There are a few different types of Cockapoo as they can be a first cross (with one spaniel and one poodle parent), can be bred back to one of the original breeds, or be two Cockapoos bred together — so there are varieties in size, shape, coat types, and temperaments. What a beauty our Brian is.

Christmas Foods to Keep Away from Your Dog

The festive season is here, but let's not forget that some Christmas treats can be harmful to our furry friends. Here’s a list of foods you should be extra cautious about this holiday season:

1️⃣
Blue Cheese – Can lead to muscle tremors and seizures due to roquefortine C produced by the fungus in blue cheeses.

2️⃣
Alcohol – Dogs are more sensitive than humans, and even a small amount can lead to intoxication, low blood sugar, seizures, and even coma.

3️⃣
Macadamia nuts – These can cause weakness, vomiting, tremors, and even increased body temperature in dogs.

4️⃣
Sage & onion stuffing – Onions can damage a dog's red blood cells and cause life-threatening anemia.

5️⃣
Mince pies, Christmas cake, pudding & chocolate-covered raisins – These contain raisins, currants, and sultanas, which are toxic to dogs. If ingested, effects can take days to show, so contact your vet right away!

6️⃣
Chocolate – Dangerous to dogs due to theobromine, which can be found in advent calendars, chocolate coins, or wrapped gifts under the tree.

7️⃣
Bones – Never give your dog cooked bones. They can splinter and cause serious injuries to the stomach or intestines.

8️⃣
Mouldy food – Can contain toxins that could make your dog seriously ill.

If you think your dog has eaten any of these, contact your vet immediately. They may need to know how much was consumed, when, and your dog’s breed, weight, and age. It's always best to prevent accidents by keeping these dangerous foods out of reach!

Wishing you and your pets a safe and wonderful Christmas!

Ever felt like you’re walking on a canvas painted by Mother Nature herself? That's exactly how I feel every time I walk out in our beautiful country side with one my of my four-legged friends.

The fresh cool air and open spaces turn a simple dog walk into a mini adventure. There's something magical about watching the world through the eyes of a dog; everything seems a little more vibrant and alive. Each wag of the tail a sniff of the grass or a playful bark adds a rhythm to our steps, making every walk unique.

My furry companions and I develope a special friendship, one that’s strengthened with each shared adventure. It's like having a silent conversation—understanding each other without words. It’s these moments that make dog walking more than just a routine; it’s a joyful time.

Imagine the sun shining across the hills, casting a golden glow over the autumn leaves and landscape, and that's the kind of view that we get to enjoy at the moment. here are a few pictures of my recent outins with Dobby. I'm still taking on a few more dogs to accompany me on an adventure. Contact me for more information.

Out walking with Bruno yesterday. We have so many beautiful places to walk our dogs right on our doorstep. The air was crisp and the sun shining bright, who could wish for more? There is a theme developing in my recent posts, Emley moor mast gets a picture mention, you can see it from almost anywhere you go (around here that is). What a structure, it is the 7th tallest free standing tower in the European Union and the 25th tallest tower in the world.

Out on the Moor this morning with Gypsy the mighty St Bernard. She is so gentle and sweet for her massive size. A pleasure to walk.

Out with Flo on a beautiful winters morning. I just wish I had taken some skis because she was that excited to see what was up ahead she didn’t want to wait for me to catch up. I was skating along on my boot soles behind her. 🤣🤣🤣

Hi guys this is Doby a male Jug. A handsome little fella too. I walked him a couple of times last week. For his size he is extremely strong,nevermind a team of huskies to pull you along. You only need 6 little jugs. It was a treat to go walking with him.

Hello doggy buddies. What a beautiful day for walking with one of your furry friends. Today I walked Chester a cockapoo with a beautiful temperament. I am blessed to be living in the countryside, miles of walks and open fields.

On the journey Chester found what you would think was a Rolex. He proudly carried it for about 45 minutes. If you would like your pooch taking on a solo walk please drop me a message.
Have a good evening.
