Hello everyone💗
I hope you and all your amazing animal are well, I miss you all!🥰
I understand it has been a while since I’ve posted and many of you know this is because unfortunately I closed around the start of June due to many reasons.
I have had a couple of jobs since then but I have some exciting news. This weekend I will start working for Impackt Behaviour in Keelby with the wonderful Pamela Dempsey!💗 I am very excited to start working here. I am looking forward to gain more experience and meeting some new furry friends and I hope to see some of your faces again🥰
For now I will only be working weekends and still have a part time job in the week.
I am still doing a few dog walks, house sitting, pet visits and nail clipping. Please get in touch if you need any help with anything and I can check my availability🐶🐾
Also please go like Impact Behaviours page and check out all the amazing services🐾
There are still some spaces available for the socialising classes on the weekends, please get in touch with Impackt behaviour if you are interested in any of these🐶🐾

Finally this cutie in the photo is Casper, he is our new spoilt baby who loves hugs and kisses and playing with other doggies🐶 Unfortunately Henry made his way over the rainbow bridge end of august, he is greatly missed but had the best ten and half years and I will never forgot his smile. He will be looking over all his doggy friends🌈💗💗

It’s been one of those weeks for Henry🐾

First he has a bath and then unfortunately he had to have one of his toe nails removed at the vets💔 Somehow he broke his nail and it wasn’t healing as well as we hoped because he would try chew or lick off anything we would put on it to help heal🐶🐾

He is still as happy as always, getting loads of treats for being a good boy and how cute is the bandage that was originally put on his foot🥰🐾

I will upload a video of him on the next post if you’d like to see how he’s moving around with his bandage. He walks as he normally does, he just looks so cute😍

I hope you’ve all had an excellent week so far💕

Hello everyone!! Hope you’ve all had a wonderful start to the week!☀️

Today I just wanted to talk a little bit about ticks.
Ticks are most commonly seen around spring and summer in woodland, grassland and heath areas. They will climb or drop onto the host when they pass by where they are sitting.
Ticks are mostly common to be found on dogs, however they can be found on cats too so make sure you are checking them over🐶🐈
Ticks are parasites that will enjoy a tasty meal of blood from your animal once they have attached themselves. They will drop off once they are full but it is best to check for them regularly and if found remove them safely to prevent the spread of disease or infection. The most common being Lyme disease. 🦠
Ticks are small, eight legged and round. They vary in size from 1mm to 1cm.
To check over your dog the best thing to do is run your hand over your dog and if you feel a bump or lump you should investigate.
If you do find a tick it is important to remove it as soon and as safety as possible. If you are unsure it is always best to ring your vets.
The best method to remove a tick is by using a tick removing tool which can be found in pet stores or at your vets. With the tool gently slide it around the body and carefully twist the tool until the tick becomes loose. Then dispose of the tick safely, it is advised to wear gloves.
The most important thing is to make sure the removal is don’t safely and correctly. You must make sure that you do not squeeze the body or leave the head in the skin.
Avoid using tweezers to pull them out. And avoid trying to burn them or suffocate them. These methods may unfortunately not work and some can increase the spread of disease.
Ask your vet for the best advice to prevent ticks. The best protection for you dogs is spot on treatment or tablets. Even if you are up to date on treatments it is still advices you check over your animals just incase.☺️🐾

This is a link for a blue cross YouTube video on how to remove ticks.

Henry having a Sunday sulk🐶

Today we gave him, the dreaded word that most dogs dislike, a BATH🧼🛁

Once we had rinsed away all the shampoo Henry had a good roll on the grass and walked down the side of the house to sulk because he smells nicer than he did before🐾😂💗

Happy Friday everyone💕
I hope you’ve all had a wonderful week! The weather has been amazing☀️

☀️When the weather is this warm, your animals well-being is what I care about the most! If the weather is too hot for the dogs, I will usually talk to you prior, the walk may be cut short and we will have more relaxed time in the garden so that your dog still gets time outdoors. Or I will split the walk into two visits/walks. On the walks we will find as much shade as possible to keep out of the heat. I always carry water on me during the walks to keep your dogs hydrated🐶

☀️A good tip that I always do myself is to check how hot the ground is by using the back of your hand. If you feel it too hot or can’t hold it there for more than 5 seconds, wait until it has cooled down to take your dog out because this is what they will feel on the pads on their feet. It is usually better to take them morning and evening.

☀️Humidity is always good to check too. When the humidity is too high dogs find it harder to keep themselves cool. When dog’s pant they are removing moisture from their lungs which will push heat out of their bodies. But if the humidity is too high they are unable to cool themselves down and their temperature will rise.

☀️Signs of heat stroke in dogs include
🐾Heavy panting
🐾Excessive dribbling
🐾In distress, agitated, restless
🐾Dehydrated
🐾Increased body temperature
🐾Rapid heart rate
🐾Lethargic, drowsy and uncoordinated
🐾 Vomiting or collapsed

☀️If you believe the dog does have heat stroke the best way to treat it is to take the dog to a cooler or shaded area. Pour small amounts of cool water over them (avoid usually cold water to prevent the going into shock). If possible use a damp towel and place them near a fan. Allow them to drink small amounts of cool water. Do this until their breathing settles but never so much so that they begin to shiver. Once the dog is cool they should be taken to the vets as a matter of urgency.

Have fun in the sun and keep safe☀️💕
