Less than a year ago this sweet girl was kept in a barn and used to breed litter after litter. Now look at her.

As a dog trainer I can't stress enough the importance of patience when teaching your dog. That along with calm energy and making training fun for you and your dog. I follow a few dog trainers as I like to keep up to date with positive training methods. The Glasgow Dog Trainer and Behaviour Consultant is by far my personal favourite.

Hello everyone,

This is Sassy, she was mum's beloved fur baby. Sadly, my mum passed away recently so we are looking to find Sassy an amazing family to give her a new home full of love and play.

As it was just her and my mum I think she would be best suited to an adult only home as she is used to a quiet home environment. Sassy is around 6 years old. She is sweet natured and good with other dogs. She is also house trained.

I would of taken her myself in a heart beat but I'm currently looking after two dogs long term myself and unfortunately do not have the room.

Please message me or call me on 07513 892431 for more information.

Thanks for reading,

Liz.

Bailey.

Breed: Swiss Mountain dog.

What can I say about Bailey? He is just an all-round lovely boy. When I first met Bailey nearly a year ago, he would happily wander off when he was walked off the lead. Constantly on the lookout for a rabbit to chase. When the walk was finished, I would recall him back to me, but he would often take a while to come as he preferred to continue doing whatever he was doing.

Nearly a year on, we have built quite a special bond. I no longer have to recall him. He has to know where I am at all times. He runs back to check where I am, almost panicking if I am not in his sight. If I stop walking, he comes to my side and waits until I move again.

Bailey's favourite snack at the end of a walk is sausages. I forgot them once, and since then when I pick him up after excitedly saying hello he checks that I have his sausages. As with all my doggy customers, Bailey is a joy to walk, often making me smile or giggle.

Likes: sausages, chasing rabbits, digging for moles.

Dislikes: when you forget sausages, eye contact with horses 😆

To celebrate Trixie's Pet Services 1st birthday, featuring some of our dog customers would be nice. I have come to know so many beautiful dogs and their pet guardians. Each of them has their own personality.

First up, we have Peg.

Breed: Collie

Peg is a sweet girl who gives the best hugs and face washes once she gets to know you. She is always up for an adventure. She is as you would expect of a collie-type breed, highly intelligent. When happy, she bounces through her walks, often identifying as a Gazelle. She has bags of energy when out on sniffari, and often takes a regal stance when checking out the landscape.

Walks with Peg are always fun. She is always excited when I arrive. Her mum and dad think that it is probably because I am her ride to wherever we are going. I think, secretly, I am her favourite human 😂

Likes: long walks/sniffari's, car rides (to long walks, sniffari's), large logs, jumping, running.

Dislikes: Traffic.

So today I went down. I went down hard on a patch of ice. I'm used to my share of injuries, it's pretty much an everyday occurrence. It just kind of goes with the job, but this was different. This was hard.
As I layed there for a bit with the wind knocked out of me, assessing my potential injuries in my head (like any trauma nurse would do🤔), unable to quite bring myself to stand up, I looked up, and from across the snowy pasture this sweet boy came running. Normally, he's cautious as he navigates his way through the snow, but when he saw me go down, he bolted in my direction. He stood over me, assessing my injuries, giving me nudges and sweet little licks on my ear. As I finally stood up, he stood close so I could lean on him, as we made our way back to the barn.
This is love. This is sentience. He was gentle, he was patient, he was kind. He was genuinely concerned about me.
This is an animal that so many people blindly, ignorantly, selfishly cause imaginable suffering to every single day without a thought. For a meal they will quickly forget about. A life of suffering, a death so traumatic, because people refuse to change their habits.
Please see them as someone.
Please make it make sense. Please stop contributing to their unnecessary suffering.
