I was awake unusually early this morning for an early arrival.. I got to see the beautiful pre sunrise skyline. It’s made me think how many more of these I will be privileged to see. 🤷‍♂️

Just a reminder as the changes draw closer.

CHANGES FOR 2025
Hi All,
Firstly, thank you all for your support and custom over the past years, it’s very much appreciated, and I have enjoyed looking after your dogs.
Unfortunately, I have had to make some changes for 2025 moving forward, for various reason, I cannot continue trading in the same, relentless manner, that I have been doing for the past 8+ years. 360 days a year for 16-18 hours a day, has taken its toll on me, my family, friends, and neighbours, in many ways, and can no longer continue.
I am taking a career “semi-retirement” break to give me time to pursue other opportunities, and, to give me time to keep up with my Dog Food business, which is growing well, but requires a lot of work and time. I am planning a big expansion and hope for growth in sales, which will require me to be more flexible in my schedule at times.
Regular Daycare services will be stopping as of 01/01/25 (or earlier if you get alternative cover sorted before that date)
As its only “semi-retirement”, I will endeavour to continue to offer boarding services on the dates shown on the calendar below, and may be able to accommodate your boarding requirements, outside of these unbanked dates, but I can no longer guarantee that I will be home and available, everyday, all year round. I do want to be free to have a few days away from home, if I can.
I have had to implement the first rate increase since I started, (despite all costs in life rising continuously recently), I have kept mine to a minimum of £5 extra per dog per night, which is still well under what some places charge, overing the same service.
I completely understand that this not the news you wanted to hear at this time, but it’s the only way I can see, to continue offering any sort of holiday cover for your dogs while you can’t care for them at home.
I apologise in advance for any inconvenience to you and your family these decisions (I have had to make), will impact your life, and hope that I can continue to help whenever I can,
Kind Regards
Mark, Mac, Meg, Mia & Moe

I have known this for 10+ years now, having raised all my own dogs and pups on it, and endorsed several litters of pups, I can honestly say, that’s why I’m still the biggest supporter of the brand in Uk, No other Dog food available puts a shine on a Black Labrador like Chapel Farm Performance 24+. Good coat = happy and healthy dog! This picture shows what results can be expected, even from an early stage. Pup has been on Performance 24+ for one month at this stage.

Recient photos from a new customer who changed to Chapel Farm Performance 24+. She had been using a rival ‘working dog food’ prior to this, clearly the dog was not thriving on it. The difference is clear to see, and within a few weeks, she noticed a difference, these pictures are taken two months apart. I think the pictures speak for themselves. You shouldn’t have to add, Salmon oil, and various additional additives, just opt for the only quantity feed that has it all combined from the start. Contact me if you want to discuss your own dogs skin issues.. hopefully we can help.

🚨🚨 New Product Alert 🚨🚨 Salmon has landed! 🎣
New Invest ‘N’ Digest Salmon.

Due to lots of customers asking for a fish based variety, Chapel Farm has worked hard to develop this fantastic new flavour. Packed with the ingredients to promote healthy skin and coat.

I have had a few customers trial it on dogs with sensitive skin, and over the past month, when allergies cases have been soaring, they are very pleased to see that it has helped with ‘eating of the paws’ and scratching due to itchy skin.

I am the first stockist in the UK to have the new variety delivered, and it’s available now.

I have some samples in stock, get in touch if you’d like to try some. 🐕🦮🐩🐕‍🦺🐾🐶🎣🐟🐠
