Sit Stay Walkies

A friend has an amazing outdoor kennel available for the price of a bottle of whiskey! It splits into two for easy cleaning, has an adjustable vent on the rear and is weatherproof. It's located in Pinxton but I may be able to help with transporting it if required. DM if interested.

We need to be 100% sure that any treatment being recommended by a Vet is based on clinical need only, not fueled by a need or desire to hit financial targets. I think this report demonstrates what we have known for some time now.

BBC News - Vets say they are under pressure to bring in more money per pet - BBC News

Some tell the BBC they are encouraged to compete over the number of procedures they carry out on pets.

I'm not a fan of dogs playing with sticks, but Nellie can't help but pick up the odd little twig... 🤣🤣

Anyone can become a dog walker and more & more people are seeing it as a way to earn a quick bit of pin money - often with no insurance, experience or qualifications. I have long called for dog walking and training to be regulated in the same way that home boarding is, so that consumers can be sure that the person they are trusting their beloved pet to is best equipped to ensure their safety and welfare.

Therefore, I am pleased to announce that I am the first dog walker in Nottinghamshire to be certified and accredited as a professional dog walker by becoming a member of the Modern Dog Walkers Association (https://www.mdwa.co.uk/).

To all my wonderful furry customers and their two-legged owners I'd like to wish you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Whether a walking or training client, it has been an absolute pleasure and privilege to work with the amazing dogs and their owners during 2024 (where did that year go!) and I look forward to more fun walkies and training into 2025.

Once again I have made a donation of £300 to the PDSA in lieu of giving Christmas Cards or gifts this year, they do some amazing work helping out those less fortunate and ensuring pets receive the care and treatment they deserve.

PDSA is the vet charity for pets in need, working to keep people and pets together. Find out more about us and how you can support our work

As everyone is buying Christmas presents for their pampered pooches, just a quick warning about Rawhide products - these are not good for dogs. They are produced cheaply and can cause choking, digestive blockages, and potential chemical contamination - there are many more natural treats available that are much better for your dog.

I have a limited supply of natural hairy rabbit ears and cooked chicken feet available, the ears are prepacked and £20 for a kilo bag, the chicken feet are loose and cost £10 per kilo (I can also do 500gms for £5). These are available to local customers as I'm not posting them - first come first served!

You smashed it 🙌🏽

So I've learnt some new stuff thanks to the inspirational Ken Ramirez and the pups have had a good break (posing here in Cannock Chase). Back to the early morning starts and doggy walks I've missed for the last week 😁🐾🐕🐶
