🐾🤎 Happy National Brown Dog Day! 🤎🐾

Today, we’re celebrating all the gorgeous brown dogs out there—whether they’re chocolate, chestnut, caramel, or café au lait!

Here’s to the spaniels, labs, terriers, and every brown-coated superstar in between. Drop a pic of your brown dog below so we can all admire them in their full glory! 📸🐕

🐾🧩 Happy National Puzzle Day! 🧩🐾

Today isn’t just for humans who love crosswords and Sudoku—our dogs love puzzles too! Enrichment activities are the perfect way to challenge your dog’s mind, burn off energy, and tap into their natural instincts. Whether it’s a snuffle mat, a puzzle feeder, or a homemade game, problem-solving helps keep their brains sharp and their tails wagging! 🐕💡

Remember: enrichment isn’t about keeping them busy—it’s about giving them purpose. So, why not celebrate today by introducing a new game, hiding treats around the house, or even trying some simple scent work? Your dog will thank you for it! 🐾❤️

Let us know—what’s your dog’s favorite puzzle? 👇

Have a listen! I just love this.

Rachel Spencer is the loveliest lady and has so many amazing podcasts to listen to (mostly for pet businesses)

I have got SUCH a brilliant guest on the podcast this week - Laura Hebberd from Pure Dog Adventure Training and we're talking about building a tribe around your pet business.

This is for you if you'd love to work with people who rave about how brilliant you are and go nuts for everything you create.

Laura started her dog training business to cover her horses’ livery costs.

Now, she’s built an amazing, loyal community of dog owners who love hanging out with their dogs and doing 'mad stuff' together!

Based in Darlington in the North East, Laura’s business is all about connection, fun, and belonging.

From hosting classes in castles and paintball arenas to quirky competitions, you never know what to expect from a session.

Laure talks about:

🐾 Volunteering at Dogs Trust as a teenager and working there for 12 years
🐴 Running equine rehabilitation programmes in American prisons
🤕 How a life-changing accident inspired her focus on inclusion and belonging
🎉 Building trust and connection through creativity and fun
👩‍👧‍👦 Creating a safe, welcoming space for everyone
📣 Growing her business through word-of-mouth marketing
🌟 Tips for building a business that reflects your values

I loved this chat, and I hope you do too! Go and let Laura know what you think.

Over the past few months, we have been rattling our brains trying to come up with a way to offer our highly demanded Scent Detection classes to more of you...

We regularly receive training requests and enquiries regarding wait times for our classes and unfortunately (fortunately), our current attendees never want to leave! This makes it extremely rare for a space to pop up on any of our weekly sessions.

However, we have a brand new MONTHLY workshop series starting on a Tuesday evening. This will be the first Tuesday of the month at our venue in Walworth.

Spaces are very limited and if you have previously requested a Scent Detection space with us, I have attempted to contact you via email.

If you want in, you need to let me know fast!

🚨 New Monthly Scent Workshop Group Starting Soon! 🚨

Our monthly scent workshops are kicking off with a brand-new group, and we can’t wait to get started. Held at our farmyard, these workshops are designed to build practical scent detection skills that matter.

Here’s what you can expect:
🔍 Learn how to search and clear an entire building confidently and efficiently.
📅 Meet once a month to train, with plenty of additional support to help you practice and plan in between.
👥 Join a focused, friendly group working towards real progress over the course of a year.

These workshops aren’t about flashy tricks—they’re about developing a skilled, reliable search team (that’s you and your dog). Whether you’re starting from scratch or improving existing skills, we’ll take you step by step through the process.

Ready to challenge yourself and your dog? Let’s get to work. 🐾

Happy New Year, everyone!

Here’s to a brand new year of being unapologetically amazing. No resolutions here—we’re already absolutely delightful, and we fully intend to carry that energy into 2025.

This year is all about dreaming bigger, taking up space, and not letting anyone (including yourself) tell you what you can’t do.

Cheers to all of you who’ve supported us, laughed with us, and joined in the madness along the way. You’re brilliant, and we’re so lucky to have you.

Now go out there and own it. 🎉✨
