🐶Polite reminder🐶
Hey all, I hate talking about the money side of things but it needs to be discussed.
The majority of my clients are great and get it to me before the week or day is out! It’s just a gentle reminder that this is my business and I need to pay bills.

💰Payment 💰
• When I am house sitting the 20% deposit will be taken once the first meet is done and we have agreed on dates.
• The remainder is needed when you return home.
• If I am booked in to walk. Payment is needed on the same day. If I’m booked in for anymore than 1 day then payment is needed on the last day I walk.
• No further appointments will be made until the last payment is made.

🏠Home stays 🏠
• The first meet up is free of charge to make sure me and your dog get along. I cannot look after any dog I have not met as it is a danger to me and your dog.
• When booking a home stay, 20% of the overall cost will be taken once the meet up has taken place unless we have discussed otherwise. The 20% deposit is non refundable.
• Once the agreed dates have been set and the deposit has been taken you will have 1 opportunity to rearrange.

🐾Walking 🐾
• When cancelling a one off walk I require 24 hours notice.
• If you are cancelling anything more than 2 days then I require a weeks notice. This is to insure that I am able to fill your slot up so I don’t miss out.
• Before walking any dog for the first time I will need to meet the dog beforehand.

WE'RE SO SORRY JAY

You may remember recently we shared the devastating news that Merlin, one of ten English Bulldogs who were seized by a Local Authority on welfare grounds, had to be put to sleep due to severe conformation issues. He was just 9 months old.

We can't believe we are writing this again. Last week, Jay, another one of the Bulldog litter went in for X-rays. Whilst he was under the vet found he had a host of very serious problems including no hip joint on the one side, the hip out of the socket on the other side, elbow dysplasia which had already led to arthritic changes, and awful issues with his spine. The vet explained this would cause him to suffer from ongoing pain that would be very difficult to manage. Once again we had to make the heart-breaking decision not to wake him up.

Another young life lost to torture breeding. Another foster home with a broken heart. None of us at Hope Rescue went in to animal welfare to euthanise puppies. But here we are, and it keeps happening again and again thanks to those who seek to put profit over welfare, breeding for .

We need improved breeding laws. We need to introduce fitness to breed assessments. We need everyone who breeds to be licensed and traceable no matter how many litters they breed. We need to regulate canine fertility clinics. But most of all we need to stop buying these dogs that are so badly deformed they cannot live a normal life, if any life at all. Be part of the change, not the problem.

Rest easy Jay, and please join us in sending our heartfelt condolences to his wonderful foster family 💔

CANCELLATION POLICY

Hi everyone! The cancellation policy will start as of today 10/08/2022 all appointments booked previous to this date will not be affected

Dog Walking/ Day Care

We will now be introducing a 24 hour cancellation policy
Obviously things happen that can’t be helped but this is our job now and we need to take measures to make sure we aren’t making a loss!
We are now into summer and the weather can’t be helped so if it is too hot on the day the 24 hour policy won’t be necessary. We will get in touch with you if we think it is too hot to take your furry friends out 🤍

Home Boarding

We will now be introducing a 50% deposit, the deposit will be taken off the overall cost.
The deposit will be taken once we have met up and agreed that both parties are happy to continue.
The deposit is non refundable but given a weeks notice we are happy to swap any dates around and the deposit will stay in place!
Again we are aware that things happen that cannot guarantee this but this is our jobs and we need to take precautions

Hope you all understand and we look forward to seeing your furry friends soon!🤍

💚 Rocky 💚

How handsome is this boy!?

I honestly felt so honoured to walk Rocky whilst his mum and dad went away, we made sure we had early and very late walks to keep out of the heat 🌞

Such an intelligent boy with the best greetings and head tilts 💚 🐾🐶

18/07/2022

Some fab ideas on here for your furbabies 🥰

It's safe to give frozen things to your animals as long as they are well and healthy

Beautiful Winnie came for a day visit today instead of our usual walks as it's way too hot 🐶🐾😰

11/07/2022

This is heartbreaking poor pups 😭

Dear Mum and Dad,

Let me stay home. It's too hot for me to walk and run next to you. But because I am a loyal dog, I often go beyond my limits. So I walk and run beside you, standing still if I have to.
And feel my paws burn.
I'm looking at you for a moment, but you do not understand. Because in a little over 5 minutes we're at the cool puddle, right? But those little 5 minutes
can be fatal to me. Because I sweat through my paws, and in this heat I just cannot get rid of the sweat. My whole body is boiling, but I keep going
And then I end up on the tarmac. In the heat and in the sun. With my tongue out of my mouth and my eyes flashing in the sun. My paws are burning, my
tongue is dry and my head is pounding in the heat that my body cannot get rid of…

Instead, let me stay at home where I can enjoy the sun, with a large bowl of cool water, somewhere in the shade. And best of all like in a cool area with grass.
Love Your dog.x

If you can't walk barefoot then why expect your dog to do it?

💔

Be wise, be thoughtful and be kind.

Help to save lives. 🐾

We loved having another cockapoo on our walks, even though I kept thinking she was Duke 😂

She's such a good girl we can't wait for our next walk 💗
