I'm back! Had a wonderful time volenteering in South Africa and visiting sanctuaries in Zimbabwe and Zambia

06/11/2024

Exciting News! As many of you know, I try to volunteer abroad a few times each year, supporting different animal charities and causes. This time, I'm off to Africa to contribute to some amazing projects in South Africa and Zimbabwe! I’ll be back at the beginning of December, but during my time there, I may have limited access to power and internet, so my response times might be a bit slower than usual.

My partner, Alex, is at home taking great care of our dogs, sheep, and horses. Thank you for your understanding and support—I look forward to sharing my experiences with you when I return! 🐾

Here are 5 tips to help keep your dog safe with Halloween just around the corner:

🎃 Keep Chocolate and sweets out of reach: Chocolate, xylitol (found in sugar-free sweets), and other sweets can be toxic to dogs. Store it in secure, dog-proof containers and in high cupboards out of reach.

👻 Supervise Costumes: If your dog is wearing a costume, make sure it's comfortable, not restrictive, and doesn't have small parts they could chew or swallow.

🎃 Avoid Unsafe Decorations: Keep decorations like candles, string lights, and small objects out of your dog’s reach, as they can pose choking, electrocution, or fire hazards.

👻 Limit Access to Trick-or-Treaters: Constant doorbell ringing and strangers in costumes can stress dogs. Keep them in a quiet, secure room or use a baby gate/in a crate to avoid them dashing out the door or being spooked. Consider walking before dark where possible.

🎃 Watch for Fearful Reactions: Some dogs get scared of costumes, loud noises, or flashing lights. Monitor your dog’s behavior and provide a safe space if they seem anxious.

Committed to a greener future 🌱🐕

We're not just passionate about training, we're also dedicated to protecting the planet where possible. Here's how we're trying to making a difference with our eco-friendly practices:

🌲Paperless Business: We handle bookings and communication digitally to save trees

☀️ Powered by the Sun: Our facilities are run on solar energy, reducing our reliance on fossil fuels and lowering our carbon footprint

🌍 Eco-Conscious Products: We only use fully compostable p**p bags and recommend natural, biodegradable products where we can

💧Water Conservation: Our cleaning practices use eco-friendly, low-water methods and rainwater collection systems to use for cleaning and watering outdoor areas, helping to conserve one of our most precious resources.

🌻Wildlife-Friendly Design: The garden is designed to be a haven for local birds, pollinators and butterflies, enriching the environment and creating a peaceful space for dogs to explore.

Got any more suggestions of things we could do to be more eco friendly? We'd love to hear!

Finally!

Watch the latest from ITV News - A new law has come into force increasing the maximum sentence for stealing a pet to five years, and legally recognising pets as more than just stolen property.
