December is filling up FAST! I'm almost completely booked out for the month, so if you're wanting your furry friends looking and feeling their best for Christmas or new years, now is the time to get in touch! 🎄🐕

I only have a handful of appointments left, so please don't leave it until the last minute. Every year some of you always contact the week of 😂 I hate saying no so please get in touch early!

Whether it's a tidy-up, a full groom or a little pampering before the silly season, I'd love to get your pets sorted. ❤️

Once they're gone, they're gone! 🐾

🐾 Is your pet's microchip registered? 🐶🐱

A microchip is only effective if your contact details are up to date. If your pet ever goes missing, a registered microchip can make all the difference in helping them find their way home.

Take a few minutes today to check:
✅ Your pet is microchipped
✅ The chip is registered
✅ Your contact details are current

It's a simple step that could reunite you with your best friend when it matters most. ❤️

If you're unsure whether your pet's microchip is registered, get in touch with us—we're happy to help point you in the right direction.

A little favour to ask from my wonderful clients and followers! 😊

Does anyone have any empty feed sacks, dog food bags, horse feed bags, or similar woven plastic sacks that they no longer need?

My kindling supplier has completely run out, and is in desperate need of some more. Rather than see them go to waste, I'd love to give them a second life!

If you have any spare, he would be incredibly grateful. I can arrange to collect them if you're local.
Thank you so much! ❤️🐾

🐾 Important Update – Payment Policy 🐾

To all of my wonderful clients,

I have made the decision that, moving forward, payment will be required on the day of your appointment or beforehand, unless a payment arrangement has been discussed and agreed to with me prior to your appointment.

This isn't a decision I've made lightly. I started this business because I am passionate about helping our community provide the best preventative health care for their animals. Keeping my services affordable and accessible has always been a priority.

Unfortunately, I am spending more and more time chasing overdue payments or following up on payment plans that haven't been honoured. As a small business, this simply isn't sustainable.

I truly appreciate every client who pays on time and supports my business—it allows me to keep doing what I love.

Thank you for your understanding and continued support. I look forward to continuing to care for your furry family members. 🐶🐱❤️

UPDATE: Microchipping Event Postponed

Unfortunately, we've had to make the call to postpone today's free dog microchipping event due to the weather. It's pretty windy out there, and rain is on the way.

The good news? Tomorrow is looking much sunnier! ☀️
The event will now be held at Elles Road Dog Park on Friday, from 10.00am–11.30am.

Thanks for your understanding, and we hope to see you and your four-legged friends there tomorrow!

----
Get your dog microchipped for FREE tomorrow! 🥳

Our team will be at Elles Road Dog Park from 10.00am–11.30am, offering free microchipping. No strings or frisbees attached.

A microchip is the ulti-mutt backup plan if your furry friend ever goes walkies without you. If they're found and taken to a vet or picked up by Animal Services, a quick scan can help get them home faster.

It's also invaluable in an emergency. If your dog is injured, involved in an accident, or needs urgent veterinary care, a microchip allows vets to quickly identify them and contact you straight away. When every minute counts, being able to reach the owner can make a huge difference.

Guyyyyyyyss😍🐾

I want to say a big thankyou to Shiree Brown for the new dog beds! Safe to say these handmade wool sack dog beds are officially dog approved in our whare.

If anyone is looking for a cosy, rustic-style bed for their dogs, I highly recommend giving Shiree a message ❤️ These beds are handmade from genuine wool sacks and stuffed with sheep wool, and they can be made in any size at no extra cost 😇 Shiree has also designed removable cow hide-look covers which are such a cool touch.

(And yes… getting Akamaru off the bed for photos was impossible 😂 I wanted to show her name printed on it!)

Wool is a product that is pretty unbeatable when it comes to comfortability and warmth also helps ease pain from arthritis and other joint/muscle related pains and injuries.

They are $40 each, covering is extra depending on size, free stencilling of your dogs name on front plus free delivery 🙂🐕
You can contact Shiree here by clicking her highlighted named on the post or via 0273330275.

It’s that time of year again! 🎆

Guy Fawkes is on the 5th of November every year — but as many of us know, it’s never just one night!
Every year, I end up helping find lost animals because of fireworks, and honestly, it breaks my heart. So, let’s work together to keep our furry (and feathered!) friends safe. 💕

Fireworks cause significant fear and distress to animals — that’s a fact.
Here are a few simple ways to help keep them calm and secure:

🐾 Check microchips and details:
Make sure your pets are microchipped and that their info is up to date in the Companion Animal Register. This includes dogs, cats, horses and even rabbits!

🐾 Prepare early:
Exercise your pets before dark, bring them indoors if possible, close the curtains, and pop on some white noise or calming music.

🐾 Talk to your vet:
If your pet gets extremely anxious, your vet can help with medication or other strategies to reduce stress.

🐾 If you’re setting off fireworks:
Please let your neighbours know so they can prepare too — or even better, head to a public display or the beach where it’s safer for everyone.

I love watching the sky light up as much as the next person, but let’s be considerate and kind this season. If you need guidance on keeping your animals safe, just ask — I’m always happy to help! 🐶🐱🐰

Ngā mihi,
Jess xox
