Are Christmas trees safe for dogs?
🎄Christmas trees tend to be either fir, spruce or pine. These are all non-toxic to dogs and cats.
🎄While the trees aren't toxic, their needles can still harm your dog. They can be uncomfortable if they get stuck in your dog's paws and a choking hazard if they end up in your dog's throat. If your dog ends up ingesting needles, they could suffer from stomach problems.
✅To keep your dog safe, think about where your tree will go. Placing your tree in a corner and blocking access is a good idea.
✅Regularly vacuuming fallen needles can also help reduce the risk of your dog ingesting them. This is especially important if you have a young or curious dog who might be tempted to explore the tree.
✅Be cautious about the water in the tree stand. This water can collect sap, bacteria, and any harmful preservatives used to keep the tree fresh, which can be toxic if your dog drinks it.
✅Artificial trees often have softer, less sharp needles that won’t come off as easily as those on a real tree. This eliminates the risk of your dog ingesting real pine needles.
However, be mindful that some dogs might still be tempted to chew on branches of artificial trees, so keep an eye on them.

🌟 Nail Clipping 🌟 Due to the Lockdown we are aware some of your pooches may be in need of a pedicure! Hopefully this short video will help you complete this at home. Some other points to remember 💭 ✅If you have a puppy or young dog at home then this is the best time to get them used to having their paws and nails touched! Make sure they grow up used to the procedure as this will make it easier as they get older. ✅ Before you start, make sure you have all your equipment, you may need someone to help you hold the dog if available. ✅ If you do have a dog who is unhappy about having their nails trimmed start with small steps; touching the paws and reward. Then build up to clipping one or two nails a time until they are comfortable with it. ✅ If your dog is getting stressed, take a breather and come back when things have calmed. ✅ The nails contain a ‘quick’ (a pinker area) which is where the blood vessel is. This is easier to see on lighter nails so make sure you don’t cut close to it. The darker nails can be harder to see so make sure you take the tips of the nail off only. ❓Any questions please leave a comment below. ❓

Did you know... Dental disease is the most common disease in dogs and cats. Brushing can help prevent this. If you would like some help please let us know!

Loki is always excited to come in for a cuddle! We always know when he’s in the building as he treats us to a sing song! 🐾🎵🎶

Our Story

Our Story started many moons ago. ‘Where we are’ now and what we would like to offer our clients and ourselves has grown out of all of our life experiences and decisions.

We all, as individuals want to provide our clients and their pets with a kind, caring, compassionate experience working within a collective team environment which we find stimulating and compassionate. We aim to be kind to each other so we can be kinder to you.

We all learn from our life experiences both with people and with pets and we actively seek to work with and grow the good experiences whilst being very mindful of the not so good ones.

In short, as a team we are proud to work together to provide you with the service we ourselves would wish to receive for our pets and for ourselves.
