Wimbledon week 🎾 🍓
The pups have enjoyed lots of tennis ball games and strawberry slices this week to celebrate the tennis!
Strawberries are a super healthy treat for your dog?
🍓 They contain Vitamin C
🍓 Are packed full of antioxidants
🍓 Support skin and coat health with Omega 3
🍓 Contain fibre to aid healthy digestion
🍓 The help keep teeth white as they contain malic acid

Did someone say Pool Party?! 👙 😎 🍹
Hot weather, although lovely for us, can be really uncomfortable, and even fatal, for our dogs!
Your dogs happiness and well-being is our top priority which is why we introduce special measures during high temperatures.
This week the pups have enjoyed lots of water play, even more sniffaris (to encourage calm behaviour) and plenty of chill out time in the shade with cooling melon snacks and frozen treats courtesy of @bron_goffman 🙏 Thank you, the pups said they were Pawesome! 😋
In extreme heat, schedules are changed to get all pups out nice and early before the real sets in. Session times will also be slightly shorter and, as always, the van is kept cool with open windows and/or air con and fans.
To make Grandma Bron’s frozen treats:
🐾 Line a tray with baking parchment
🐾 Use a teaspoon to dollop some natural greek yoghurt rounds
🐾 Place sliced banana/blueberries/apple/carrot/chopped strawberries on top
🐾 Freeze until solid, then simply place in a tub or ziplock bag and repeat

Extra enrichment today…bottle fun!! The pups had great fun working out how to get the treats out of the holes I had made in the bottom of each bottle. This is a very simple game that really engages their brains and helps to develop, or maintain for the older pups, their eye-mouth co-ordination! 🧠 I had some snoring pups in the van today! 💤. #enrichmentfordogs #doggyplaytime #nurseryfordogs #cleverpups #funwithdogs
Relax…take it easy… we’ve got your pups covered!
Rain or shine we are out making sure your pups have the best time with their furry friends!

What is a Canine Company Group Play session like?
One of my lovely customers mentioned she calls it “nursery” for her dog and that got me thinking it’s not dissimilar!
Our Group Play sessions include:
🐕 Off lead fun with friends
🪵 Natural obstacles & climbing areas
💦 Paddling pools (warm weather)
🐶 Enrichment activities
🎾 Variety of toys
🦴 Treats (pupsicles in warm weather)
❤️ Lots of love and cuddles
If your pup is interested in making some new, likeminded, friends do get in touch to find out more

Tuna & Rice Cake 🐟
A super quick recipe that your pups are sure to love!
I’ll be using mine for fishy sniffaris this week 🐾
Recipe:
2 eggs
1/2 cup rice (optional, if not using add 2 extra tbs flour
Tin Tuna (ideally in oil, then you don’t need extra olive oil!)
2tbs olive oil (only if using drained tuna in spring water)
3 tbs flour (I’ve used buckwheat as it’s gentler on pups tummies)
Mix all ingredients to a paste
Spread into a Tupperware
Place lid on loosely and microwave for 4minutes
Leave to stand for 1 minute
Rip out and leave to cool
Cut into chunks
Keep in fridge for up to 5days or freeze and thaw as needed

Wow, what a week! ☀️🥵
Have a look what the pups got up to during our 1 week of summer! 😂
Including foggy early starts, pupsicles, splash play and more!
A huge thanks to all my pup parents for being flexible with timings this week to beat the heat, the safety of my pups is always my top priority. (And for the offers of cold drinks and ice lollies! Much appreciated!)
It’s been a blast! For now, have a lovely, sunny, weekend everyone! ☀️ Back to normality next week 🤞🏼

I can think of worse ways to spend a Monday afternoon! 🚜
Everyday I’m SNUFFLING 🐾
Sniffing is essential for a calm, content dog and that is why our group play sessions include a lot of “sniffy time”
Dogs learn about their surroundings through sniffing. It also stimulates their brains and is a naturally calming activity.
Did you know… sniffing releases dopamine, the “feel good” chemical boosting your dogs mood & motivation?!

Meadow Corner 🌸 🦋
The pups love to explore the longer grass! We leave this area ‘wild’ during the warmer months so they can experience different sounds, smells and textures.
We regularly find butterflies, grasshoppers and beetles, the pups find them very entertaining!
