Belle is back and enjoying the beach breeze right now! Can we give a big well done to Belle for ignoring footballs today!! For years she's been football obsessed and chases after them but with good recall and obedience she ignored it all! I'm so proud as this has been a major thing for Belle and her owners for some time!👏

Most people believe it will never happen to their dog, yet every year dogs continue to die in hot cars ⚠️

Polling from the RSPCA (England & Wales) has revealed that only 58% of people would NOT leave their dog inside a car on a warm day, meaning more than 40% may potentially put their pets at risk!

Please don’t gamble with your dog’s life. Even if you're leaving them in the car for a minute or two, this could still lead to tragic consequences for your dog. Even if you're parked in the shade with the windows open, a car can still quickly heat up to dangerously high temperatures 🌡️

Remember: 'not long' is too long.

If you see a dog in a hot car showing signs of distress such as panting heavily, drooling excessively, appearing lethargic, drowsy or uncoordinated, collapsed or vomiting, dial 999 immediately.

Remember, if it’s too hot for your hands or your bare feet, then it’s too hot for their paw pads! ⚠️

If you’re unsure whether it’s okay to let your pet go for a walk on pavements, a simple way to test the temperature is by holding your bare skin on the tarmac for five seconds ⏱️

If you find it painful, then your pet will find it painful to walk on!

To protect your pet, it’s best to avoid walks during the hottest part of the day, which is usually between 8am and 6pm. If you can't safely exercise your dog, missing a day won't hurt.

Just a relaxing sit down for Mabel due to tide being in so she cant go swimming and not much shade for us so we've found a nice shaded spot and we are gonna make the most of it!

A dog won't die from missing a walk but a dog will die from overheating. Keep your loved ones safe.

Me and Turbo are keeping cool in the shade today and constantly topped up with water! We gotta keep our active dogs extra hydrated in this heat!

All muzzled dogs will be walked late evenings.

Due to a lot of muzzles not offering a lot of pant room dogs like rew will struggle just that extra bit more so to keep our dogs safe i'll take them out when it's nice and cool🥶

While walking doggies and pet sitting I've also been rehabilitating woody for 2 weeks after being hit by and car and dragged along tarmac...due to this he had some balding on his wing and chest and his beak misplaced.

After physio and muscle recovery along with vitamins he's finally gained some feather growth and finally managed to go on his journey!

Don't be a stranger woody! Come back anytime🥰
