Life saving Pet First Aid Course at Starbucks in Maidstone King street

13/10/2023

So the day has come:
Its officially Olivia & Charlotte's last day 😢
Both of them are off on new adventures after today.
Olivia has been an amazing dog walker and has created some fantastic strong bonds with both dogs and their owners. We are sure all of our pups will miss her terribly.

Charlotte has done some amazing things at PJ Paws HQ. Shes been out to meet owners and dogs and even laid up the path to get some fantastic pictures showcasing these incredible creatures.

What PJ Paws has lost the world gains today.
Good luck Olivia & Charlotte
love from all the animals at PJ Paws🐾🐾

13/10/2023

It is with great sadness that today is also Charlottes last day with PJ Paws.

Charlotte’s help, contribution and wealth of knowledge has been invaluable to us and her customer facing skills have proven second to none.

All the dogs she has met will miss her.

I hope everyone will join me in wishing her all the best with her future endeavours.

Kind regards,
Patrick

Olivia has been an amazing employee throughout her time with us and has created some beautiful, strong bonds with all the dogs she has been involved with. We know all her pups will miss her and will be devestated to see her leave us.
Thank you Olivia.
Good Luck 🐾🐾

Scent work is such an important part of your pups life.
Did you know:
Dogs smell receptors are 10,000 times more accurate then humans.
20 minutes of sniffing is equivalent to a 1hr walk in terms of enrichment.
Dogs can sniff at the same time as breathing.
Some Dogs can even smell medical conditions, such as Diabetes, Anxiety and Epilepsy.
