👃🐾 BOOP! 🐾👃

We nose whose noses these belong to… but do you?
We’ve put together a collection of some very familiar Houlton Hounds snoots. Can you guess which dog each nose belongs to?
Drop your guesses in the comments and let’s see who knows our pack best! 🐶❤️
⚠️ Warning: Excessive booping may occur.

Happy Sunday from the most unlikely of best friends… 🐾❤️🐱
Cari and Basil proving that friendship comes in all shapes, sizes and species!
While the world tells us cats and dogs should be rivals, these two clearly didn’t get the memo. Whether they’re sharing naps, keeping each other company or playing together, they’re a reminder that the best friendships often come when you least expect them.
We think everyone could do with a friend like Basil… and a friend like Cari too! 🥰

Have a wonderful Sunday from all of us at Houlton Hounds 💚

Due to the high temperatures continuing tomorrow, our only walks will be at 7.30am ☀️🐾
Throughout the rest of the day we’ll be doing pop-ins to make sure your dogs are safe and comfortable while you’re at work — including toilet breaks, fresh water, feeding and keeping them cool ❤️

Seeing dogs being walked in 30°C heat today has honestly made us feel so sad ☀️🐾
Hot pavements, overheating and heatstroke are real dangers. If it’s too hot for your hand, it’s too hot for paws.
Please walk early morning or late evening only ❤️

It’s looking like it’s going to be a scorching bank holiday weekend, so it’s a good idea to familiarise yourself with what temperatures are safe for your dog☀️🐶

Every year our vets treat hundreds of heat stroke cases and, heartbreakingly, some end in tragedy. Many are unfortunately a result of owners not knowing the dangers of exercising their dogs in temperatures to hot for them to handle.

Heat-related illnesses are almost always preventable. DONT TAKE THE RISK and make sure your pet isn’t overheating in the sun.

Temperatures over 24 degrees will be uncomfortable for most of our dogs, so make sure you are walking them at the coolest times of the day or simply keep them at home and give them some mental stimulation and enrichment things to do instead.

If you think your dog may be suffering from heat stroke, contact your vet immediately! If out-of-hours, find your nearest emergency vet.

☀️🐾 HOT WEATHER WARNING 🐾☀️

With temperatures rising this week, the safety and wellbeing of the dogs in our care will always come first.

At Houlton Hounds we will be reducing walks to shorter toilet breaks and shaded pop-ins during the hottest parts of the day. Pavements can become dangerously hot very quickly, and even fit, healthy dogs can suffer from heatstroke in minutes.

Please help keep your dogs safe by:
🐶 Keeping walks early morning or late evening
💧 Leaving plenty of fresh water available
🏡 Keeping curtains/blinds closed to help keep homes cool
🚫 Avoiding hot pavements — if it’s too hot for your hand, it’s too hot for paws

Thank you for understanding while we put your dogs’ safety first ❤️
