind with worry.

Lost in East London 🐾

Volunteering each week for this charity is amazing. Getting to see firsthand how dedicated and passionate the staff and volunteers are about animal welfare and of course the stars of the show, the beautiful foxes and fox cubs, who are lucky enough to have been rescued and cared for by this fabulous team.

The Fox Project ❤️🦊

25/05/2025

If you're reading this and you can help out, please do. I've just joined The Fox Project as a volunteer nearly 3 weeks ago and am loving it. I'm based in Pembury where the fox cubs rescued are nursed back to health, before going to lovely foster homes, where they will be released back into the wild (as wild as you can call it that is!) to begin their journey

If you're an animal lover and have a soft spot for foxes, especially fox cubs, please get in touch.

The Fox Project does the most amazing work with more support needed every day, so please help if you can. If you can't foster, then please donate as they are always in need of food, medicine, bedding and ongoing support.

Thank You 🦊

🙏 CAN YOU MAKE AMBER AND HARVEY'S DREAM THEIR REALITY?

'Amber' and 'Harvey' are just two of the over 130 rescued cubs in our foster system, eagerly anticipating their return to the wild. However, to make their dream a reality, we need your help!

We are currently in need of release sites for 10 groups of five rescued cubs.

Do you have private, safe, rural/semi-rural land away from main roads and hunters that is free of wild-raised cubs this year? Are you located in Beds, Bucks, Essex, Hants, Herts, Kent, Middlesex, Surrey, Sussex, or rural areas of London?

If so, please consider offering a temporary sanctuary for a group of 5 cubs in a pen that we will construct on your property. (Photo in comments) They will need feeding and cleaning for 2 weeks as they prepare for release, and there may be a need for ongoing support for up to 2 weeks after their release. In return, you will have the opportunity to witness their amazing initial moments of freedom and experience the joy of seeing them thrive in their natural habitat.

There is no cost to you, and we will be there to offer guidance and support every step of the way.

👉 Please join us in giving these foxes a second chance at freedom—contact us today at [email protected] to offer your support!

After a lovely walk around the park this morning, we stopped off for a coffee and doggy sausage. To say Juno liked it was an understatement.

Anyone living near this area in Biggin Hill lost a beautiful cat who's now at the emergency vet's? Please share and let's get this gorgeous girls owner found ❤️

Georgina Mott can you please share to all your local groups and friends x
