Has your dog been affected by the clocks going back?

You might have noticed your dog acting a little differently over the past couple of days, and the change in time could be one of the reasons!

Dogs are creatures of habit, and many thrive on having a regular routine. When the clocks go back, their internal body clocks don’t automatically adjust to the new time!

🐾 Feeding times: Your dog might be expecting their breakfast or dinner an hour earlier than usual because, in their mind, it’s still mealtime!

🌤️ Daylight changes: With the evenings getting darker earlier, your dog might notice a change in their usual surroundings and the amount of daylight they’re used to.

🚶‍♀️ Walkies: If your walks usually happen at the same time every day, your dog might be wondering why you’re heading out earlier or later than they’re expecting!

❤️ Their mood and behaviour: If your dog loves routine, these little changes might leave them feeling a bit unsettled, confused or even a little quieter than usual over the past few days.

The good news? Most dogs adapt pretty quickly! 🐶A little consistency, patience and reassurance will help them settle back into their routine. You can even gradually adjust their feeding and walking times to help them get used to the change.🐾

Everyone, meet Rolo… 🐾🤎

Rolo is a miniature longhair dachshund, I spend my evenings with Rolo who is still so young and has a whole world to explore!

Rolo is learning all about sitting, waiting and settling into bed, and he’s doing so well with his commands. 🐾

Our evenings are filled with cuddles, playtime and lots of learning as we continue to build his confidence and help him discover the world around him. 🤎✨

🌧️ Rain, mud, leaves and LOTS of sniffing! 🌧️

Did you know that rainy days can turn a simple walk into a whole new sensory adventure?

Rain releases and spreads all sorts of interesting scents, while wet autumn leaves, wet grass and muddy paths create a whole new world of smells for those curious noses to explore

With leaves falling everywhere, there are endless new scents to investigate. Every step brings something new to sniff, discover and investigate!

Some dogs absolutely LOVE a good splash, a muddy puddle or a full speed sprint through the rain! The extra excitement and freedom to run can bring out those happy zoomies!

But do all dogs love the rain? Not at all! 🐾 Some are happiest splashing through puddles, while others would rather be curled up somewhere warm and cosy. Every dog is different, and that’s perfectly okay!

Today’s crew proved that a little British weather won’t stop us from having adventures! 🌧️🐶🍂

This morning, we had an adventure morning at Quarry Bank, National Trust,

Adventure days are about so much more than just a walk. They’re a fantastic opportunity to socialise, explore new places, experience different environments, and discover a whole world of new scents, sounds and sights.

Every new adventure helps build confidence, encourages curiosity, and provides valuable mental stimulation. Whether it’s meeting new friends, sniffing all the interesting smells along the way, or simply taking in the sights and sounds of nature, there’s always something new to discover! 🐶

Our Friday mornings..🐾

Many people think socialisation ends after puppyhood but every dog, at every age, benefits from positive social experiences.

Puppies build confidence by exploring new people, places, sounds, and other dogs.

Adult dogs maintain their social skills, confidence, and ability to adapt to new situations through regular positive experiences.

Senior dogs enjoy gentle social interactions that provide mental stimulation, reduce loneliness, and help keep them engaged with the world around them.

Socialisation isn’t about meeting as many dogs as possible, it’s about creating positive, enjoyable experiences that help your dog feel safe and confident.
