The sun is finally making an appearance!!! ☀️

Our most recent pack walk was still very muddy but we had sunshine and it was lovely! Looking forward to doing more of these where we can start packing away our coats and wellies 😂😂

Just want to wish everyone a Happy new year!! 2024 has been a tough year for the Mad for Dogs family but we still have each other going into 2025 and we are VERY grateful!!
Want to take this opportunity to thank my customers, you continue to make my dreams a reality and I spend my time with dogs 👏.
Hope your dogs are not too distressed by the awful fireworks later 😔 😡!!!!
Take care all, we’re ready for 2025 now 🐾

😔 🐾

It is with great regret that we feel we have no option but to cancel the Queen Adelaide Christmas Fayre tomorrow - Sunday 8th December- due to the horrendous weather and to ensure the safety of all participants and customers. We apologise for the lateness of the cancellation but we were keeping a close eye on the weather forecast, desperately hoping that it was going to improve.

We are looking at ways that we can still support the stallholders to sell their wonderful handmade products so watch this space!

Please meet Narla.... we took her in as a 7 month old emergency foster at the end of 2023. She is a Collie cross with one blue eye and one brown eye 👌. Unfortunately, she wasnt well socialised when she arrived, so we have worked on this a lot over the last year.
We have now decided to keep Narla and are VERY proud of how far she has come on. She can walk off lead along the main road, travel in the car (will happily jump in and out of the car), go to the pub, meet other dogs and she loves laying out Infront of the fire wit Benji🔥🔥
Welcome to the Mad For Dogs Northampton Family Narla 😍🥰🫶🙌💞💖🌟🐾

Please get in touch if you can give Noble a loving forever home 🥰🐾

This is a sensitive post so please no negative comments. ♥️

Noble needs a forever home. One of our clients asked us to post this.

He is nearly 11 months old. Big bouncy Dalmatian boy.
He will need a constant human that can give him the attention and training he needs. Don't forget he is still a pup!

He will make a fabulous pet for the right home.
We fell in love with him and would have him in a heartbeat if we didn't already have our 2 boys.

He walks nicely on lead but is super strong 💪🏻 he is great with other dogs and people, just has a lot of energy.

If you would like further information please WhatsApp us on 07939 879545 ♥️🐾♥️
The new owners would be fully vetted by the currenr owners (not PMP) to ensure Noble has the best forever home.

The class of September has kicked off in style this morning with our first of two group sniffer training sessions 🥳

Having fun, learning the basics and generally using your dogs brain in a different way makes for an incredibly exhausted pup 🐶

Did you know? 🧠

“Sniffing is mentally and physically exhausting for dogs, often much more so than walking. It’s commonly said that 15 minutes of focused sniffing can be as tiring for a dog as an hour-long walk.”
