The biggest congratulations to the littlest girl Frida, our Halloween costume contest winner! She channeled her inner Wednesday Addams and stole the show with her spooky style. Every pup looked frightfully adorable in their costumes—well done to all the dogs (and their humans) for bringing such wickedly fun vibes to daycare this Halloween!
A few words from our winner:
“Use the word “little” and “girl” to address me again and I can’t guarantee your safety.”

About Us...

Dogs have always been a big part of my life. I have always had at least one of my own, usually more. Even while flatting at University I couldn’t be without a dog and adopted a wee rescue. I love all dogs and have owned a wide range of breeds from Bullmastiff to Brussels Griffon.

In 2004 after qualifying as a Veterinary Nurse I began working at a local vet clinic where I gained valuable practical experience and was given the responsibly of running their puppy preschool classes. This reinforced that my real passion was dogs and I continued to do more courses & seminars relating to Canine Behaviour & Training.

A few years later with the encouragement of many clients, I established and built a successful Luxury Boarding Kennels on the outskirts of Wakefield (The Canine Retreat). I enjoyed running the kennels for several years and a lot of regular guests became a big part of my life. It was a very hard decision to sell the business but by then we had two young kids and one more on the way.

Our kids are now older and once again I’m loving working full time on building a business I’m passionate about, The Contented Canine.
