Being active with your dog
We love to see dogs and their owners having fun together, and what
better time to pick up a new sport or activity? Whether you choose
agility, scentwork, canicross, hoopers or one of the many other
activities available, the benefits can include:
Physical exercise - for you and your pet
Mental stimulation that challenges your dog’s brain and fulfils
their natural instincts
Strengthening your bond and trust, by sharing experiences and
achieving new things together
Improving your relationship at home - a tired and fulfilled dog is
a well behaved dog
Let us know in the comments below what your dog will be getting
up to this year ⬇️

Animal Safety and Restraint

Our first priority when your pets visit us is their safety at
all times.
Please ensure that cats are restrained in baskets or
other suitable carriers, and dogs are kept under control
and on a lead at all times in the car park and waiting
room.
If you need any assistance to meet these requirements,
please let us know so that we may help.

Dog snow and ice advice

As we move into the colder months of January and February, the chance of snow and ice increases and therefore you may find yourself heading out on a frosty dog walk more often than not!
Check out our top tips below on keeping your dog safe when out and about in snow and ice.
Remember, if the weather is really bad and you don’t think it is safe to head out, then there is no harm in skipping the odd dog walk and playing games indoors with your canine buddy.

You may receive an email from Petchip.network advising that your pet’s microchip registration has expired and you need to pay for it to be updated – PLEASE IGNORE. THIS IS A SCAM. The email comes with a link taking you to a page showing your pet’s name, microchip number, your contact phone number and looks very convincing. PLEASE IGNORE.

There is a list of approved databases on gov.uk: Get your dog or cat microchipped - GOV.UK

Typically you would only pay a fee or first registering your pet or if you contact the company to update your details .

It is important to keep your pet’s microchip contact details up-to-date including if you move address or change phone number/ email address. Please contact your microchip provider direct to update your details.
