Anyone got any ideas on how we communicate our opening hours to our furry friends? Or should we just enable biometric entry for paws? We hate to see them so disappointed! #howtocommunicatewithdogs #dogcustomers #bostonterriers @becki1son 🥰
Arlo wondering how to make it any clearer! Get me the treat now 😂😳😍 #jug #jackrussellpug #petshopdog (ps if you drop a couple just leave them as they soon get cleared up!!)
Earlier this week good boy Jack chose his treat toy from the shop! He loved it and carried it all the way home! They are almost like mini kettle bells - great for throwing and retrieving - although Jack is not so keen on giving it back! Happy Sunday all! #villagepets #pettoys
When your owner is probably better at agility than you! Brilliant performance by Lewis and Max! #dogagility #agility #villagepets
We will be hosting a dog show at the village event this weekend with @theairhostesstollerton (details to follow) If you need to get your dog competition ready here are a few things that could help! From fresh breath mints, to bow ties, to new collars and leads! Oh and also sausage treats so you can practise for the best sausage catcher 🌭❤️🐾 #tollertonvillagevent #villagepetshop #dogshow
If you and your dog did this today don’t worry it’s Monday tomorrow and we are back open!! 🤣❤️🐾❤️ #villagepetshop #opentomorrow

100% sure Cookie loves the peanut butter machine! 🤣 #cavapoo #peanutbutterlover @joanne.wass ❤️
Peanut Butter machine has been working hard! Seems dogs either LOVE it or HATE it! Have your dogs tried it yet? #peanutbutter #digtreats
Big News!! We now have a peanut butter machine in the shop! Made with just peanuts so no palm oil! It comes with a choice of toppings - we currently have freeze dried strawberries, heart biscuits, dried banana and wild boor! A real treat for birthdays, weekends and hump days! (Any day basically!) @withlovefrompennylane listened to every word and eventually picked the wild boor! Come in and try it for yourself this weekend ❤️🥜❤️
Watching Crufts has given us flashbacks to our very own dog show at the @theairhostesstollerton last August. We can not wait to do it all again at the village event this year! @dachshundchipolata time for a re match? #crufts2024 #dogshow #dachshundsofinstagram #agilitytraining
At keyworth market ready for you to pick up your dogs treats! 🦴 ❤️
Blakey we are so sorry we were shut today - we hope to be back open on Sundays in March - but in the mean time pop in and see Jo in the week and she will give you a free treat for your inconvenience 🐾❤️🐾 #villagepets #tollertonpetshop
One of chicken customers came to visit! Shut the shop down for her to browse for five mins! #happydays #chickenpets #tollertonpets
As seen on @withlovefrompennylane on our stories these rechargeable, light up collars are brilliant for dark nights and morning. They come in a range of colours and have three settings - two flashing and one solid light. As the village Christmas lights are now coming down maybe our dogs can now light up the village instead! ❤️ available in a range of colours in our shop - just £5.95 ⭐️
Am thinking if dogs could swear…….👀 Come on Jo it must be the 2nd by now? @dachshundchipolata and friends need their treat fixes! #daschund #villagepets #ifdogscouldtalk
Hello from Jo! Talking through our advent calendar offers and our new Christmas cat gifts! All advent calendar offers available in the shop and online www.village-pets.co.uk 🎄❤️🎄
OFFER - buy a bag of hedgehog dry food and get a tin of wet food half price. This is our last minute call to feed our local hedgehogs - as they prepare to go into hibernation they need as much goodness as possible which is not always possible to find in the garden at this time of year. This hedgehog food is designed to give them the nutrients and fats they need to keep them going through the winter ❄️ #hedgehogs
Alfie gave a little dance of approval for our new vegan treats - roastie bites! #dogtreats #vegantreats #nottinghamdogs
This heatwave has caught us off guard!
We have moved our cooling products to the back room and were just starting to look at coats!
Here are a few tips on how to keep your pets cool:
Avoid walking dogs in mid day heat - advice on temperatures in stories
Keep an eye out for any signs of heat stroke (see stories for symptoms)
Make sure your pets have plenty of shade and access to drinking water, that is refreshed throughout the day. (even better to provide them with different water bowls throughout the house)
For outdoor pets such as rabbits and chickens provide them with water very close to where they can rest in the shade so they don’t have to go in the heat for water.
