***UPDATE- We've now been told the diversion will go via Tideford***

If anyone is due to be coming to us from this Monday, 9/2, then unfortunately the usual road from the A38 (Pound Hill) is going to be closed for a few days for gas works 🚧. There will be a diversion in place which will send you to the turning on the right after ours (coming from Plymouth) and the turning before ours on the left if coming from Liskeard direction.

If anyone would like clarification on the planned diversion, please give us a ring on 01752 851471 and we'll do our best to guide you! 🚗

****UPDATE**** Luna, Nala and their elderly companion Garfield have now gone to rescue for rehoming at Clay County Cat Care in St Austell if anyone is interested in rehoming them, please contact them on 01726 839727

🐾🐾🐾CAN YOU HELP??🐾🐾🐾

We are currently looking after some lovely cats whose owner has sadly passed away suddenly and they urgently need new homes, either together or separately. Nala is a dainty tabby, approximately 2 years old and Luna is a semi long haired black with yellow eyes, approximately 5 years old. If you, or anyone you know, is interested, please give us a ring on 01752 851471 and we'll be happy to tell you about them and arrange a meet.

Can you be the Christmas presents they're wishing for? 😺🤞🤞🎄

I’ve seen a few posts recently re adder bites and as we live and walk our dogs in such areas here is a timely reminder of what to do if you think your dog has been bitten by an adder.

🐍 Adders 🐍

With the glorious weather recently, we have seen an expected increase in calls regarding adder bites.

The adder (Vipera berus berus) is the only venomous snake native to the UK, and is also found across northern Europe. It is a protected species in the UK. Adders are most commonly, but not exclusively, found on dry, sandy heaths, sand dunes, rocky hillsides, moorlands and woodland edges. The clinical signs of an adder bite can include rapid and progressive swelling around the bite site, pain, lethargy, vomiting, bruising, bleeding and collapse.

What should you do if your pet has been bitten by an adder?
❌Do not panic.
❌Do not interfere with the bite.
❌Do not apply a tourniquet.
❌Do not attempt to touch or catch the snake.
❌Do not kill the snake – it is a protected species.
❌If practical, carry your dog to your car and go to your veterinary surgeon - do not delay seeking advice even if your pet is well as things can change quickly.

Adders are not aggressive and generally only bite when provoked. They hibernate in the winter and as a result most bites occur in the summer. Pets are frequently bitten on the leg, head or neck. If your pet has been bitten by an adder (even if you did not see the snake or are not sure what happened) – contact your vet/local vet immediately. The vet will examine your pet to determine the location of the bite and extent of the injury.

Stay safe this summer!🐍

In case anyone fancies doing something a bit foolish today!🤣

Dog Yoga Training starting today!

We are now going to be able to teach your dog to take long deep breaths, learn to meditate and of course learn the pose pictured (downward dog)

We are setting our standard dog training methods to one side and hoping this new method of helping the dog to be more zen will stop any behaviour issues.

Namaste!

Hi everyone, hope you're enjoying the fabulous weather 🌞

Although the sun at the moment is amazing, you're probably thinking ahead to planning your summer holidays. We have been taking a record number of advance bookings this year and this has meant that we've had to come to the decision NOT to take on any NEW large dog (over Springer Spaniel size)customers for 2025 as we're already at capacity for a number of dates and don't want our loyal, existing customers to be disappointed.

We hope you understand that this decision has not been made lightly and that this applies to NEW CUSTOMERS ONLY, our existing clients are unaffected.

We look forward to seeing you all soon!🐾🐶
