Hi there! I’m looking to refresh my vest styles after trying them all. Just a heads up, I’ll default to the standard vest shape unless you specify otherwise. Please let me know your preferred shape before ordering 💖.

Daphne had her first day at work with her uniform and everyone loved her new look! Shes taking her receptionist duties very seriously 💖

Remember we do not just make working dog gear but also fun pieces like this and gear for dogs who need a little extra space🐾

Bailey’s gear still looking good as new after 2 months of constant use. All of our gear is made to last a long time even with daily use.
Do not be afraid to get your gear dirty as its easy to clean and hard to stain (Malinois tested and approved)

My assistance dog Fern lies flat on the floor and constantly cakes her gear in muck but it always comes out with luke warm water and dog shampoo.

Just sent out another order!
Lately, things have been a bit quiet, so if you could kindly share my posts to help me promote my business, I would greatly appreciate it. My business has evolved from being just a hobby, and now I’m using the earnings to save up for a new wheelchair since mine is on its last legs, unfortunately. Thank you so much for all the support you’ve shown for my business venture, and please take care and stay safe in this hot weather. Remember to put booties on your furry friends’ paws and try to take walks early in the morning or in the evening when it’s cooler. Stay cool!

Description: A pink best with 4 paws on the centre panel with the words “ask to pet” in white at the bottom. The side panels state in white “Nervous dog in training”

We are excited to share that we have received nothing but positive feedback about our mesh vests! This is great news as it means we can now include them in our product line. In response to one client’s suggestion, we will be upgrading the mesh type to one with more holes and a thinner fabric, which will further enhance the item.

We will offer a variety of colors for the meshing, and for just an additional £3, you can have your vest transformed into a mesh backed or mesh panel vest. We explored options to provide the mesh at no extra cost, but unfortunately, the fabric is more expensive than our standard cotton backing, making it unavoidable. However, we have made every effort to keep costs as low as possible.

If you’re interested in getting a mesh panel vest to help your pup stay cool in the heat, please send us a message. 💖

We have a very sad announcement to make. Thanks to the go fund me Snowie got seen by a vet but has sadly passed away. Her fall resulted in internal bleeding which is very rare to happen. The rest of the money raised for the raffle will go towards Snowies cremation costs.
Her owners are understandably distraught and we will continue the fund raiser to ensure Snowie gets the send off she deserves.

Rest in peace Snowie 🌷

Hey everyone! I mentioned I was taking a break, but one of the dogs from our local walking group had an accident. Her owners, who are both disabled, are struggling to cover the vet bills. I want to help out, so I thought about organizing a raffle for some of my smaller items to raise funds for her treatment.

Snowie is like the nanny of our group, and she loves exploring with the young dogs. It’s heartbreaking for her owners to see her not wanting to walk or eat.

At Mal’s Pals, my main goal is to assist as many people as possible while enjoying what I do. I wouldn’t feel right if I didn’t lend a hand.

I’ll share the GoFundMe link below, so if you can contribute, please do. I’ll also set up a raffle to raise extra funds for Snowie.

Any support would be greatly appreciated, so please share the raffle post far and wide. Thank you! 💖
