Your dogs leash is a communication cord even when not attached.

Sometimes we have to transport our own pet. It's a secret place though and she's sworn to secrecy...given there's a supply of Pork Scratchings.

As both Behaviourists and Nutritionists it's great to see an article that backs up what we have been saying for so long...

Before the pandemic, it was the best time ever to be a human. We lived longer, fought less and had more opportunities than our ancestors. This is the world that we hope to return to soon.

But what about for dogs? For them, these years are quite possibly the worst time to be alive.

970,000 UK dogs suffer with mental health issues.
Over 85% of dogs display “problem behaviours”, including:
> Eating grass or poo
> Constant barking
> Furniture chewing
> And separation anxiety
Unwanted behaviours are behind a third of dog deaths under the age of 3.
Behaviour issues have risen by 25% in the past 2 years.
Mental health has become the biggest problem dogs face today.

All the research agrees. UK dogs today suffer from more behaviour issues than ever.

And dog behaviour expert Dr Michael Lazaris says the pandemic has exposed a crisis that’s been building for decades.

Dr Lazaris has treated over 15,800 dogs in the past 10 years. He’s seen how our dogs are suffering, first-hand.

“It’s not just dogs’ mental health that’s crumbling. Every day more dogs come to my practice with physical problems that weren’t an issue 10 years ago.”

“Look at golden retrievers for instance: their lifespan is now a whole 7 years shorter than it once was.”

“More than half of dogs over 10 now get cancer. And rates of digestive disorders, obesity, joint pain, and allergies are at a record high.”

Michael has made a terrifying connection, something no one else has spotted:

“Canine behaviour and health problems are skyrocketing, because there’s one cause behind both problems.”

“Bad nutrition in modern dog food”

The research is damning:

A recent study from The University of Nottingham found up to 94% of all dog foods today lack vital nutrients. And according to a "Which?" investigation: premium foods are just as bad as cheap ones.

Bad nutrition impacts a dog’s behaviour, as well as their health.

Grass eating, scavenging, chewing and digging are signs of a dog trying desperately to find nutrients.

They can feel something is wrong, and it makes them very stressed, so they’re also much more jumpy and clingy

Because being starved of nutrients causes painful digestion, achy joints, low energy and dry, itchy skin.

It even shortens their lives.

Fortunately, it doesn’t have to be this way.

Dr Lazaris has discovered a technique that eliminates these problems, simply by bringing crucial nutrients back to a dog’s diet.

His method has already helped thousands of dogs kick bad behaviours and get their health back since it went public.

One pet parent remarked:

“This is amazing! If you want to help your dog live a long, happy life, this method is astonishing. So easy and so effective.”

Michael now wants to share this new technique with as many owners as possible.

So he’s created a short video revealing the steps to help any dog kick bad behaviours and live a longer, healthier life.

Plus support healthy joints, good digestion, and a strong immune system.

“It’s something any owner can do at home, in under a minute a day, without even changing your dog's food,” Michael says

My petition:

Stop unscrupulous operators transporting pets throughout Europe and the UK

Introduce licence checks for pet transporters at Borders and immigration points.

DEFRA and The dept of agriculture for and marine in Ireland insists that transporters of pets and small animals are licence. These licences are never checked on entry or exit to the UK which is leading to untrained and unlicensed operators putting animals welfare at risk. A robust system should be put in place to check these operators and deny them the right to operate as with any licence. Euro tunnel actively carry out pet welfare checks at the border but not on the transportation company

It really saddens me when I get a call from client which has been subject to a con from a so called breeder. New dog owners are being duped into puppies that are not old enough to leave their Mum and worse still been vaccinated by a vet prior to the 6 week age. False.papers, the rise in parvo virus are all due to this illegal puppy trade. I feel so angry

07/07/2021

Its very important for pups to spend a minimum of 8 weeks with Mum and the litter to give them good social skills. These guys have 3 weeks to go before we look for forever homes

17/06/2021

Sad to say that the Puppy market exploded and now is in decline. We let our Labrador have a litter purely for reasons of fulfilment. There are now so many pups on the market...if you are looking to take one be sure you can make the commitment.

With the rise in dog thefts I firmly believe there needs to be a government register that records every dogs microchip. No dog can be sold without a microchip certificate and it needs to be against the law to but a dog without one

13/02/2021

I am sure we are loving time with our dogs during Lockdown. My worry is what happens when we all return to work and have to leave our dogs at home some of which have not been socialised or experienced being alone.
I do believe we will have so many seperation anxiety issues and possibly destructive dogs. Act now and avert these issues prior to them beginning. Call 07772277222 and we can enrol you on a "pre get back to work stategy" We have remedial measures we can offer also.

Post Covid pet issues. Ok so I am sure we are all loving time with our pampered pooch as I am. What happens when all return to work and they are left alone ? Seperation anxiety needs to be taken seriously and we really believe we have found the solution. Call us to discuss on 0777 2277222

Dog's do get depression ! Ever looked at your dog and thought he knows I am about to leave? A dog can pick up on many things including your mood, so if lockdown is getting you down it probably giving your dog the blues too. Take time out for play, even if you don't feel like it, it can brighten you up to as your dog will always be entertaining. Give them lots of what makes them happy and try not to change routines. If your dog just won't pick up there maybe an underlying medical issue! Off to the vets.
Diets are important too and need to be tailored to your dog, as a qualified canine nutritionists we can look what fits with your dogs life style, age, and breed.
