🌟Team Buddys Profile Series🌟

Time to shine the spotlight on another one of our amazing team members – and this time, we have the brilliant Holly – Our not-so-quiet-anymore apprentice Holly joined us on a Level 2 animal behaviour and canine management apprenticeship which she has smashed out the park and now flying through her Level 3. When she first started at Buddys, she wouldn’t say boo to a goose… now the real challenge is getting a word in edgeways (and honestly, we love it!)

Meet Holly:
🏍️Zooming to work on her little 125, Holly’s motorbike suits her energy perfectly… small, full of beans and stacks of personality!
🦅Holly is an all-round animal lover, but birds are her Jam – She will often stop you mid-convo to identify a bird call in the distance… who knew we had so many different birds around here!
🐶Whether it’s a nervous newbie, or a dog with attitude, Hollys got the patience and kindness to win them over (this goes for the dogs and the humans 😜).

Holly has truly grown into a proper Buddys superstar 💫– It has been amazing watching her confidence soar and we couldn’t be prouder of everything she has achieved so far. The dogs adore her, the team loves her and lets be real - the birds definitely love her (she is the only one that makes sure the bird feeder are topped up 🐥).

We are so lucky to have you Holly – Keep being your brilliant and amazing self… you might be a twin, but you truly are a one of a kind.

🌟Team Buddys Profile Series🌟

Our second team profile piece looks to celebrate a true Buddys legend, our longest-serving team member - The one and only SARAH! 🐾Dachshund mad with her furry partner in crime Coco featured in these gorgeous photos.

Meet Sarah;
☕ Fuelled by coffee night or day, rain or shine - Time doesn’t affect how much of a buzz is delivered in each cup, she runs on pure caffeine and good vibes.
🚙 If she isn’t at Buddys or at Home, she is off grid on an adventure in her little blue van, Dobby - Chasing sunsets, campfires and probably more coffee.
🎁The most thoughtful human ever – With a magical ability to pick the most perfect, personalised gifts for literally any occasion and any team member. Birthday? Easter? Slightly bad Tuesday?... Sarahs got it covered.
🎵 And yes… you’ll probably hear Sarah before you see her – Whether it is laughter, talking to the dogs like they are best friends who haven’t seen each other in month or belting out Queen classics… We need more people like Sarah in the world – the ones whose energy fills a room before they even walk in!

From early opens to late night staff BBQs and everything in between, Sarah has been part of Buddys foundations from day one and one of the biggest reasons Buddys feel like home to anyone that walks through our doors. We would be lost without her – and so would the dogs.

*** DOG OF THE MONTH ***
This month’s star is the hilarious Harley! 🐾
Harley has kept us all laughing with his musical snoring, spot-on pygmy hippo impressions, and of course his undeniable love for legs! 🦵🤣

Well done Harley – you’ve truly stolen the show this month! 🌟

🐾🎉 Happy International Dog Day! 🎉🐾

Yesterday was a special day for celebrating the pups who make our lives brighter, sillier, and so much more full of love. At Buddy’s, dogs are at the heart of everything we do — so of course, couldn’t resist showing off the Buddy’s team own four-legged best friends! 🐶❤️

Swipe through to meet some of the staffs dogs who inspire us every day (and remind us why extra cuddles, belly rubs, and playtime matter so much 🥰). Rufus, Gwen, Monty, Coco, Misty, Nabula, Joey, Moose, Sam and Lotti 💕🥰
Ps Happy Birthday Rufus - 1 year old today 🤩 🎉

To all our wonderful customers — thank you for trusting us with your beloved companions. Give your dog an extra treat, a longer walk, or a big squeeze today. They deserve it! 🦴

Well, we had to kick this off with the guy who literally keeps the treats topped up and the tails wagging… MATT!

If you’ve been through our doors, chances are you’ve been greeted by his smile… Matts passion for every single pup who trots in, and his unwavering love for all things Buddy’s, is the glue that keeps us all together.

✨ Meet Matt:
• 🏉 Lifelong Northampton Saints fan (don’t try and book him during a big game!)
• 🥃 Bourbon lover through and through…. don’t even whisper “Scotch” in his direction
• 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Proud uncle to 7 nieces and 1 nephew — affectionately known as ‘Uncle Thor’… the man’s got “cool uncle” status on lockdown!
•🚶‍♂️ Matts average step count is around 30,000 per day - Basically the human version of a Border Collie!

We think you’ll all agree — Buddy’s just wouldn’t be Buddy’s without Matt! 💚💛🖤

Being only a few miles from the National Memorial Arboretum, we had a front-row seat as the magnificent Lancaster and Spitfires roared right over us. 🇬🇧✈️
We even saw the incredible Red Arrows painting the sky—although with a last-minute programme change, we missed snapping that perfect “right overhead” shot! 📸
What an unforgettable way to mark this special day of remembrance and celebration. ❤️
