If your dog struggles with fireworks, here’s the truth: you cannot fix it on Bonfire Night. By the time the first bang happens, their nervous system is already in fight-or-flight mode. Once they’re there, no treat, cuddling or loud TV will switch them off.
Why? Because anxiety isn’t just “in the mind” – it runs through the gut–brain axis. When a dog is stressed, the gut sends danger signals to the brain via the vagus nerve. That keeps them wired and unable to settle.
If you want a calmer dog on Fireworks Night, you must start now by supporting the gut and nervous system.
✅ Most dogs benefit from a daily pre & probiotic – a balanced gut helps regulate stress, recovery and emotional control.

It’s unpleasant, but it happens – and more often than most owners want to admit. The behaviour is called coprophagia, and while it might look like a dirty habit, it can actually be a sign of an underlying gut issue.
𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐨𝐧 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐝𝐨𝐠𝐬 𝐞𝐚𝐭 𝐩𝐨𝐨:
* Poor digestion – food isn’t properly broken down
* Low nutrient absorption – their body goes searching for what it’s missing
* Gut microbiome imbalance – not enough “good bacteria”
* Enzyme deficiency – common in processed diets
* Stress, anxiety or boredom – yes, behaviour still plays a part

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐆𝐮𝐭 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧
When digestion is poor, undigested food particles end up in the stool – and to a dog, that can still smell like dinner. This isn’t just about bad manners or lack of training. Fix the gut, and the behaviour often improves.

𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐂𝐚𝐧 𝐇𝐞𝐥𝐩?
Supporting gut function is one of the most effective first steps. That’s why we formulated Gut Health for Dogs from Maximum Animal Health – a targeted pre and probiotic blend designed to:
✅ Support healthy digestion
✅ Improve nutrient absorption
✅ Balance the gut microbiome
✅ Reduce scavenging habits
✅ Support overall wellbeing

We were very proud to be asked to be one of the sponsors for the Cambridgeshire Field Trial Society

Cambridgeshire Field Trial

Today, Monday, 13th October, 2025, we held our first trial of the season, a novice retriever trial on the Cokenach Estate, in north Hertfordshire , by kind permission of the estate owners and Kenneth Grant Esq.

This is a beautiful estate, immaculately kept, with a sweepingly impressive entrance, we were truly thankful for this our third visit to the estate. After the trial, we gave Kenneth a token of our appreciation.

At the end of the day, we were asked if we would like to return again next year for another Retriever trial, we must be doing something right and are very grateful for the offer to use such a fantastic ground.

The estate keeper is Tom day, the estate keeper for 14+ years, the perfect gent with his team of beaters, gave us a steady flow of birds, he was given a token of our appreciation too.

I would like thank Tim Hankey’s FTMS system, which makes a Ft Sec’s job so much easier, was lovely to receive feedback today, seems I’m possibly the only FT Sec who uses its e-mail ability to keep triallers updated with card movements, maybe others have not found it, its so easy to use.

Our Cambridgeshire Field Trial Society cups for this trial were:

The Eric Simpson Memorial Cup for the Winner
The J Farrow Silver Pheasants for Guns’ Choice
The Stetchworth Trophy for the Best Black Labrador Bitch
The Society also gave prize money for 1st to third place.

Our sponsors this season are the pillar of support to the trialling world Skinner's, who provided vouchers 1st – 3rd places and certificates.

Thanks to committee members, we have three additional sponsors, Dog & Field, Maximum Health for Dogs, & Test Valley Lanyards, who gave various gifts to our placed dogs, – hope first place had room for the dog goodies on the homeward journey. We have tried to get a group photo with the sponsors items for you to see.
Arrival this morning was slightly misty, could be called low cloud, so everyone donned a waterproof jacket, the weather got better as the trial got underway but slightly later than expected

Our judges for the day were Mrs Glynis Hillier (A 2280), Mr Peter Hurst (B 927), Mr Robert Clitheroe (NP), Mr Mick Elsey (NP3698), an excellent team who worked well together, giving us a great result, our Society gave each a token of our appreciation for efforts.

Judges feed back – “Lovely birds, good for a driven trial, guns shot well.”

Our guns, were a terrific bunch, sourced by committee member Paul Wheeler and myself. We thank each for their great shooting and financial support for the day, without you the trail would not have taken place. We had only two drives but they landed 51 birds on the first and got the bag on the button on the second. Our stars for the day were Messers Mike Lawrence, Tom Dewey-Jessener, Stewart Debnam, Liam Coleman, Guy Widgett, Mark Barratt, Ian Barthomew & Mrs Sally Sturt.

The team of helpers were Arthur Cook, Steve Bancroft, Anthony Peters, Roy Jarman, Fiona Joint, Debra Goodman, and Lisa Murrell who acted as our dog steward, each were rewarded with a small token of our appreciation.

On the first drive, we had a couple of ducks followed by a steady flow of birds, landing on drill, rough grass land and a paddock ( usually for sheep, not the polo ponies. Due to the geography of the first drive with a ditch and wire fence Glynis and Peter decided to do Odds and evens for the first round so that dogs didn’t cross through fallen birds, it worked well with a variety of retrieves, but with 51 birds down, most had 2 retrieves each - though we lost 8 dogs.

We moved to the second drive which was a drilled field with cover to the right with woodland behind.

The six dogs through were reduced to 4 with the loss of Phil Garton and Jennifer Hookham. Jennifer Thomas had run an extremely good trial but was lost on her 5th retrieve though the cover and onto the grass-land beyond.

So we were left with three dogs, we had three rounds with a total of 5 retrieves, it was a pleasure to watch these dogs work, the results were:

1. Andrew Mutimer with Gingerfox Vanguard Of Kanzanglaze taking the Eric Simpson Memorial Cup and guns choice.

2. Matthew Shetliffe with Lanefoot Bailey Of Bobernwood,

3. Harriet Newcombe with Idawood Lace Of Galicombe taking the Stetchworth Trophy for the Best Black Labrador Bitch - think this was her first trial and only called into line on Sunday afternoon – Harriet managed to re-arrange her work to compete with us today.

Andrew just has time to get his entry in for our Open in a few weeks time.

I would personally like to thank everyone for their support in making this trial work, I shuffle the paperwork, but without our host and his keeper, guns, judge, helpers and well humored triallers the day wouldn’t flow as well, and it certainly wouldn’t work without Ftms.

When you bring a new puppy home, you want them to settle, grow and thrive. A big part of that starts in the gut. A healthy gut doesn’t just help digestion — it supports behaviour, immunity, growth and emotional wellbeing too.

There are many benefits to using a daily pre & probiotic, but the ones new puppy owners tell us they notice most are:
✅ Calmer, more settled behaviour
✅ Better resilience to new experiences and training
✅ Fewer tummy upsets during weaning and food changes
✅ Firmer, healthier stools
✅ Stronger natural immune support
✅ Fresher breath and better overall condition

That’s why so many owners choose Maximum Gut Health for Dogs — a simple daily supplement designed to support puppies from the inside out.

🐾 𝗕𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀 — 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗶𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘆𝗼𝘂
We’ve recently been approached by a number of responsible breeders asking about adding Maximum Gut Health to their puppy packs. If you're a breeder who already uses our gut health product, or would like to offer it to give your pups a smoother start in their new homes, get in touch for details.

This isn’t just a human issue it can also be something that your dogs can feel too.

𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗱𝗼𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗹𝗱 𝗱𝗮𝗺𝗽 𝘄𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗮𝗻 𝗲𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝗼𝗻 𝗷𝗼𝗶𝗻𝘁𝘀?:-
Cold temperatures tighten muscles and tissues, circulation slows, and damp, low-pressure days make inflamed joints swell more. Add in less exercise during bad weather, and stiffness quickly sets in.

That’s why autumn and winter are the toughest seasons for joint comfort.

𝗗𝗼𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗼𝗻𝗹𝘆 𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗹𝘆 𝘁𝗼 𝗼𝗹𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝗱𝗼𝗴𝘀?
No. While age makes joint issues more common, younger and active dogs can feel the effects too. Hard ground, long walks, and slippery conditions all put extra strain on joints, ligaments, and cartilage—especially when muscles are cold and circulation is reduced.

That’s why supporting joint health early isn’t just for senior dogs. Protecting mobility, reducing strain, and keeping joints cushioned matters for every dog—whatever their age.

Maximum Joint Health for Dogs is formulated to keep joints cushioned, lubricated, and supported when they need it most. We don’t just add ingredients for the sake of a label—we include them at levels that actually make a difference.

With glucosamine, MSM, hyaluronic acid, Boswellia, ASU, and key vitamins and minerals, it works to protect cartilage, reduce inflammation, and support smooth, comfortable movement.

🐶💚 Puppy Power Starts in the Gut 💚🐶
All these gorgeous pups are already on Maximum Gut Health for Dogs — and it shows! Not only are they getting the best start for growth, digestion, and immunity, but they’re also building resilience for the big move when they leave mum at 8 weeks.

That transition can be stressful, but with a strong, supported gut microbiome, these little ones are better prepared to settle into their new homes with energy, confidence, and wagging tails.

👉 Because a healthy gut today = a calmer, happier pup tomorrow.

“𝐇𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐭𝐡𝐲 𝐆𝐮𝐭, 𝐇𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐲 𝐏𝐚𝐰𝐬.”

Dogs that chew or lick their paws aren’t always dealing with just a skin problem — often, it starts in the gut. Poor gut health can trigger inflammation, and the skin reacts quickly, leaving paws sore and itchy.

That’s why at 𝗠𝗮𝘅𝗶𝗺𝘂𝗺 𝗔𝗻𝗶𝗺𝗮𝗹 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵, we focus on the inside first. Our gut supplement contains only high levels of active ingredients — no fillers, no shortcuts. Every component is there to do a job: supporting digestion, balancing the gut microbiome, strengthening the immune system, and helping skin stay calmer and more resilient.

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘂𝗹𝘁? Better gut health, fewer flare-ups, and a dog that’s more comfortable in their own skin.
Because when the gut is supported properly, the skin follows.

Here’s the thing about puppies: as cute as they are, their little tummies go through a LOT. From learning what food is, to exploring the world with their mouths, and eventually facing the big move away from mum and littermates – it’s no wonder their digestion sometimes struggles to keep up.

That’s where good gut health makes all the difference. A balanced digestive system doesn’t just support nutrient absorption, it also helps puppies cope with the stress of change – like leaving the breeder and settling into their new family.
This pup’s breeder has been using our Gut Health for over a year now, and it shows – happy, thriving litters with the best start possible. 🐶✨

👉 If you want to give your pup’s tummy the same support through all life’s wobbly stages, check out our Gut Health range. Because a strong gut = a strong, happy dog.
