We are your local, family owned Natural Pet Emporium. All the food and treats we stock have been expertly selected to ensure they are natural and species appropriate for your dogs and cats (and a little range for other small furries!) The accessories and toys are high quality and all tested on our own pets. We won’t sell anything designed to cause fear or pain. We welcome dogs in the shop and encourage them to bring their owners in to browse!

Today is 8 years since we first opened in our original location, we have now been in Old Newton longer than we were at Stonham Barns. To celebrate our birthday we will be giving out free hot drinks from our Rijo machine. Franklin will be busy putting away deliveries from The Dogs Butcher, Dougies and Hear Me Raw and Jessy will be putting the stock on the website!

Franklin is wondering if size matters? If it does we have pizzles in 12cm, 24cm and 48cm sizes for your dog to choose (chews?) from! The 48cm are new in and are £6.50. They are not odourless though!

2025 delivery schedule, this along with T&Cs for deliveries can be found here https://doodledales.co.uk/pages/local-delivery-routes-calendar. I have started putting full boxes (Southcliffe and DAF) on the website which can be ordered for delivery or collection. We do also deliver nationally by Royal Mail tracked24. We only charge what it costs us to send, we reuse polyboxes and the cardboard boxes around them for our deliveries because it saves costs and also reduces waste. For our own deliveries we reuse the polystyrene boxes as much as we can so can collect the empties with the following order. We have increased our delivery area to include Kings Lynn on every other Wednesday. Other deliveries are generally on a Thursday.

We love these new Summit Sign leads. Not only do they carry useful messages but they are comfy to hold and have good quality locking clips and a traffic handle built in. We think they would pair well with one of our hoodies. You can have the design on a different colour if you prefer! (We can do all sorts of other designs too) the leads are £25 and the hoodies are £20. The halo lights are also new, they have different colour options all in one light and are usb rechargeable. (£16 for those)

It’s a sad weekend for the Doodledales crew as we have had to say goodbye to Jasper the Airedale (the dale part of the business name) he wasn’t that well known in person as by our own admission he could be a k**b sometimes (we took him to work once - he couldn’t deal with all the people coming and going, wasn’t particularly welcoming!) He was a lovely lad who gave Jenny and Brian lots of love and companionship. Rest well JJ
