Royal Canin is incredibly popular and often prescribed by vets. We have had Royal Canin on the site for a long time but got so many requests to add more of their range - we just added 10 (see comments).

We would love to report that their rating improved considerably on www.allaboutdogfood.co.uk but unfortunately the highest rating is 41% down to 20%.

Are you currently feeding your dog Royal Canin? Is it because of the breed kibble they have or another reason?

Team member in crisis😔

For those who shop in our leith store you would probably have seen Mamba - the incredibly happy frenchie.

Unfortunately on Sunday mamba became paralysed in her back legs and has undergone major surgery.

Theres a go fund me been created which has updates on her progress.

As a company and a family we are devastated and will be fundraising to help with her rehabilitation.

If any company is looking to collaborate on fundraising it would be deeply appreciated.

I understand times are tough at this moment however if you cannot donate it costs nothing to give this post a like and a share.

A little interview with the Evening News regarding the cost of living crisis and some of the ways we have tried to prepare for it.

Owners of the Edinburgh’s oldest pet shop have described how foresight prevented a huge rise in their retail prices but admitted, like many other businesses, they are still feeling the effects of rising bills.
