Doesn’t Winnie look like a movie star .tails we love your dress 👗
What a wedding!!! Where do we start:
The venue I mean exquisitely breathtaking.
Beautiful bride, golden sunshine, fabulous guests!
Winnie was a gorgeous good girl she just loved her cuddles.
We enjoyed a walk around the beautiful gardens and followed the woodland trail to help get rid of those pre wedding nerves.
It was way too hard to choose 10 photos —— I want to show you waaaaay more!!!

Hello to all of my followers, old and new!
It’s been a good while since I’ve done one of these posts but with the recent big boost in new followers I thought I’d show you the face behind the dog leash & camera and give a short insight into me and my business 🙂

I’m Cheryl and I qualified as a registered veterinary in 2006! Yes, 18 years ago now 👵 meaning I’m very experienced at handling and caring for your beloved pet.
I still work at a busy veterinary hospital, I really love my job.

I got married 8 years ago and we really wanted Peggy, our rescue Jack Russell terrier to join us for a part of our day.
As everyone who would normally care for her was at the wedding it was tricky to organise…but against all odds she made it and she had the most amazing time.

This was my Eureka moment and I set up Wishbone weddings one year after in 2017 so that other couples didn’t face the same struggles as we did when it comes to having your dog as a guest at your wedding day.
My husband is a wedding photographer and I spent some time attending weddings with him to gain experience of wedding days, how things work behind the scenes, timings etc…not only that but I have picked up photography skills along the way. The photos that you see on my social media are the ones that I have taken from real weddings that I have chaperoned. They are a great piece of mind and keepsake for my couples to see the adventures their beloved fur baby has been on and the good care they’ve received.
I have now chaperoned hundreds of dogs to weddings and most wedding venues recommend my services and regurlarly share my posts or use them for their own social media marketing.

I love looking after your treasured babies. It’s so important that you can focus on enjoying your wedding day, safe in the knowledge that they are well cared for, in safe, experienced hands and are having a fun, carefree day.

What a percent day had by all at yesterdays wedding

Nicola and Adam had worked hard with Lolli taking her to the venue for practice runs and this helped 100%
I collected Lolli from and we enjoyed a beautiful walk before going to the venue to congratulate Mam & Dad.
Lolli was in her element getting lots of fuss from the wedding guests.
I could tell she was parried out by late afternoon so I took her back to the cottage where we watched the bake off and strictly come dancing to round off a perfect day.
We love you Lolli 🐾🤩
Congratulations to the newlyweds Nicola & Adam

Yesterday we visited and photographed the dogs that have been in the shelter for the longest time.
We made them fresh flower garlands to help show their beauty.
Archie has been in the shelter since August and hasn’t had any enquiries 💔
We loved how gangly he was and loved watching his playful zoomies
Could you be Archie’s forever home?
Thank you for helping us

How’s your day going?
I thought I’d share a cute snuggy photo of little Bertie.
Bertie was the Mother of the bride dog who’s daughter got married at .tower .
Bertie and I enjoyed a walk along the quayside and the wedding of course.
Once Bertie was tired we went and stayed at as they are super dog friendly.
I hope you get to be snug as Bertie soon

DOUGLAS
I made a new friend yesterday with a heart of gold he is such a happy boy.
We went for a walk around Northumberlandia the weather was on our side glorious golden sunshine and beautiful autumn leaves. I saw a couple trying to catch the leaves as they dropped it was cute.
Once back at the venue Douglas congratulated Mam & Dad and he loved the fuss from all of the guests.
Douglas loved a back scratch and would lean into it until he rolled on to his back.
He was an all round lovable, adorable, fun and good boy

What should I do on firework nights to help keep my dog calm?.
💥Take your dog for a walk well before fireworks are due to begin.
💥Keep doors, windows, cat and dog flaps closed.
💥Draw the curtains and play music with a repetitive beat to help mask the sounds.
💥If your pet prefers to go away and hide, let them. Leave them alone and don’t try to comfort them – this is their way of coping.
💥If your pet is used to seeking reassurance from you in stressful times, comfort them as you would normally.
This is a short-term solution to help your pet cope while they’re afraid. In the long term, it’s important to give your pet another way to cope – e.g. by providing a den – in case you aren’t there when they’re scared.
💥Stay calm yourself. Keep your tone, mood and behaviour as normal as possible. If you get very anxious or comfort your pet more than usual, this can make your pet more unsettled.
Never punish your pets. It’s not their fault they’re scared and it adds to their anxiety.
💥 Feed your dog a high carbohydrate meal an hour before you expect fireworks can help them feel sleepy. .
💥 Thunder jackets can help them feel secure and safe, it’s too late for this year but look into the sounds scary cds 💿 .
💥 Adaptil herbal tablets, plug in diffusers and adaptil collars may help.
💥 Pet remedy also a different brand diffusers, sprays and wipes. TIP- Wipes can be tied on to dog collars.
Zylkene are a natural calming, anti anxiety capsules that your pet takes orally.
💥 Sileo (My fave) Latin name for be silent it is a gel that is applied to your pets gums it has a medication that calms the dog down without fully sedating them.
Contact your vet if you feel your pet may benefit from something even stronger they may prescribe diazepam. Never let your vet prescribe Acp (Acepromazine) this is a tranquilliser so your pet will hear the fire works and be scared but won’t be able to move or hide this is very old school!!
Find out when your local firework display is on so you can be prepared for it!.

Arlo enjoyed seeing the guests and taking part in the photos.
It was time to head back to his overnight stay he’s was ready for a nap 💤

What a fabulous day we had celebrating yesterday
Roxy & Max were so well behaved
Max who is recovering from a broken leg needed more of a tailored programme.
Roxy has such beautiful eyes and her thick coat was a like confetti it would occasionally blow in the wind 🙊
This gorgeous couple recently had a baby and I don’t think there was a dry eye in the ceremony room when he came in and was held at the front by his dad 🥹
Congratulations guys
