A few more delights...😊

We were delighted to welcome Jamie, Megan, Rocco and Draco to dogs' spota yesterday. We don't normally post people pictures, but (with their permission) this one was too gorgeous not to! What a lovely family!!
Thanks to Megan and Jamie for taking on board all my advice with having two dogs experiencing dogs' spota together, the boys played and shared brilliantly. What a delight!

We didn't see as many fosterers over February as we would have hoped☹️, but we did see some GORGEOUS dogs!🥰
Here's some of their pics!
April offer coming soon!!...

This month we support the amazing people that are _fosterers_ and the dogs in their care, through *"dogs' spota Fosterer's February"*🤩

People who foster for rescues do a superb job helping dogs to transition from a previous environment to hopefully a new forever home. We applaud you!👏

We are offering 3 *FREE* dogs' spota sessions for the 3 remaining Fridays of February- 3 per Friday, that's 9 free sessions for dogs that might love an hour of play, fun and enrichment with their temporary care giver. All that you fosterers have to do is WhatsApp/email/PM us which Friday session (am or pm and date) you would like to enter the draw for along with the name of the rescue you are fostering for and you're in with a chance to win!

Morning session times vary a little (2 available), evening sessions 6.30pm. You can enter for as many days/sessions as you like, entries must be received before 5pm on the Wednesday beforehand. Successful entries will be notified that evening.

Hold on! There's more!!...If Friday's don't suit, we are offering a mega discount for fostered dogs for this month- a private dogs spota session for just €20! That's €15 off!! Subject to availability, and you will be asked for proof of what rescue you are fostering for!

In addition!...To help out rescue charities and their selfless work we will be donating €15 of every €50 we receive this month, that's 30%...so if you are thinking of visiting us why not do it soon and support local rescues at the same time! All other dogs are still VERY welcome!🥰 🐕

Finally... to all of you that call yourselves "failed fosterer's", sorry this offer does NOT include you! You have now "adopted" that delightful dog who touched your heart- your turn will come in "Adopters April"!😁

And rightly so there is a theme of LOVE at dogs' spota this month! We're sharing it with you all!
❤️ ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Get in touch to book your session or enter the draw!😉

This is Stripes, our logo dog and inspiration for the dogs' spota name. He is demonstrating the use of three of the enrichment toys that we HAD in one of the areas (Scrumpy's Sniffy Spot).

If your dog didn't get to try them yet- it's too late (for now)!! There's new enrichments and brain stimulators of a Christmas theme in their place! 🎁

Our Christmas seasonal changes will be in place for December and January. Places are limited now for pre-Christmas, but why not book in for a January doggie treat!?🎄🍪

Stripes is 16 years old so there is absolutely no limit on the enjoyment for all dogs!!😉🐶

dogs' spota welcomes all pet dogs and their owners, however if you have a dog that finds being around other dogs challenging then this is the spot for you 😎 We have 6 areas for you and your dog to work through, each area giving an enriching experience to your dog.
Stripes' Play Spot - The spot for you and your dog to play together to help your dog relax and have some fun in a new environment.
Scrumpy's Sniffy Spot - The area dedicated to sniffing, licking, pawing and clawing to help get that brain engaged 🐶
The Duke's Garden and Scouts Seasonal Spot - Our outdoor spot for all the sniffing. We like to change this area up to go along with the seasons (do you think we should get a snow machine 🤔)
Patche's Play Park - This is explorers Central, new novel objects for your dog to interact with to help with building your dogs confidence 🤩
Zena's Chill Zone - And finally a place for you and your dog to sit and relax while your dog can enjoy one of our complimentary KONGtails and your own choice of refreshment too of course 🐾

The countdown is on to our Interactive Play Spot for dogs. Since last June we've been working to create the best spot for you and your dogs to come and enjoy a calm, controlled and safe environment where dogs can be dogs and the bond between you and your dog can grow. Even our littlest helpers jumped in to help. Cannot wait to open our doors in November. Happy Friday ;)
