Brilliant meetup for the Horwich professional dog walker group today at Skipadoos - The secure dog field - Bolton.
It was great to meet Dojo Dogs and The Canine Quest despite the soggy rain. We had such a fun time, we forgot to take photos! (Sorry the rest of you missed it!)

If you need a local dog walker, give one of us a message. If we can’t help, we probably know someone who can!
(And if you’re a dog walker and want to join our gang, we’d be happy to have you.)

Excited to see a local shop stocking muzzle movement muzzles. 🤩
These are a much more bespoke fitting than the ones from pets at home.

Muzzle training is an essential skill for all dogs. Just think - if your dog ends up injured at the vet one day, they will likely need to be muzzled. If they are already used to it, the experience will be much less distressing for them.
