We specialise in healthy, natural food and treats for ALL your pets, as well as top quality training aids, toys, beds, leads, collars and accessories. We are

With direct access to pet nutritionists and trainers, we strive to keep informed of the latest advice in pet nutrition, health and well-being so we can pass this on to our customers. We won't sell you anything we feel is unsafe or inappropriate for your particular pet. Above all, we offer customer service second to none.

As today is World Spay Day, a reminder that current WSAVA (World Small Animal Veterinary Association) guidelines are discouraging routine-neutering and favouring a case-by-case basis. It is also vital that awareness is raised of the alternative sterilisation procedures that spare s*x hormones (vasectomy and hysterectomy).

Well, well..

Well, well..

Well hello hello...in an interesting turn of events, Hills Pet Nutrition has acquired Prime 100, an Australian raw food company.

They clearly cannot spell HYPOCRITE!
While I am not against feeding kibble, this is shocking news.

After decades of being vehemently and openly against raw pet food and spreading misinformation about raw feeding, it has suddenly become ok to feed. Get ready to now learn that raw pet food is safe to feed, that there is no risk of parasites or your pet becoming ill from bacteria in the food. I feel as though they think us, as pet parents, to be gulliable enough to believe this new rhetoric. What are your thoughts, let me know in the comments.

This acquisition shouldn't dispel any doubts or confidence you may have had about this brand. They go with the wind, the wind of market share and profit rather than pet health and wellness. The fresh food industry is fast becoming a economical player in the industry, which Hills Pet Nutrition has recognised, so why not take on a piece of this.

It may take a bit longer, and mostly overseas than here but more vets will now strart promoting raw feeding where previously they were against it. I can't blame them as they will be trained by Hills to start informing clients about the wonders of raw foods.
Next time your vet chastises you about feeding or wanting to feed raw, let them know that Hills now thinks otherwise.

How do you feel about this?

**NEW**

The Barking Lot is excited to announce the arrival of our new Wild Cold Pressed dog food, the #1 rated dry dog food on All About Dog Food !!🎉🏆

Why is Wild different?

This is an 80/20 food, based on the raw formula of 80% meat and 20% veggies & superfoods. And that's 80% *after* dehydration, not before-many dry foods state their meat as fresh percentages that are not accurate once the recipe is cooked.
This makes Wild the food with the highest % of meat of all the dry food brands we sell! It makes a great addition to raw feeding, or a convenient alternative for holidays.

🚨 BREAKING NEWS: GREYHOUND RACING TO BE BANNED IN WALES 🚨

Together with our coalition partners, we are today celebrating a major victory for animal welfare in Wales, as the Welsh Government announces a ban on greyhound racing.

Earlier this afternoon, the Deputy First Minister and Cabinet Secretary for Climate Change and Rural Affairs Huw Irranca-Davies MS/AS announced that greyhound racing would be banned in Wales, fully protecting greyhounds from the risk of injury and death as result of their participation in commercial racing.

Our founder and Chief Executive Officer, Vanessa Waddon, reflects on the journey to this historic decision.

“Our Amazing Greys partnership project at Valley Greyhound Stadium highlighted systemic welfare issues with greyhound racing in Wales. In 2021 when the track announced its intention to become a licensed Greyhound Board of Great Britain track greatly intensifying the volume of racing, we knew we had to act and we launched our Senedd petition to ban greyhound racing in Wales.

Over 35,000 dog lovers signed the petition, and as it progressed through the Petitions Committee we were joined by Greyhound Rescue Wales, Blue Cross UK, Dogs Trust and RSPCA (England & Wales) to form the Cut the Chase coalition, giving the campaign a strong and united voice.

In December 2022, the Petitions Committee published their report, with the majority of the Committee supporting a ban. With strong cross-party support, the petition was debated in the Senedd in March 2023, and it was announced that views on greyhound racing would be included in a wider consultation on the licensing of animal activities. The consultation launched in December 2023, and in December 2024 Welsh Government published their response, stating that a decision on greyhound racing would be made in Spring 2025.

Earlier this afternoon, the Deputy First Minister and Cabinet Secretary for Climate Change and Rural Affairs announced that greyhound racing would be banned in Wales, bringing an end to the entirely preventable injuries and deaths of the dogs involved in greyhound racing.

We owe a huge debt of gratitude to the public for supporting the campaign, and also to the Petitions Committee, chaired by Jack Sargeant MS at the time. We also want to say thank you to the stalwarts of the campaign, Jane Dodds AS/MS, Luke Fletcher AS/MS, Carolyn Thomas MS and Dr Altaf Hussain MS who all played a significant role in rallying strong and unwavering cross-party support for the ban.

As we celebrate our 20th anniversary year, there is no better anniversary present than this historic decision which we hope will lead the way in ending greyhound racing in the rest of the U.K. and Ireland.

The Cut the Chase coalition’s priority has always been the welfare of the dogs involved in greyhound racing, and we remain committed to ensuring that this is not negatively impacted by the ban.

The coalition has sent an open letter to both Valley Greyhound Stadium and the Greyhound Board of Great Britain offering our support with displaced greyhounds needing rehoming both during the transitional period, and after racing ceases at the stadium.”
