HUTT & HOUND x LUCY LUCY limited edition, long sleeve shirt available now for preorder. Screen printed locally by on AS Colour organic cotton.

We are beyond excited to announce our collaboration with local artist who created this beautiful artwork for our International Dog Day shirt.

We created this shirt in honour of International Dog Day (26th of August) serves as a platform to raise awareness about the welfare, well-being, and rights of dogs around the world. This special day highlights the invaluable role that dogs play in our lives as loyal friends, therapy animals, working partners, and family members. By promoting adoption, responsible pet ownership, and humane treatment of all dogs, International Dog Day advocates for a world where every dog is loved, respected, and cared for.

The proceeds of this shirt will go to Pets of the Homeless Australia which provides food, veterinary care, and other support to the pets of people experiencing or facing homelessness. Their mission is to keep pets and humans together through difficult times. They provide this support in a judgment-free environment so that every person experiencing or facing homelessness can feel supported in their actions to care for and stay with their pet.

I’ve just returned from an epic adventure to Kenya, to visit with my sister and her family so our babies could hang out together. I wanted to share some of the incredible animals we encountered whilst on safari at the Masai Mara. I know you’re all animal lovers and would appreciate their beauty as much as we did. Seeing the big cats in real life was truely a magical experience, one I’ll never forget.

Big shout out to my team - Sion, Indi & Ella for taking such great care of our dogs in my absence. I’ve had nothing but positive feedback which really warms my heart.

To communicate with dogs, you must learn to send them messages which they can comprehend, and you must also understand messages which they send back to you.

Humans use complex structure of words to communicate with one another. We sometimes believe that dogs understand what we are saying, however, dogs and other animals rely heavily on body language to communicate. They use their ears, tails, mouth, stance and eye contact to communicate with humans. When using voice to communicate dogs pick up on tone.

06/12/2023

Our group walks go for a full hour, not including pick up and drop off, in safe off-lead areas where dogs are free to explore the natural smells and sounds of the environment and bond with likeminded companions.

Hutt & Hound is dedicated to the safety, health and wellbeing of your dog. We pride ourselves on our risk reduction practices and go above and beyond to ensure your dog is safe whilst in the care of our team.

Now summer is upon us, it’s time to talk about Snake season which typically runs between October to April. The safety of our dogs takes precedence over playing in lush locations during this time. To ensure risk is minimised we avoid high-risk snake prone areas with long grass and bush land. We instead will play in ovals, parks, and swim in locations with lots of doggy & human traffic. Our adventures won’t be as picturesque but that doesn’t limit how much fun we can have with the dogs.

For more information on our summer and snake season protocols please get in touch.

Christmas is 5 weeks away 🫢 how did that happen so fast? Ideally we’d take our dogs with us everywhere, but sometimes that’s just not possible. We are here to help! We have a small team of dedicated dog sitters who are available to care for your dog while you’re away visiting family.

Send through an enquiry and we’ll be in touch with how everything works and the costs associated.

I’m full of charisma and pretty intelligent too. If you come too close, I’ll give you a big sloppy kiss.

Nothing beats a good old fashioned bush walk 🐕

We never want to wish away summer, but with Autumn brings the end of snake season which means we can frolic & play in more wild and rugged locations. We love curating different locations each week for the dogs to explore and we’ve felt a little restricted during peak snake season. Watch this space to see where we venture to each week. 🙏

Group & private walks are back on this Monday, we can’t wait to see all the doggos. Get in touch to schedule a time if you haven’t already!

What a fun week! We’ve got more in store for next week but until then enjoy a wonderful weekend everyone!

⛳️

We are officially on holidays! Returning on the 6th of January. A huge heartfelt thank you to all of our customers who have trusted us with their furry family members. We have exciting plans for 2021 and look forward to sharing them with you! Until then have a safe holiday season 🥳🥳 Hutt & Hound
