🚨IMPORTANT NOTICE🚨
We have clocked 25 degrees today which has been incredibly hot for both the pets and ourselves. Walks will be kept into shaded areas however walks night be shorter than the original alloted time for the safety of your animal. We will try to compensate this time with garden/ indoor time whilst ensuring ample opportunity has been provided for your dog to go to the toilet. Please refer to you copy of terms and conditions for more information or let us know if you need a new copy or have any questions. This will be the same procedure for all days deemed to hot and heat stroke risk to pets. We will also be ensuring water bowls are topped up as always and encourage you to ensure your pet is left with plenty of access to fresh water. Let us know if you have any concerns or wish to discuss.

Many thanks, Pooch Pals Team x

We walked Bluey in Dalby today (thankfully saw no adders) but did come home to find 2 tiny ticks in her fur around her neck. So just sharing for people to be aware they're about! Make sure you're checking pup and yourselves.

We actually rarely walk separate household dogs together and you may wonder why? Because naturally it would be easier on our legs if we could match dogs up and walk multiple together. We could expand our client intake and it would be a win win for all involved. The dogs could make friends, socialise and have a different sensory experience that perhaps you aren't able to offer.

And the simple reason we don't... we just don't have that many compatible dogs. Our priority is always to make sure your dog is comfortable and happy on their walks. Unfortunately a majority of the dogs we walk are rescues that have come from trauma and so it just wouldn't be possible to match these that need to take sometimes months just to trust ourselves.

However.... if you do wish your friendly and sociable dog to have a companion walk, feel free to discuss your needs with us and we can take a look and see if we have any dogs that would be compatible 🙂

Wishing all of our clients a wonderful belated Merry Christmas from us and our own fur family. We had our own pet emergency yesterday with Alaska going to Helmsley vets for 3 very nasty hot spots, one which was massively oozing and starting to bleed. Thankfully she's picked up and back on her food today 😊

Seen this and felt it was worth a share if it keeps more pets safe this season. Don't forget to check what other food and plant items are also dangerous this time of year as its can often end up being a busy time for vets with accidental consumption of toxins!

How do your pets react to the Christmas tree? Or is it too early to ask 😅

Just a little update to say we are 100% open and always have been. We noticed today google stated we are permanently closed which has never been the case. Unfortunately we do not know if this was an honest mistake or malicious that someone has edited our listing but we are here to help with your pets.

*we are currently full for dog walking however do have pet sitting spaces available. If you are looking for pet sitting over the festive season please get in touch ASAP as we do get booked up quick!
