(33)

Hi we are Allison and Jeff and we offer a Dog Walking and Home Boarding service for your four legged friends. We have been dog owners for the past 30 years and established the business in 2015. We are based on Fellgate Estate, NE32 and can cover South Tyneside, Washington and surrounding areas. WALKING

For walking we cover Jarrow, Hebburn and Pelaw and we will pick your dog up and take them to t

he walk such as park, beach etc with up to 3 other sociable dogs for play time and socialisation. Our walks are for an hour and your dog will be dropped at home afterwards. We do walk in all weathers, however walks will be adjusted accordingly depending on the conditions (i.e hot weather we will go to shady/wooded areas or places with water and play enrichment games). Your dog will get wet and muddy over the winter months. At the moment our walks are Monday to Friday only. Weekends may be possible by prior arrangement, however we do not offer regular slots on a weekend.

£13 per walk (1 hour group walk per dog)
£10 per walk (30 minute group walk per dog)
£18 per walk (1 hour solo walk per dog)
£14 per walk (30 minute solo walk per dog)

Solo walks are outside of our busiest period which is after 2.30pm Monday to Friday. HOME BOARDING

For boarding your dog will live in our home as part of our family and will come out with us on regular walks alongside our walking clients. For boarding we do ask that your dog is fully vaccinated including boosters, or if you choose not to vaccinate a titre test can also be accepted (Leptospirosis is still required if you choose to opt for a titre test). We also ask that they are neutered if over 18 months of age. If your boarding covers a weekend we do go further afield for our walks so they will get an extra adventure too while they stay with us (We often head for the Northumberland Coastal areas)

We hold a 5 star �� license for boarding issued by South Tyneside Council. License Number LN000006742

£30 per Calendar Day (1 dog)

An additional charge of £10 per day applies if boarding falls on a Bank Holiday. Drop off / Pick up times for boarding are
AM - 7am to 9am
PM - 4pm to 6pm

(If your dog has not boarded with us before then we would ask that they arrive in the AM slot so that they get the chance to spend the day with us and get to know us before it is time to settle down on an evening. The cost is the same regardless of chosen slot for arrival day as price is per day and not per 24 hours)

(If your dog is collected in the AM slot on day of departure (Between 7am and 9am) no charge will be made for that day)

A 25% deposit is required to secure your dates and the remainder is due in full before boarding starts. Payments can be made via Cash or Bank Transfer. All major Debit/Credit Cards are also accepted. QUALIFICATIONS

Sad news today 💔
Alfie, who was our very first client when we started out nearly 9 years ago had to be put to sleep forever today 😢
Some of you will remember Alfie or know him from the estate. He was a lovely lad and will be sadly missed.
Run free over that bridge Alfie. Mac will look after you! 🌈

For info. Always worth knowing around this time of year when there are lots of different foods about.

⭐Next up on our A-Z pet poisoning campaign is the letter X⭐

Xylitol is a sweetener that can be found in many products marketed as ‘sugar-free’. It is most commonly found in chewing gums, but can also be an ingredient in some baked goods, peanut butters, ice creams and chewable/sweetened medications.

So far this year, we have taken 560 calls involving xylitol.

It is important to stress that a small quantity of xylitol can cause significant complications in dogs and we recommend that advice is sought after any exposure.

☎️ Pet owners can call Animal PoisonLine on 01202 509 000
🤳 Veterinary professionals can call VPIS on 0207 305 5055

Pick up approximately 10am and drop off approximately 12.30pm

Prize for best Christmas fancy dress on each day 🎁

£20 per dog (must be paid at time of booking to secure a space).

*this is obviously outdoors and in the Winter so your dog will likely get wet and muddy. If for any reason the ground conditions prevent us from attending a full refund will be given*

It's that time of year again...

Many shops and supermarkets have stocked up on festive rawhide treats and stockings. THESE SHOULD NOT BE FED TO YOUR DOG.

Many of us are confused and outraged that these are still being made and sold. However, there are lots of dog owners out there who may not be aware of the dangers of rawhide- we need to do our best to educate them.

✋ Rawhide production is generally far from what you would call 'natural'. In many cases, the final product has been subjected to all sorts of potentially harmful chemicals, such as bleach or hydrogen peroxide
✋If your dog swallows large pieces of rawhide, they can get stuck in the esophagus or lower in the digestive tract. In some cases, rawhide obstructions require emergency abdominal surgery to remove the blockage and if it doesn't come in time, dogs can die.

What a day!
Roads were shocking this morning and it took us forever just to get from Jarrow to Hebburn!
Thanks so much to those of you who managed today without a walk. ♥️
We did have fun in the snow for the ones that did come out to play. Charlie and Teddy made themselves in to little snowmen 🤣

Roddaz had great fun racing about with his sister, Delilah ♥️

We will back tomorrow as normal for everyone with regular days unless you have already told us otherwise. We are definitely ready for some lovely long walks after all the lazing about🐾♥️ (Just a reminder that the new prices started this week too 😊)

Charlie and Roddaz have hit it off! 👍❤️ #rodneythecocker2023 #doggyfriends #homeboardingfordogs #homeboarding #dog #dogfriends

Mack has been here boarding for 3 weeks now and has taken Rodney under his wing and they've got along great. Roddaz will miss him when he goes home next week 🐶🥰 All quiet and snoozing😴

Didn't get any photos today unfortunately as weather was so bad. This was the bridge at Primrose at lunchtime today and I'm sure by now this will be over the bridge! Let's hope this rain gives up soon! 🌧🌧🌧

Love seeing videos like this. Gus waiting for the doggy bus this morning 😆❤️

Happy 11th Birthday to our beautiful Sydney 🥰 She has been through the mill medically over the years and she has done amazingly well to get to this point! Always a Diva and always keeping the naughty boys in check 🐾❤️🐶 See you soon 🎊

OK Mother! What's this wet stuff falling out the sky?! Have you seen the state of my hair! 🌧

Nice warm hairdryer after a walk in the rain 😆#pamperedpuppy #aldispecialbuys

The whole garden to play and they're all squashed in one corner 🙄😆

Bramble has decided she likes Rodney after all ❤️🐶

Didn't take Rodney long to learn the snuffle mat. He has met Poppy and Cooper this morning and Stan is here too for an overnighter and all is good. Poppy and Cooper have Rodney's little brother too so once he is allowed out he will join us for boarding too so can't wait to see him again ❤️

First snuffle mat for Rodders 🐶🐽

Aww, Olly has come out of his bed and lay next to Rodney ❤️ Anyone that knows Olly will know that he takes no interest at all in any other dog and prefers his own company... well not tonight... he may like his little brother 🤞❤️ Olly 12.5 years, Rodney 8 weeks 🥰

Rodney and Dax (one of our boarding dogs) have made friends and are loving it now. Dax was a bit unsure of Rodney when he arrived but they've made good doggy pals now 🥰.. too cute. Diesel was dying to join in but I think he realised he was too big and just watched them from the sidelines bless him. He has been so gentle with them ❤️

Our very own lunatic has been back at the vet today for his check up after his elevated liver enzymes a couple of weeks ago. He has had more bloods done and his levels are still elevated but no where near as high as they were so they're going in the right direction 🙏👌 He has actually been sick again today but we're pretty sure it isn't related and the greedy sod has tried to swallow his tripe stick whole as it came back up the same as it went down! This bloody dog has never had any sense! 🙄

❤️ Olly ❤️ Please keep Olly in your thoughts 🙏 He hasn't been well this last week (vomiting on and off since last Monday) and he had a blood test yesterday which has brought up elevated liver enzymes. He is back at vet in the morning to try and find out what's going on. Fingers crossed it isn't anything too major 🙏. We're under no illusions he is no spring chicken at 12 years old but he has been doing so well so hoping there are a few more years left in the old dog yet!. Nothing but a worry these dogs ❤️😩
