Good afternoon, everyone.
With the warmer weather, the adders are starting to venture out. 🐍
Dan filmed this video just an hour ago in our shop car park. If you're visiting or walking in the area, please be mindful and stay vigilant. For safety, I strongly recommend keeping your dogs on a lead.
If you spot an adder, remember: stay calm and give it space. Adders don’t want to engage with us, and they only bite in self-defense. If you need to move one, gently stamp your feet to create vibrations, but it's best to leave it alone if possible and warn others nearby.
If your dog is bitten, you need to seek veterinary treatment quickly.
❌️Do not panic.
❌️Do not attempt to suck out the poison or tourniquet.
❌️Do not get your dog to run as this will increase their heart rate, causing the poison to spread.
✅️ Remain calm. If you can carry your dog, do so. If not, calmly get them to a vet as quickly as possible.
We know this may worry some of you, but we wanted you to be aware and prepared. Especially as we are all out and about with our dogs enjoying this lovely weather.
Feel free to get in touch with any questions!
☃️ Only 15 days left until Christmas. When did that happen 😄
(11 shopping days with us) 🛒
We still have lots of stock coming in so plenty of time to stock up.
⏰ We are open usual hours through Christmas eve. Closed throughout Christmas. Open as normal 2nd Jan.
See you soon 👋
Beautiful day at the shop 🌧️ 🙈
At least the plants are loving it. Also quite relaxing listening to the rain 😌
Good morning all.
Hope you had a lovely weekend ☀️
What did you get up to? We managed to enjoy a dry walk and even some sunshine 😊
Dizzy did great walking.. sounds silly but shes not keen. She's been diagnosed with luxating patella, likely due to her spinning so we need to get her walking in straight lines and build up her muscles. This was the only turn she did (she lost me) so we are really pleased 🐶
Any hydrotherapy recommendations gratefully received ❤️
I'll pop in an update on incoming stock later today.
Remember we are closed after today until 2nd January so make sure you pop in to top up 🎅
Not long to go now 🎅
COLLECTION CUT OFF
Please can you place any collection orders by midnight tonight. Friday and Saturday are going to be very busy so we want to get all online orders packed and ready for you as soon as possible.
We have more stock arriving today so should be plenty of options for you all.

Remember we are closed all next week so please make sure you get enough food to last.
Open today 10am - 4pm
Look forward to seeing you later ⛄
A little bit of catch on our morning walk
Not his best day of catch (probably my throw) but 10/10 for effort and his little happy stamp is the best 😂

⚠️ Loud shooting ⚠️
The shooting range is quite loud today.
If your dogs have been effected by the fireworks, I suggest leaving them at home.
Even if it doesn't normally bother them, we've found with ours they become extra sensitive. Bailey is doing well but I have his favorite treats 😊
We are at the end of Shaftesbury Road in the video, so it will be much louder at the shop.
Video highlights
🎇 Don't get caught out with fireworks 😬
🐶 Lots of treats back in stock
🎃 Halloween sale weekend! More on this soon.
Open today 10am to 5:30pm
A little heads up to let you know, I'm not around for consults for likely the next week.
Unfortunately Bailey is very poorly so Dan is holding down the fort. He may also need to duck out now and then.
This weekend is about keeping him stable until he can get a CT Monday.
Please keep Bailey in your thoughts and hope for good news ❤️
Thank you for your patience and understanding.
