Good morning all 😊
I’m now officially on holiday until 16 July 😊
Please take care of your furry best friends in this hot weather…early/later walks in shaded areas and keeping them on a long line will allow lots of sniffing but minimise the amount of running they can do and therefore keep them comfortable ☺️☺️💛💛☺️☺️
See you all mid July - keep safe and enjoy the ☀️

Sadly several of these dogs are no longer NGR with us, my Cody included… but great to be reminded of this fun & interesting weekend 👌💞👌

Struggling with getting your best friend to return to you??
Is life just TOO exciting out there for them to even think about you, let alone listen ?
Has your dog got into trouble/annoyed other dogs by refusing to leave them alone?

If all of the above sound rather too familiar heres your chance to actively DO something about it NOW!
This 2 hour workshop will give you lots of new skills to perfect your recall, look at ideas on why its not working for you atm and get you practising with fun training methods that really tick ✅ those boxes for your dogs, suitable for youngsters and older dogs too.

To comply with The Law your dog must be ‘under control in a Public place’ - having a reliable recall is part of your responsibilities of being a dog owner, and it also actually gives your dog MORE freedom 😍 and we all want that for our best friends 🐕 🐩

Read those labels !! There are sooo many sneaky tricks to the dog food and treat industry 🥴😕🥴

Let's talk LABELLING tricks - first up, "Flavour"...

When you see phrases like “Chicken flavour” or “Beef flavour” on a dog food label, it might sound like your dog’s getting a hearty helping of real meat - but that’s not necessarily the case.

Here’s what it really means:

❗It just needs to taste like chicken or beef - not contain it.
❗The flavour can come from things like animal fats, meat digest, or artificial additives.
❗There’s no required amount of real meat unless the label says “with chicken” or “made with real beef.”

So, while it might sound meaty, it's always best to check the label to know what’s really in the bowl.

What are your thoughts on this labelling trick? Let us know in the comments...
