It’s been a busy last few weeks with all seasons in one day sometimes 🤣💨☔️🌞

Had new pooches Dexter and Gwen begin their walks with me, they’re absolutely wonderful with so much character just being typical spaniels!😂❤️

Me and Annie took a trip to the Lake District over the Easter weekend getting some more wainwrights bagged 🐾🥾

✨Phoenix✨

As the new laws have recently come into force about the XL bully breed, this is the unfortunate reality of all owners of the breed. Phoenix is a gentle and affectionate boy with such a lovely temperament I’ve never had a problem with him with myself or around other dogs! His owner and myself are so dedicated to keeping up his wonderful nature and behaviour, making sure he has just as much of a “normal” walking experience just like all my other lovely pooches!

So please say “hello”👋 to us if you see us out and about! His muzzle covers his beautiful face and can look intimidating but I will assure you he’s a big softie 🥰

❄️**SNOW**❄️
Looks like we’ll be getting some snow tomorrow! I’m planning to do my day as normal but please be aware walks may have to be shorter to ensure I can get to everyone! With that being said please let me know if you won’t be needing me as soon as you can so I can accommodate those who do! 🐶❄️

Thank you, Alex 🤍

Important read about the dangers of conker poisoning 🍂🍁

Have you ever seen conkers lying around near your home or during walks with your dog? In that case, this post is for you.
Conkers or horse chestnuts are often found on the floor during the autumn months. Dogs might find them interesting to chew or to play with, but owners should be aware that they are poisonous to our canine companions.
Conkers come from the horse chestnut tree and they contain a substance called aesculin which is toxic for dogs. Unlike sweet chestnuts (which are delicious and harmless), these chestnuts tend to be bigger and have a lot less spikes on their husks.
Signs of toxicity depend on how many conkers have been ingested and generally include vomiting, diarrhoea, lack of appetite, abdominal pain, excessive thirst, and more serious cases can present with muscle tremors and seizures.
Keep an eye out for these conkers and, if you notice any of the signs mentioned above, bring your dog to the vet as soon as possible!
