***Glue traps are to be banned in England!!!***

This is a cause that many, including myself, have fought for and I couldn't be happier that these barbaric and grossly inhumane torture devices have been shown bin!

If you ever hear of or see anyone (including businesses) using these please always report them to your local animal protection authority/charity.

This is another amazing step forward!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

I'll always share this for awareness!

PLEASE DO NOT USE GLUE/SNAP TRAPS OR POISONS!
It causes such horrific suffering (including slow internal bleeding or death by starvation).
These methods also harm other wildlife species, pets and in some cases children!

But I don't want [insert species] in my house?!
Easy! Don't provide them with their resources. Make sure you store food stuffs and rubbish correctly. Block up any holes in your house that they might use to get in etc. They're often opportunistic, so don't give them that opportunity! 'Problem' solved 👌

(Keep your eyes peeled for a petition to get these banned in the UK! Shocking that they're aren't already, isn't it?)

What type of dog water bowl do you use? 🐶💧

The dog water bowl has previously been identified as the third most contaminated🦠 item within the household and can be a breeding ground for dangerous germs & life-threatening bacteria🧫 that can put the entire house at risk, researchers at University Centre Hartpury have revealed.

So, which dish is best to use for a dog water bowl? The bowl that grows the least amount of life-threatening bacteria!

In the first study of its’ kind, Hartpury scientists found stainless steel grew the least amount of bacteria and over time, plastic bowls grew the highest amount, but the shocking part was the most harmful bacterial species (including salmonella, E. coli and MRSA) were most frequently identified in CERAMIC bowls!

Lead can also be a problem when using ceramic bowls, and the endocrine disrupting chemicals found in plastic bowls are a no-go! Also be aware plastic bowls🥣 can cause Plastic Dish Nasal Dermatitis🙀: Chemicals in plastic absorb through the skin and inhibit the synthesis of melanin, leaving the nose👃🏼 and adjacent areas with pink blotches.

So stainless steel🍴 bowls are the safest, right?

Well not so fast…. there’s even been recalls on stainless bowls😫. In our upcoming The Forever Dog book, in the chapter titled Environmental Impact and the section labelled “Toxic Toys, Chews, and Beds", we cover how to choose the best chemical-free bowls🚫 that won’t leach contaminants over time. The Forever Dog is available now for pre-order, worldwide, check out the www.ForeverDog.com/about

Those ears! ❤

13 week old Charlie giving us a paw by paw demonstration on how to achieve maximum comfort at Little Blue Barn!

Soo! I had this idea a while a go but never got a chance to try it out. As it was today, Shilo felt very adventurous and so I video'd her! I have a video editor on my phone, one thing lead to another and this happened. *Disclaimer* My phone camera is pretty poor, I might try it on my DSLR next time & I don't claim to be Spielberg or anything just wanted to give it a go.

And the winner is... Amy Shepherd!!! :D I have messaged you Amy!! Thank you to everyone who entered. I am hoping to sweet talk Martin Storey Art and maybe host a similar competition when we reach 200 likes! *I apologise for the horrendous quality of the video*

Smokey is our resident old boy here at Little Blue Barn. He likes nothing better than to play amongst his towel tassles!

Our Story

Hi,

My name is Beth and I own Little Blue Barn. LBBAB is family run, small animal boarding establishment which is situated in Guisborough, North Yorkshire. In 2020, we will be celebrating our 5th year in business! We have had the pleasure of looking after many pets of all shapes and sizes over those years and we are excited to see what other wonderful pets come to visit!

I am not new to animal care and husbandry. I have been in the industry, both studying and working for over 10 years. As some of you might already know, I am a bit of a glutton for punishment and started my masters degree in animal welfare science, ethics and law in September (2019). Which will help work towards my aim of becoming a lecturer.

The services we offer currectly are bunny and guinea pig boarding. We have a secure, purpose built out building to house your pets in when they stay with us (see the pages cover photo ;) )
