Good morning all!
We will be taking a break from posting on social media for the next couple weeks or so.

It’s been over a year since I last did this, but I very much feel that it’s important to do every now and then!

I am very grateful to be busy with work and new projects so I will be taking this time to put all of my energy into my clients and working ON the business, without the added pressure that sometimes comes from creating extra content for social media.

All of my clients can still contact me in all of the usual ways, we will still be checking messages on every platform! 😁

Thank you to everybody who supports us across Instagram and Facebook - we appreciate every single one of you!!

See you all soon!
Nikki 🐾

Myth Busted: “Raw dog food is full of harmful bacteria.”

Not true! 🚫

When Bella + Duke flash-freeze their ingredients at the source and keep them at –18°C or colder through production and delivery, it:
❌ Stops bacteria from multiplying - bacteria need warmer temperatures to grow, so freezing keeps the food safe.
🥶 Locks in nutrients & freshness, so nothing has time to spoil or degrade.
🧼 Maintains strict hygiene standards, from farm to bowl, the cold chain never breaks.

Bella + Duke use these strict safety standards to keep your dog’s meals safe and packed with nutrients. So your pup gets safe, natural meals with all the benefits of raw feeding, and none of the risks people worry about 💛

People love to give unsolicited advice about dogs. They’ve “had dogs all of their life”, so they must know best 🙄

You’ve probably heard things like:
❌ “Just leave them home alone to cry it out, they’ll get used to it.”
❌ “They’re just a dog.”

And honestly? It can be really hard to hear comments like this, especially when you’re doing your best to meet your dog’s needs.
But here’s the truth: your dog’s well-being matters.

Caring about their emotional health doesn’t make you overprotective, soft or silly, it makes you a responsible, compassionate guardian.. our dogs need more of this, especially in this day and age 💛

Trust your instincts. You know your dog best.

Puppy life is HARD WORK. Yes it’s one of the most joyful experiences, but it’s also tiring, stressful and extremely emotional!

Puppies are a handful, but they aren’t being difficult, they’re dysregulated.

They need support and guidance, and we’re to help you with that 🐶

NEW SERVICE: Affordable training support that fits into busy lives 💬✨

Not every dog needs weekly sessions.
Not every guardian wants a full-on training plan.
But I think everyone deserves support 💛

That’s why I’ve created a new, accessible coaching option, designed for those of you who need real help (not the confusion and contradiction that comes with Googling it), without the high cost or stress of in-person training.

✅ 45-min Zoom consult
✅ 2x 30-min follow-up calls
✅ Full WhatsApp support (Mon - Fri)
✅ Personalised advice, guidance, and real-time feedback

📲 All for just £179 for 6 weeks of support. Payment packages are available upon request. Our goal is that everybody has access to professional support, regardless of budgets, so we can work together to come up with something that suits you!

Good evening!

Nikki will be out of office until Wednesday 12th March ✨ I will still be responding to queries, I do however have limited access to emails and so my response may take longer than usual.

Abigail is still working in the South as usual 🐕

Hope you all are having a great weekend and I will catch up with you all soon 💛

(If you are one of our SA clients, I will still be setting your training plans as usual unless we have discussed otherwise).

You dog’s wellbeing is a top priority, and nobody should make you feel otherwise 🐕

You know the type, the ones who:

- Tell you to let your reactive dog off the lead to sort it out themselves, ‘that’s all they need’.

- Provide unsolicited advice about what you should be doing with your dog.

- Tell you that your reactive dog should be put down.

- Tell you you’re spoiling your dog by giving them too many treats.

- Shout to you that ‘he’s friendly’ and cannot understand why you’re avoiding them.

- The ‘trainer’ that tells you to jerk the lead to train loose lead walking.

- The ones who say ‘it’s just a dog, leave them home alone, they’ll be fine’ when your dog struggles with SA.

Never let anybody make you feel bad for putting your dog’s needs first! 🐾

What would you add to the list? ⬇️

Having a reactive dog can be extremely overwhelming and stressful. Navigating walks becomes a military operation that requires extreme vigilance, skill and sometimes sheer luck! 🍀

There’s a lot of information out there to help reactive dog guardians with what to do to help their dogs, and what not to do.

But there isn’t much information for other dog guardians on how they can also help.

People can be quick to judge and throw shame at the other side, but it’s much more effective to try and help educate everybody instead 🐕

There are many things us non-reactive dog guardians can do to help out reactive dog guardians in making their walks less stressful, for themselves and their dogs 🫶🏼
