Look 👀 what’s coming! I am forever talking about the benefits of pumpkin and sweet potato, but pumpkin is so seasonal it’s difficult to reap the rewards. Pumpkin 🎃 is *really* good for the digestive tract and helps with 💩 and bum scooting. Will definitely be stocking this! Thank you Nova Dog Chews!

The handsome Teddy started puppy classes this evening, doesn’t he suit his name? 💙🐾💙🐾
He is a miniature Australian labradoodle. Not sure he got the memo about the mini bit tho 🙈😂
He did brilliantly and should sleep well! For at least 30 seconds 🤣🐾
