Happy New Year everyone! 🎊

Let's make sure our furry friends stay safe and sound during the fireworks tonight. 🎆

Fireworks can be incredibly stressful for dogs. Here's how to keep your pup calm and happy:

Secure your home: Double-check that all gates, fences, and doors are securely closed.

Create a safe haven: Provide a quiet and secure space for your dog, like a crate or a designated room. Include their favorite bed, toys, and treats.

Drown out the noise: Play calming music or white noise to help muffle the sounds of fireworks.

Minimize visual stimulation: Close windows and blinds to reduce the flashes and booms.

Ensure proper identification: Make sure your dog is wearing a collar with up-to-date ID tags in case they manage to escape.

Let's make this New Year's Eve a happy and stress-free one for all our furry companions! ❤️

🌥️ Cloudy skies and warm vibes couldn’t keep the WoofTastic crew from having a tail-waggin’ great time today!

First up, Alfie, Scout T and Boston were all paws in for some fun at Bede Spillane Gardens, joined by a lovely blonde Kelpie cross Dingo who kept them on their toes! These pups made the most of every inch of green and didn’t let the warm weather slow them down one bit. 🐾

Next, Axel, Georgie, Scout P and Duke took over Blackmore Oval for some epic games of chasies and zoomies! The cherry on top? A catch-up with our friends from then a lovely walk through Cafe Bones where everyone got to cool down and re-energize. 🐶💨

The afternoon adventure led us to the foreshore trail with Annabelle, Baxter, Charlie, Harper and Ziggy. For Baxter and Annabelle, it was their first time here, and wow 🤩 those noses were in overdrive! Every blade of grass was a mystery to solve, and they tackled it all with serious sniffin’ dedication. 🐕👃

To wrap up a pawsome day, Charlie, Milly, Oscar, Rocky and Boston had a lovely stroll, taking in the views and capping off the day with all the right vibes. 🥰

From start to finish, every single pup made the most of the day, with tails high and spirits higher. Can’t wait for tomorrow’s adventures with this amazing pack! 🌟

🐾 Welcome to the WoofTastic Crew, Baxter & Annabelle! 🐾

Today, we had the absolute pleasure of welcoming this adorable brother-sister duo from Chiswick! Meet Baxter, the playful Bordoodle and his sister Annabelle, a bundle of Spoodle energy and sweetness. These two came ready to roll, already knowing all the tricks of the trade!

Our seasoned pros, Harper and Willow, jumped right in and showed them the ropes (not that they needed much help!) ❤️ they were naturals! It was nonstop play, paws on the go and tails wagging all the way, just the way we love it! 🐕💨

Baxter and Annabelle, you fit right in with our pack, and we can’t wait for you to meet the rest of the gang! 🐶✨

Stay tuned for more adventures with our adorable crew! 🐾💛

🐾 Oh, what a time the WoofTastic crew has been having out there in the sunshine! ☀️ With the warm weather in full swing, we’re back to shade-hopping and beachy escapades 👉🏼 perfect for splashing, romping, and cooling off in the waves! 🏖️

Just a quick reminder for our lovely humans: please keep extra water bowls out for the floofs, and if your pup isn’t up for a group adventure in the heat, feel free to cancel for their comfort! 🐶 On these hot days, a dip in the water is the highlight of our outings. Keeping grooming on a summer-friendly schedule 🙌🏼 shorter fur, means a quicker clean-up post beach fun! 🌊💦

Let’s keep those paws happy, healthy, and ready for all the summer adventures ahead! 🥰

🏴‍☠️ Ahoy, ye scurvy sea pups ‘n landlubbers alike! 🏴‍☠️

'Tis been a full turn o' the tides since our cheeky lass Willow joined the WoofTastic crew, and what a fine scallywag she's become! A true pirate pup, enjoyin' every bit o' the grand voyage 'round the sun! ☠️

We've braved wild storms, sailed through dangerous waters, an' found more buried bones than a treasure chest could hold. Some o' our old salty sea dogs may have retired to their kennels or found greener pastures, but fear not, mateys! The WoofTastic crew remains strong, mischievous, an' ready to plunder the high seas! 🐾

Our furry first mates have been “workin' hard” out there 🏴‍☠️ chasin' seagulls, diggin' for treasure, an' keepin' us on our toes while havin' the time o’ their lives!

Arrr!

Fair winds, me hearties! 🌊🐶

🐾 Dogs: Social Creatures, Made to Play 🐾

Dogs are natural social beings. They thrive on interaction and companionship, especially with other dogs. Playing with furry friends not only provides mental and physical stimulation but also helps them develop important social skills like communication, cooperation, and conflict resolution.

At WoofTastic Care, we understand the importance of social interaction for dogs. That’s why we create a safe and welcoming environment where dogs can interact on their own terms. Some dogs love to walk together, while others prefer playtime. And for those who simply enjoy the company of other dogs from afar, we provide ample space for them to observe without feeling overwhelmed. Hence the importance of flexibility from our clients as it allows us to place each pup in a group that is most suitable to them.

In this photo, we see three beautiful furry friends enjoying a lively game of chase at the beach. Their tails wagging and their eyes sparkling with joy, it’s clear that they’re having a blast. Moments like these are what make our hearts melt and remind us why we do what we do at WoofTastic Care.

Why do people hire dog walkers?

Hello, everyone! Let's have a chat about an important skill for our dogs during our pack walks – recall! This skill isn't just about obedience; it's about trust and safety, ensuring our dogs enjoy their outdoor adventures safely by our side. Imagine our pack walks where every dog comes back to us when called, eager for treats and affection. It's about celebrating the joy of exploration while knowing our furry friends are secure. Let's make recall training fun and rewarding with treats and positive reinforcement. When our pups master recall, we all have more enjoyable pack walks. Share your recall success stories below and celebrate our fantastic pack! #RecallSuccess #PackWalkFun 🐶🌳

🐾 Pet Care Tip: Daily Bowl Cleaning for Your Furry Friend 🐶🍽️💧 Hey there, fellow pet parents! 🐕 Did you know that cleaning your dog's water bowl and food dish every day is an essential part of their care routine? 🧽 Here's why it matters: 🚰 **Fresh Water:** Daily cleaning ensures your pup always has access to clean and fresh water, keeping them hydrated and healthy. 💦 🍽️ **Clean Dining:** It prevents the buildup of harmful bacteria, mold, and leftover food that can accumulate in their food dish. 🦠 ✨ **Overall Well-being:** A clean bowl promotes your pet's overall well-being by reducing the risk of digestive issues and other health concerns. 🐶❤️ So, make it a habit to give those bowls a good wash and rinse every day. Your furry friend will thank you with wagging tails and wet-nosed kisses! 🐾😊 Share this tip with your fellow pet lovers to ensure happy, healthy pets all around! 🐕❤️ #PetCareTips #HealthyPets #CleanBowlsHappyTails

Teaching a dog to shake paws is a fun and simple trick. Here's a basic step-by-step guide: 1. **Start with Basic Commands:** Make sure your dog is familiar with basic commands like "sit" and "stay" before teaching them a new trick. 2. **Have Treats Ready:** Prepare some small, tasty treats that your dog loves. These will be used as rewards during the training process. 3. **Get Their Attention:** Hold a treat in your closed hand and let your dog see and smell it. This will grab their attention. 4. **Use a Command:** Say a command like "shake" or "paw." You can use any word you prefer, just be consistent. 5. **Guide Their Paw:** Gently tap or lift one of your dog's front paws with your hand. If they offer their paw willingly, that's great! If not, use gentle pressure to lift it. 6. **Reward:** As soon as your dog's paw is in your hand, reward them with praise and give them a treat. Positive reinforcement encourages them to repeat the behavior. 7. **Repeat and Practice:** Practice the command regularly, but keep training sessions short and positive. Consistency is key, so repeat the steps each time. 8. **Gradually Fade Guidance:** Over time, try to gently guide their paw less and less, until they start offering their paw on their own. 9. **Add Duration:** Once your dog consistently offers their paw, you can add a bit of duration by holding their paw for a couple of seconds before giving the treat. 10. **Practice in Different Settings:** Practice the trick in different environments to help your dog generalize the behavior. Remember that every dog is unique and may learn at their own pace. Patience, positive reinforcement, and consistency will help you teach your dog to shake paws successfully. Miss Harper is a pro at this 🥰

🐶 Many dogs have a strong desire to please their human companions. This is often tied to their social nature and their natural inclination to form strong bonds with humans. They seek approval and positive reinforcement from us, which makes training and bonding with dogs quite effective and rewarding. 🐾 Here’s Rocky showing us just how much he loves to practice his skills 🥰
