‼️ Morning rant, scroll pass if you're easily offended‼️

As a trainer something that really grinds my gears is that when people get in touch with me and inform me that their dog has a bite history and ask me to work with them I am always like yep not a problem let's get it sorted, I then present solutions, the owner then goes away and does nothing. Nothing to help them or their dog but will ring and say they are still having issues. This is crazy to me. What I also find crazy is that after said dog has already bitten the owners will still proceed to walk said dog unmuzzled and allow off leash time which is a public safety risk.

95% of these dogs I work with, who have bite history are spaniels, cockerpoos, French bulldogs, terriers and boarder colliers. I really don't want to demonize entire breeds of dog because you get good and bad genetics as well as environmental influences in all breeds but what's sickening is if your dog was a large breed it would either be seized or euthanized and that's my point here whether your dog is big, small, giant or medium biting is not ok and then not preventing further bites as an owner is out of order!

All the dogs below DO NOT HAVE A BITE HISTORY and are all absolutely gorgeous in temperament but must be muzzled due to a bu****it law criminalizing them for their looks not actions or because they eat things they're not supposed to, while some small breed dogs are running around with bite histories with complete freedom and owners do nothing to be responsible and maintain public safety. It's wild, the dog world has gone mad. Do better, your dog needs consistency and you will only ever get out of training what you put in at the end of the day.

🌿 "Why has my dog gone off its food" 🌿

It's getting to that time of year where I hear this quite a lot and it is completely normal for a dog's appetite to decrease due to the warmer weather. ☀️😎

It can take dogs roughly 60 days to acclimatise to the change in temperature and this can have a massive effect on their metabolism because naturally a dog will move less so will require less food to function. A dog's metabolism revolves around their energy output so the less they exercise the less food they will need or want.

Who wants a big meal when its warm anyway, even humans tend to lean towards salads or lighter meals because we do less and dogs are no different.

In saying this it is still a good idea to sneak nutrients into your dog via treats or a lighter meal so that they will still stay hydrated and healthy. ☺️

If you scroll through our Facebook you will see previous posts which inform you of all the benefits these tasty treats contain 😋👇👇👇

⚠️ Flea & Tick Season ⚠️

We are making our way through the horrible season where all the creepy crawlies are the most active 😷🦟

Sometimes we can be too quick to jump to allergies as the reason for our dog's itching. Don't forget that parasites like mites, fleas and lice can be a reason for itching and scratching too! Your dog getting fleas does not mean you are dirty or a poor dog owner it can literally happen to anyone and last year they were rife! A new client recently went through this - giving an injection for what was thought to be allergies but realizing after, it was mites which can be difficult to see.

This is a reminder for all of you who use natural provisions against fleas and ticks, which is just as effective as chemical flea treatments but has no impact on their immune systems, to start now to ensure it's in your dogs system.

We've got a range of natural products, some containing garlic which is a natural anti-parasitic properties to help prevent flea and tick infestations. Has detoxifying properties as well as antiseptic, antimicrobial and antifungal properties! It also helps circulation and minimises the risk of tumours as well as supporting the immune system! Garlic is also great for joint health as it helps the body to reduce inflammation. 🚨IMPORTANT INFORMATION garlic must be given in the correct amount in relation to your dogs weight and you should avoid using it if you have a puppy or your bitch is pregnant. Also if your dog has an autoimmune disorder, has an anemic condition or is about to have surgery!🚨

We also have a spot on is a safe & natural product that is applied weekly to the back of the dog's neck and is made from ingredients which are natural such as quassia bark, neem leaf & lemongrass essential oil. It is so safe that you can use it with pregnant & lactating bi***es. If you're unsure call in and have a chat but the sooner you start the safer from fleas and ticks your home will be!

Update on Hugo's skin journey ✨

His owners put their trust into me and a natural process of healing a little under 6 months ago now after trying multiple other avenues including various medications and food sources.

Hugo was sad and uncomfortable and just look at the difference following on from his diet plan 😍

Let's look at a few of the benefits of feeding cold pressed food 👇👇👇

Retains nutrients -

🥣 A complete meal directly from bag to bowl, your dog receives all the essential nutrients from our quality ingredients due to the cold pressing process. The manufacturing process is unique because it allows the natural nutrients to be preserved as it is cooked at a lower temperature.

Suitable with Raw Dog Food -

🥩 If you’re a raw feeder, cold pressed dog food is a great dry alternative to raw because they break down at the same rate – you can even feed the two together in the same bowl! It's also a great option when travelling and feeding raw is more difficult.

Helps to Aid Digestion -

🐶 As it is minimally processed, it's much easier to break down in your dog's stomach. The gentle pressing method helps to aid digestion, which can reduce bloating and result in healthier poos.

Cold pressed food is a much more beneficial alternative to feeding regular kibble if raw feeding is not for you. Call in to see me if you'd like any further information 🐾

Beef bone marrow is packed with nutrients such as phosphorus and calcium, it also contains collagen, conjugated linoleic acid, glycine and glucosamine all of which have been linked to decreased inflammation, better skin health, and improved joint function.

It's also highly enriching, great for anxious or high energy dogs and also for you so you can enjoy some quiet time in the sun too 🐾
