A common use of the leftovers carcass is putting it out for the birds and wildlife.

First of all its not good for them but lets look at what can happen if your dog gets hold of it.

CHOKING

Bone fragments are a choking hazard, potentially blocking the dog's oesophagus and restricting their breathing. Especially when a dog tries to eat quickly.
If your dog is choking, gagging, retching, drinking a lot of water, licking their lips, pacing anxiously or is unable to sit or lie down comfortably, call your Vet straight away 🚑

GASTROINTESTINAL OBSTRUCTION

These fragments can get stuck and cause dangerous gastrointestinal blockages requiring surgery 🚑

PERFORATIONS AND TEARS

Turkey bones break easily into shards that can puncture the stomach and intestines leading to peritonitis and can be life threatening.🚑

PANCREATITIS

High fat foods like the turkey skin etc can cause inflammation of the Pancreas causing Pancreatitis.
Most cases need immediate medical attention. Acute pancreatitis symptoms can include distended, painful abdomen, loss of appetite, vomiting, diarrhoea , dehydration, and yellow greasy or foamy stool.
It can be life threatening 🚑

SALMONELLA

The carcass can also create dangers as it may harbor salmonella, an organism that lives in the turkey’s intestinal tract.
If the carcass sits out at room temperature for too long, the bacteria will multiply, and pets can become violently ill from eating it. This can happen feeding the giblets too if not fresh 🦠

CONSTIPATION OR DIARRHOEA

Eating too much bone can cause digestive issues including constipation or the opposite, diarrhoea which may need Veterinary intervention.
If your dog produces black faeces, call your Vet as this can be a symptom of internal bleeding

BONE BROTH

You could use the carcass and make a great healthy bone broth for your dog 🐶

Just looking at my average miles and steps per day over the last year, averaging over 10-13 miles a weekday, on my rest days dropping to 5-7 miles over the weekend, trying to figure out how to fit in a run 🏃🏻‍♀️?

I often get asked if I know any groomers, one of my regulars goes here x

I am pleased to say that I am now in a position to take on a small number of new dogs. These new places are for small, well behaved dogs only, weighing up to a maximum of 12kg (adult weight).

I have to stress that I cannot take on any dogs who have known behavioural issues when being groomed (e.g. won’t tolerate being brushed, attack the hairdryer etc) or dogs that have been asked to leave their previous groomers.

If you are interested in joining my client list then feel free to WhatsApp me on 07946 728584.

How true 🤪

🐾Playing with puppies and kitties all day sure is fun, but we do so much more than that. This is a career. We are small business owners with a passion for pets, and just like any other business, there are many ‘hats’ we wear.

🧢Some of them we don’t always enjoy, so we choose to delegate them, while other roles really connect with our personal mission and values. These are the ones we can dig into and grow as an individual. You do so much behind the scenes and we hope you know it does not go unnoticed.

What’s your favorite role?

I was recently asked how my job makes
me feel, being a home boarder I get the health benefits of exercising outside and not to forget the cuddles 🥰 while my clients can make memories, I asked my current client if I could share some of their photos, how amazing are these !!

🎈🎈Happy business start-up day 🎈🎈 7 years and counting !! Where does the time go ? I’d like to say a massive thank you to all my clients and each and everyone of you for supporting & helping me along the way 🐶🐾🥾❤️ ###
