⭐️⭐️⭐️ CUSTOMER NOTICE ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Good morning everyone! We hope you’ve all had a lovely weekend and half term.

Unfortunately, we’ve arrived at work this morning to find that a vehicle has been dumped across our entrance.

We’ve had a few calls asking if we’re open or if we’ve closed, so we’d like to reassure everyone that WE ARE OPEN AS NORMAL and operating as usual.

We’re currently working to have the vehicle moved as quickly as possible and appreciate your patience while we resolve the situation.

Thank you for your understanding, and we’re sorry for any inconvenience caused, we’re not pleased about it either! 🐾

Meet Daisy the Jug (Jack Russell Terrier × Pug)

This little one popped in looking for a way to beat the heat and left with the last cooling mat in stock! 😅 Don’t worry though, more are already on the way!

Breed fact: Jugs are often known for their playful, energetic personalities. Thanks to their Jack Russell heritage, they tend to be more active and adventurous than the average Pug, making them great little companions for families who enjoy getting out and about.

Another one from the camera roll, although it definitely feels like the temperature is starting to drop now!

Meet Bella the Staffordshire Bull Terrier

This beauty popped in for everything ostrich! Stocking up on ostrich pâté, a dino bone, tendons, and wing tips. Safe to say she left one very happy customer!

Breed fact: Staffordshire Bull Terriers have one of the strongest bite forces relative to their size and are incredibly muscular and athletic dogs. Their compact build gives them impressive power, endurance, and agility.

Keeping up the theme of trawling through the camera roll, as once again there’s been no dogs visiting in today’s heat! ☀️🥵

This time it’s Athena the Doberman

She came in for a collar fitting and left with a stylish new leather collar! We don’t think she overly enjoyed the fact that her favourite corner of the shop is no longer full of beds though 😂

Fun fact: Dobermans were originally bred in Germany as protection dogs and are known for being incredibly loyal, intelligent, and affectionate with their families

Raw treats? What’s all the fuss about? 🦴🐾

Frozen meaty treats can be a fantastic way to add enrichment, variety, and natural chewing satisfaction to your dog’s routine. From sprats and duck feet to marrow bones and ribs, these treats can provide mental stimulation while supporting natural chewing behaviours.

Some potential benefits of raw meaty treats include:
✨ Mental enrichment and boredom relief
✨ Natural chewing satisfaction
✨ Support for healthy teeth through chewing action
✨ Nutrients like protein, calcium, phosphorus, collagen, and omega 3s depending on the treat

☀️ HOT WEATHER PRO TIP ☀️
On warm days, frozen bones and meaty treats can work like a doggy “ice lolly” helping keep your pup cool, occupied, and entertained for longer.

⚠️ Safety first:
• Always supervise chewing
• Choose appropriately sized bones for your dog
• Avoid cooked bones
• Some dense bones may risk tooth fractures in strong chewers
• Introduce new treats gradually

Not every treat suits every dog… chewing style, age, size, and experience all matter 🐶

Natural chews, happy dogs

Another one from the archives as the heat seems here to stay ☀️🐾

This beautiful German Shorthaired Pointer popped in for some frozen marrow bones last week, the absolute perfect treat to help keep your dogs cool this summer 🦴❄️

Fun fact: German Shorthaired Pointers were originally bred as all purpose hunting dogs and are known for their endless energy, intelligence, and love of the outdoors! 🤎
