🌹❤️ Happy Valentine's Day from Pawsitively Yours Pet Care! ❤️🌹

We're celebrating the love we share with our furry, feathered, and scaly friends today! 🐾

Whether it's a wagging tail, a gentle purr, or a playful hop, our pets show us unconditional love every day.

To all our wonderful clients and their beloved companions, thank you for letting us be a part of your family. We hope your day is filled with love, cuddles, and lots of treats! 🐶🐱🐢🐔🐹🐰🦆

Share a photo of your pet feeling the love today and tag us! We'd love to see how you're celebrating with your pets. 📸💕

I don’t share many photos of my clients dogs for many reasons:

- my clients are private individuals
- I share the photos and/or videos to my clients directly with a report
- I would rather spend quality time with your pets by giving them the attention they deserve and need, and less time on social media
- social media is a borrowed platform - if my group/page closes, then we’ve lost our connection and wonderful memories

If this resonates with you, please get in touch and arrange your meet and greet [email protected]

⚠️We keep seeing more and more people being attacked by dogs, whether it is their own or someone else’s dog.

🐕‍🦺A dogs body language can tell you a lot of things, but the most important thing you can do is keep your dog on a lead at all times. If your dog doesn’t like the lead, then you need to train them! It is the law, that they must be on a lead (with exceptions) especially if they don’t have great recall and in public spaces.

🪴They shouldn’t be able to escape your garden. Your garden should be completely dog proofed.

👮Unfortunately, the owner of this dog is going to be in serious trouble with the law.

❓Did you know- just your dog approaching or walking past someone is a criminal offence if the person is feeling scared.

A person was taken to hospital after being attacked by two dogs in Sporle Road, Swaffham, at around 6am on Wednesday.

Ever wondered if your dog needs to carry their ID? 🐶 Turns out, unless your furry friend is a secret agent on official duty or moonlighting as a sheepdog, they need a collar with your name and address! No more excuses, Fido! 😉

Hi everyone!

Just a quick note to let you know that I’ll be unavailable today from 9.30am til 1.30pm due to training and dog walking commitments, followed by a hospital appointment for my son.

I will get back to any messages tomorrow.

Thank you for your understanding! 🐾 ❤️

🌟 Friday Focus: Understanding Dog Body Language

Does your dog get overexcited or worried around other dogs? You're not alone! Understanding what your dog is telling you is the first step to better walks.

Key signs to watch for:
• Tail position and movement
• Ear position
• Body stance
• Eye contact
• Lip licking or yawning

👉 Top Tip: Give your dog space when they need it. Not every dog wants to say hello, and that's perfectly okay!

Want to work on your dog's confidence? Join our supervised dog socials at Manor Farm Dog Meadow - a safe space for proper introductions! 🦮

Tired of being pulled on walks? You're not alone - it's the #1 challenge for UK dog owners!

Quick tips to help your walks become more enjoyable:
• Start in a low-distraction area
• Stop walking when your dog pulls
• Mark with a 'yes' and reward when the lead is loose and they look at you
• Practice in your garden first
• Consistency is key!

💡 Remember: A tired dog isn't necessarily a well-trained dog. It's about teaching, not tiring!
