We can’t believe we have now been open for 3 months! We love caring for and getting to know you and all your pets as well as welcoming our new clients.

We have also been learning about our neighbours here at Greenham Business Park. One being the West Berks Foodbank, and all the great work they do providing support to the local community. Especially the work they are doing to help families in need over the summer period.

With this in mind we are excited to announce our charity ‘Walk and Talk’ event taking place on Sunday 11th August from 9am until 11am. All proceeds from this event will be donated to the work of the Foodbank.

Coffee, Tea and Cake will be available to purchase from the Rolling Coffee Bean who will also be donating some of their profit from the day to the work of the Foodbank.

Please join us with your four-legged friends. This maybe overwhelming for some dogs as there may be a large group. We will be starting at the practice for a 5km walk. Come along and have a chance to chat to us about your furry friends.

You can sign up to the event via the link below. The suggested donation is £2 per dog. Additional cash donations will also be greatly appreciated on the day. We look forward to seeing you there!

Great advice 🐶

Heatstroke can be fatal for dogs. Learn what the symptoms are and how to care for a dog showing signs of heatstroke after being in a hot car.

24/06/2024

Remember, if it’s too hot for your hands or your bare feet, then it’s too hot for their paw pads! ⚠️

If you’re unsure whether it’s okay to let your pet go for a walk on pavements, a simple way to test the temperature is by holding your bare skin on the tarmac for five seconds ⏱️

If you find it painful, then your pet will find it painful to walk on!

To protect your pet, it’s best to avoid walks during the hottest part of the day, which is usually between 8am and 6pm. If you can't safely exercise your dog, missing a day won't hurt.

Fun night out with the NDDTS Team! Without all these people training would never be able to happen on a Tuesday evening. Everyone gives their time voluntarily and we are truly grateful to have such a wonderful team on board. ❤️🐶🌟🥰

10/06/2024

Well done to Carol Clack and Angie Einon for pulling off a great show for nddts which everyone seems to have appreciated. 🙏🐶👏Hope you enjoyed the day ladies and thanks for your support on the open obedience show. Thanks to everyone who supported Carol and Angie as it couldn’t happen without you all. I hope the obedience folks continue to give you their full support to enable it to continue as you are doing it for them! We will continue to run the Newbury and District Dog Training Society Club weekly so you have a club that can hopefully mean that it is possible for an Open Obedience Show to be underwritten financially. Thanks also to Basingstoke for their help and assistance towards the back to back shows which seemed to work well apparently at the new venue albeit it not near Newbury. Hopefully lots of happy people and dogs and books balancing at the end of the day. 🙏👏🐶🥰

Super proud of NDDTS competitors in the lineup at the Open Show today. Big congratulations to Teasel and Caroline on their win and Amanda and Layla for their third place. Brilliant! 🥰🎉🥳🐶🐶❤️xx

Well WET WET WET!! That sadly seemed to be the theme for the Hampshire Rally competition held yesterday. Big well done to all our NDDTS competitors, coaches/trainers and their dogs 👏👏👏. The Senior Team won their class and the Junior Team were 3rd and NDDTS overall was runner up!

Massive thank you to everyone involved you all know who you are but particular thanks to Amanda Cole Caroline Booth Carol Clack and Angela Einon. 🐶🥰

🐶‼️Derek West from Basingstoke Dog Club has posted this. If anyone would like to get involved please let us know. Angela Einon will be NDDTS coordinator and can be contacted on [email protected]. All volunteers gratefully received! 🐶‼️

I am looking for volunteers to help at our open obedience show in conjuction with Newbury Dog Training Society 8th June 2024 at Ansty Park Alton GU34 2NB.
We need help with setting up the show on Friday 7th June, erecting rings, car park marshalling, seeing in the caravans for weekend camping. During the show we are desperately in need of scoreboarders to assist in working with the judges and stewards to record scores of each class. Even if you have never done any of this or been to an obedience show before that’s not an issue. We will feed and water you for the day.
If you would like to assist leave a comment, speak to your trainer, or send me a message.
You will have a fun filled day, and we are nice people.

Do you know the signs of bloat?

Bloat, also known as gastric torsion, and also as gastric dilation volvulus (GDV) syndrome, is a life-threatening disorder that happens when a dog's stomach fills with gas and becomes twisted. Knowing the signs could save your dogs life.
