Today the famous Romee from Romee Dog Walks joined Tilly, Teddy, Lottie, Rogue and I and was a pleasure as always! He took a shine to Tilly straight away so I think I may have to steal him on a Wednesday again! 🥰💜

Highly recommend a course like this for horse owners/equine professionals. The world of natural remedies and self selection is fascinating and there is so much to learn! Having dabbled and been trained in Zoopharma and Foraging over the years I can vouch for what a difference natural remedies can make to your equines, including donkeys and mules, particularly for my pony with Cushing’s Disease. It’s also great fun to take your equines out for walks in hand and let them browse and forage for themselves! 🐴🌱💜

🌱APPLIED ZOOPHARMACOGNOSY AND FORAGING WORKSHOP🌱 with Victoria Dorman of Natural Animal Therapies

Sunday, 16th April. ✨ BOOK NOW ✨

We are REALLY excited to have a date in the diary for this spring workshop after the huge response we had to the autumn date.

In the wild, selecting plants for their nutritional and medicinal benefits (Zoopharmacognosy) is instinctive behaviour that is practiced daily by animals.

Wild animals have large terrains over which to roam to find exactly what they need, unlike most of our animals in the U.K. who usually have quite limited access to useful plants and the plants that do grow within reach are then often overgrazed.

So to help ours to access the widest range of botanicals possible, the process of Applied Zoopharmacognosy, where plant materials are offered either fresh, dried or as aromatic oils, was developed.

In this workshop you will learn how the magical process of foraging and botanical self-selection can enrich your horse's life and maintain their well being.

🌱 First we will take a foraging walk through the abundant hedgerows and fields to identify the plants growing locally, and their nutritional and medicinal benefits.

🌱 We will then move on to an Applied
Zoopharmacognosy session where we offer fresh and dried herbs, powdered nutrients and essential oils and botanical waters to the horses.

This session is suitable for beginners but also can be enjoyed as a ‘series’ for those who have already attended and want to learn about spring plants.

Date: Sunday, April 16th, 2023
Time: 10am - 3pm
Location: Graveney Equine, Faversham
Price: EARLY BIRD BOOKING £50

It is so much nicer to be kind to each other and follow a professional and personal code of ethics.

Communicating well, thinking of others, being a true professional and treating others as you would like to be treated by showing respect will all help you be the best you can! 💙🐾

I second this! My poor horses stables blew away in the storm on Friday and they are noticeably tired and quiet 💜

Cut them all some slack.
Here in the UK it has been a tough weekend for horses, donkeys, mules and their humans. Storms will have caused changes in routines, lack of sleep, anxiety, hypervigilance, loss of companions, disruption to all they are familiar with. This will all affect their behaviour in the coming weeks.
Remember to cut them and yourself some slack and try not to do anything demanding this week. Let them rest and recover and don't ask anything of them. The same goes for you too.

How awfully sad that a supposed professional does not recognise the signs of a dog in pain! Please don’t take any tips from these TV trainers, instead seek out a positive trainer and/or behaviourist depending on your dogs needs. Please also get a vet check if you notice any changes of behaviour in your dog 🐾💜

Some phrases used on this particular episode of ‘Dogs behaving (very) badly’ where 8 year old Ruby would only get off the sofa if the rug was over the laminate flooring, and would sit down and stop on walks…

‘being a madam’

‘Controlling the diva’

‘Indulging her with rugs’

‘Thinks she’s in charge’

OR

Is this actually a dog in pain, a dog scared of slipping and hurting, a dog trying to tell everyone that she’s uncomfortable?

It’s not indulging her with a rug, it’s making sure her own home is accessible and safe for her. She’s not ‘being a diva’ and refusing to walk, she’s telling you it hurts and she’s uncomfortable.

I’m very glad that the owners realise that this dogs weight is having a significant impact on her life but there are other things that need addressing here. I have no doubt they absolutely adore their girl, that is very clear to see, but I desperately wish they had the right kind of support for Ruby, not just let’s force her to walk and walk on a floor she’s is scared

Dogs Behaving Very Badly and The Dogfather (Graham Hall)… I’m afraid the blame falls to you on this occasion. You have a massive platform with thousands of dog owners watching every episode. How about talking about signs of pain? Indicators of discomfort? When behaviours actually tell us somethings wrong? Ways to adapt houses for older dogs and those that struggle with mobility? You could educate SO MANY owners but no, it doesn’t happen. Instead we just see an uncomfortable dog being forced to walk when she doesn’t want to, and live in an environment that she is scared of.

Dogs need us to advocate for them, to realise when we need to do more and to learn the ways that they tell us something isn’t right. Owner education is the key to this and this could have been a brilliant opportunity to do just that.

The Highway Code has changed from today (29.01.22)

When driving, you should now pass horse riders and horse-drawn vehicles at speeds under 10 mph and allow at least 2 metres of space. Check the changes, let’s keep each other safe.

💚🐾 We would like to introduce you all to our newest family member, Rogue! Rogue came to live with us in early December and he has brought us so much joy already. He loved his first Christmas and has slotted into our family like he was meant to be here.

🇪🇸Rogue is a Spanish rescue (same as Reina) from the wonderful charity .a.spanish.spot who I have supported for a few years now. He was transported over to us by the wonderful team at Homeward Bound pet transport. Rogue is now 7 months old (as of yesterday!) and he is 1/4 Spanish Mastin like our Reina and 3/4 Dalmatian 🐾 we are so in love and can’t wait to have a lot of fun and adventures with our boy. Reina is delighted with her baby brother and we hope that Lacey would approve of us having spots in the house again, carrying on her legacy 💚🐾

2022, let’s do this! 💜

My apologies for being absent for the past few weeks, but I wanted to take this opportunity to wish all my lovely clients and followers the happiest of New Years and I sincerely hope that 2022 is going to be healthy, happy and full of hope for you all 🥂

December has been a particularly difficult month as Covid struck our family which meant I had to finish for Xmas a week early. 2021 has been hard on our family (and so many others!) for a few reasons, mostly losing our beloved Lacey but here’s hoping this year will be kinder!
I have missed all of my dogs so much and can’t wait to get back to work next week and have a fresh start! Thank you to everyone for being so amazing, understanding and empathetic! Sending so much love to you all and I’ll see you all soon!! 💜

🐾 We also have a new family member to introduce to you all but I will do a separate post about that! 🐾

Don’t forget about the choc tox calculator, found by typing in those words into the Google search bar.

Below shows how much of each chocolate type can be toxic to dogs of various weights. Stay safe this Christmas and out the chocolates where the dogs and cats can’t get them!
