Day 5! All about extending leads. Yes, I know they can serve a purpose, but please don't use them if your dog has not been trained to walk properly on a regular lead!

It's cold out there folks. Smaller dogs, puppies & oldies get colder much quicker than bigger, healthy adult dogs, so stay safe as you enjoy the cold days with your dogs 🐶🐾

Does your pet’s fur protect them from the cold? ❄️

In most cases, yes! But in really wet and cold weather, if your pet isn't able to keep active or get themselves somewhere warm, their fur coat may not be enough. Like us humans, our pets, though thankfully rarely, can develop a dangerous and potentially deadly condition called hypothermia.

Any pet can become seriously ill if the temperature of their body drops too low, and acting quickly and doing the right thing could save your pet’s life.

Here are some key symptoms to look out for during the winter months! And if you suspect your pet may have hypothermia, it’s important to call your vet straight away and follow their advice ⚠️

[Visual description: Infographic about hypothermia in pets. Signs and symptoms include; shivering, drowsiness, confusion, clumsiness, pale gums and loss of consciousness/collapse. What you should do; 1. Call your vet straight away and follow their advice. 2. Get your pet out of the cold. Take them somewhere warm (not hot) and sheltered. 3. If your pet is awake, try to get them to drink some lukewarm (not hot) water. 4. If your pet is wet, use towels to dry them by rubbing them over. Change the towels when they become damp. 5. Be careful not to heat your pet up too quickly, this can be dangerous. Use blankets and towels under and over them to keep them warm. Using hot water bottles and heat pads will heat them too quickly and may cause burns.]

*Update & a 2024 catch up - big changes & sad news*

This page went dark for a while as I decided how I was going to move forward with work & my life in general. I got a full time job with the wonderful charity Dogs Trust in January & left the business on the back burner.

In June of this year, I had to say goodbye to my wonderful Brae, who was with me more or less from the beginning of B2R in 2010 💔🌈

It hit me hard & I struggled internally with my feelings.

Then in July, a little red & white boy was handed over to our rehoming centre & i decided he should come home with me.

Introducing Ren, who is now 5 months old 🐶

There'll be more on Ren later!

I'm now working part time at Dogs Trust & have decided to come back to the business again 🥳🎉

I have availability Mondays & Tuesdays for Canine Adventures & Training 🐾🐶

I'll also be back with blogs (a story about my own nightmare experience with hiring a dog walker) & updates on how Ren is doing.

Keep following guys, I've missed you!
