✨ COLLARS OFF AT HOME 🏡
This is why I always suggest taking your pups collars off when not on walks or out for the house etc.
Having unfortunately had experience with my husband's dog passing away from the collar getting caught on a hedge branch, the pretty collars just aren't worth it 💔 It only takes a few minutes if even for oxygen to be deprived from the brain...

Delve into the safety risks of dogs wearing collars round the clock. Gain valuable insights into potential hazards and ensure your furry friend's well-being.

Whoever hasn't entered- now's your chance!
Apologies I haven't drew this yet. Life has been busy lol!

Would anyone be interested in a free pastel portrait of their nearest and dearest in return for some likes & shares?
Each portrait will have 1 subject (can be child, adult, cat, dog etc) on 18x24cm
I'll pick one or two people next week at some stage
If you could kindly share this post and/or my page, that would be cool 😎

❌ RAPESEED! ❌

It’s that time of year again where farmers fields have blossomed into pretty yellow flowers, these plants are called rapeseed. Although it may be tempting to place your dog in the midst to take a scenic photo, please avoid this at all costs!

Rapeseed is extremely poisonous for dogs, especially in highly sensitive canines.

Rapeseed is listed by Dogs Trust as toxic to our dogs if ingested and can cause symptoms such as:

❌Haemolytic Anaemia
❌ Blindness
❌ Damaged Nervous System
❌ Digestive Disorders
❌ Breathing Problems

Even walking through these fields should be avoided! In June 2019, a dog was reported to be suffering from severe open wounds after running through a crop of rapeseed.

Please seek immediate veterinary attention if your dog shows any signs of rapeseed poisoning!

Before all things dogs, I am a mum. So of course when I get a bit of spare time I like to draw pictures of ConnieJ. I love this one so have decided to frame it 😍
If any of you like the idea of having a framed drawing of your littles, let me know.

I am a dog-led walker through and through. I follow each pups cues and needs...

When anyone asks me how far I walk with my pups within a given timeframe, I never have one answer. Some distances depend on the size or age of the pup. And some distances depend on the lovely scents along the grass 😂

Take Otis and Simba here, sometimes they walk a brave way and sometimes we only make it round the corner! Lol

I don't mind and I know all owners won't mind either as legs aren't the only things being stimulated on walks, their wee brains are very important too. All the (SSS) sights, sounds and smells are great for them 💕

I know it's only April but I advise booking paintings/drawings for Christmas 🎁🎄shortly to avoid disappointment 😀 Will also save me a lot of stress lol 😆 Here's one I'm working on at the moment!

A solo walking space has become available for weekday mornings (mon-fri). This can be split throughout the week if needed, so 2 people can benefit.

What is solo walking?
Solo walking is a dog (or up to 3) from the same household 🐕

Who could benefit from solo walking?
Those that work long hours, elderly, disabled (I also offer assisted walking) and much more.

I operate in lurgan and close surrounding areas.

Fire me a message if this interests you at all :)

Carly's owner was very kind in letting me post her dearly missed, beautiful girl ❤️ Isn't she lovely?
I'm fully booked to the end of February but I'm still taking orders 😀

28/01/2024

Closed for commissions until end of February 😲 Thanks everyone for your orders and support 🙏💞

There'll be no walks this evening or tomorrow for pups anyway 😞 Get your baby's in nice and cozy!

If anyone still has pets outdoors then bring them in NOW.
We shouldn't need to post this but you would be surprised how many people think its ok for a dog to be outdoors in all kinds of weather 😡😔

11/01/2024

Wow! Thanks you all so much for your unbelievable support these past few days. I've gained so many new followers so thought I'd reintroduce myself (or introduce as don't think I have properly before lol)

I'm kealagh, 26- with 5 babys; 4 fur, 1 human. They are my world 🌍
I officially started my art adventure almost 2 years ago after years and years of debating... 🎨
Last year I then introduced my pet services 🐈 🐕
I've been loving it so far. I've met some lovely people & the best wee animals.

Some of my services include dog walks, pet checks, chaperoning.
With regards to my art- I specialise with animals but also do lots more.
Planning on trying to up my content over next wee while to show off what I really can do!

Hoping to keep this adventure going for as long as I can and I'm so glad you lovely people will be coming along for the ride!

What a better way to end the year than chaperoning Miss Dee to her parents big day💍❤️
Look how proud she looks 😭
Happy Christmas everyone, see you in the new year 🎄Big thanks to everyone that has supported my small business this year- from even the small things like sharing posts, they're all appreciated more than you know!

16/12/2023

Biggest apologies to everyone I've to get back to about orders and bookings. I've been so so sick all week and unable to reply to them.
Those who ordered a while back, please don't be worrying as all will be completed in time for Christmas ❤️ To those dog enquiries, I'm all booked up until end of year. Thank you! Have a lovely Christmas 🎄

‼️ Hate to be this person but sometimes a reminder is needed ‼️
A lot of folk message me for prices and then ghost out or say some reason why they've changed their mind halfway through the piece- trust me, I've heard them all lol Some people begin their order with me and then cop out last minute- which is leaving me with finished pieces that I've spent time and money on, sitting about my studio. Don't get me wrong, some reasons are genuine but some I can't help but think are out of plain nosiness and/or because they don't like the price.
I can assure you my prices are verrry sensible, and this is in no way slandering other liking businesses.
Each person that messages gets a personalised message back. I don't do automatic messages (yet). This is taking time away from other work, messages and my family. I am not a big business- your order genuinely means something to me, a part-time life saver sometimes.
I price my pieces based on a few things like material, time and sometimes additions like postage. I give myself wayyy below the minimum wage for the time I put in.
Again, I'm not a big business- my art isn't mass produced so I can't sell you it for what you've seen in BM (which is sometimes the argument people use). And by all means, those that say they could do it themselves then fair play, work away.
I don't want this message to come across like you can't enquire about anything because that's the last thing I want. This message is directed to those that actively waste my time ➡️🚪
ON AM COMPLETELY DIFFERENT NOTE
Thank you to each and every one of you who support my wee business. It means more than you could ever imagine ❤️

Taking today as a breather, all messages will be replied to tomorrow. Over and out✌️😂
