My beautiful friend, Boo, just popping in to discuss how regular swimming in a heated pool is helping to ease her joints in her twilight years!

Boo is one of my older friends, referred to me for help with sore elbows and generalised stiffness (because age does not come without it’s trials).

Boo’s visits are always tailored to how she has been each week, and the amount we do increased or decreased accordingly - some sessions we swim after her tennis ball more, others we spend having nice gentle stretches of those legs, and a good old massage of her achy bits. Whatever we do, it’s always on her terms, and whatever is going to be more beneficial for Boo!

Her owners say that she is making progress and they can see a difference since she started her swims as well!

Always good to see that our swim sessions are enjoyed!!

Gorgeous Oscar visits me weekly for help with losing a few additional kilos, and to help keep him fit and healthy!

Oscar started his swims late last year, and initially HATED IT! Bit by bit, we managed to achieve a love/hate relationship - i love him, he hates that i make him swim 😂😂, and we’re very slowly seeing those kilos drop off!

With careful management of his diet, regular swims and walks, I’m confident we can get that weight down to where it needs to be for Oscar to live his best life ever!

Hi everyone,

Just a quick admin post today - i’ve tried really really hard to keep my prices the same for the last 4 years, but, unfortunately, the climate out there has caught up with Puddleducks after all! (Trust me, the collie in is has tried to outrun it!!)

As of June 1st, all prices are going to increase by £5 per session. Block bookings will stay the same for now, as will Sausage Sunday!

I hope you all understand, and i am sorry to have to do it!

See you all soon!

Just letting everyone know about a few things we’re doing in May (and some dates for diaries!!)

First off, Sausage Sunday is going to run from 9-2 on 17th May. The cost for these times is £10 as usual.

From 2-6, however, i’m opening for all small dogs (Small Dog Sunday!!!) to come for 20 minute swims, at a cost of £15. Open to any small breed of dog (chihuahua, yorkie, Jack Russell, small spaniel etc). Price includes the swim, and a shower afterwards.

Secondly, as i know how busy my friends in the grooming world can get, i’m going to offer “summer spruce” - shower, shampoo, dry and claw clip (please note, NO COAT CLIPPING) for £15 per dog - for anyone who is struggling to get to a groomer, or doesn’t need a full groom!

Finally, Puddleducks will be closed from 12pm on 26th June until 5th July (as in, i am opening again on Sunday 5th July, should you miss me that much while i’m away for the week! Please make sure you book your appointments in around that week!

Open for all things swimming and laser as normal!

The gorgeous Boris popping in today to chat about his swims!

Boris is a working wire haired pointer, so fitness is VERY important to him!

Boris began coming to Puddleducks in summer last year, but had to take a break due to an issue with his knee. Since the New Year, he’s been swimming regularly with me, getting better and better every time (i say this because he likes to splash. A lot.)!

Boris’s swims are literally to increase his fitness and stamina - i do keep a check on those knees for him, but i don’t have to do any joint work, and he absolutely doesn’t need weight management, so we swim the session away, increasing the number of laps of the pool every time, just to make sure he’s at the peak of his fitness for as long as possible!

His sessions are always fun, always active and ALWAYS wet(!!) and i love seeing him!

Please meet the lovely Max!

Max is a rescued boy, who moved in with his mum and dad very recently! Max’s mum noticed him limping slightly on one of his hind legs, so took him to their vet (as any good dog mum should!)

After an examination, the vet suggested that Max’s cruciate ligament might be weakened, and there were two ways to deal with that - surgery or conservative methods! Max’s mum opted for the latter initially, to try to reduce the stress Max has to go through as much as possible!

Cue some hydrotherapy sessions with Puddleducks!

Max’s swims are aimed to build the strength through his limbs, adding muscle around the joints, and protecting the ligaments within the knee.

I can honestly say Max is in my “tolerating swimming” team - he doesn’t like it at all, but puts up with the whole thing because it’s good for him 😂😂

I’m confident that we can help Max to avoid surgery for a long time to come, and i look forward to keeping you updated with his progress!

If you know me well, you know that i LOVE this boy’s visits!

Hamish is a gorgeous border collie boy, who comes to visit me monthly, just to give him a different form of exercise!

Hamish’s mum and dad were looking for somewhere to take him swimming during the winter months, and found me almost by accident!

His sessions are solely for exercise purposes, no joint care, or weight management needed for this boy! He’s taken a little while to get used to the idea, but i’m certain he’ll soon learn to enjoy the process!

I made a new XL friend last week! Everyone meet Helix!

Helix lives with my friend Nova (she’s featured on the page quite a few times), but has only decided to see what this swimming lark is all about more recently!

Helix’s mum was worried that he’d be nervous of the water, just like his sister was at first - so i was fully prepared to use my usual gentle methods with him!

No-one needed to worry though! In he jumped, and swam like an absolute PRO! Not a single bit of worry with Helix, he’s a total natural in water!

Helix is set to become a regular visitor to Puddleducks, along with Nova, and i can absolutely tell he’s going to be one of my favourites! (I say that about everyone!!)
