We all need to be fluent in “Silent Communication” when it comes to the animals we share the planet with. Especially the ones we share our lives with. Martha Knowles has created a wonderful resource to help us all learn this remarkable language.

I have some wonderful veteran dogs for whom the grooming process, physically, emotionally and mentally, is a big challenge. Taking time to build a strong trust based relationship with them prior to introducing any tools or process and maintaining absolute flexibility regarding their needs has been key to success. Maisie is 15 now and has some very specific needs. We take things slowly, have lots of breaks and I always work at her pace. It’s so lovely that’s she’s so pleased to see me and stays nice and relaxed before, during and after her visits.

Our smoith and slippery floors are so difficult for a dogs to safely and comfortably negotiate , especially at speed and as they age. Thanks so much for this Stephie Guy, The Shouty-Barky Dog Lady

🌟 Are You Asking Your Dog to Walk Across a Tiled Floor Wearing Stilettos? 🌟

Did you know that your dog's paws are designed for outdoor adventures, not for navigating slippery indoor surfaces?

🐾 Nails: Built for gripping soft ground, but useless on hard floors.
🐾 Paw pads: Perfect outdoors, but less effective on smooth tiles.

Imagine walking across tiles in stilettos—tricky, right? That’s what it’s like for your dog!

Help them out:
✅ Add rugs or runners to give them grip.
✅ Consider paw-safe mats in their favourite spots.

A small change can make a BIG difference for your dog’s comfort and confidence. 💕

It’s an honour and a concern looking after older dogs.

Let’s admit it guys, it’s bloody exhausting too.

Chips is confused and confusing.

He’s not normal but let’s face it (and if you have been here a while you will know this) he’s never been normal.

He’s just not normal in another way now.

The whining is louder and more persistent; but usually only because he needs something. It’s just that when he gets delivered or delivered to whatever he thinks he needs, there’s a risk that he might have forgotten he needed it at all.

Then we have to do the same thing all over again five minutes later.

You know what though, looking after him is a sweet part of life I would never miss.

The sometimes-vacant look.

The smile he so freely gives.

The determination to jump awkwardly on the bed despite doing it right next to the perfectly good bed steps.

Old dogs are magic.

Their frailty betrays their vulnerability.

Their wobble betrays their age.

Their eyes betray a lifetime of experiences and wisdom.

A lifetime of love.

What a treat they are.
