🐾 Feeling Nervous About Your Pet’s First Stay at a Kennel? You’re Not Alone! 🐾⁠

We get it—leaving your furry friend can feel overwhelming, but more often than not, it’s the owners who feel the anxiety, not the pets! In fact, many pets settle in faster than you’d expect and have an amazing time.⁠

We’ve put together a new blog post to help ease your worries and give you a better idea of what to expect. Check it out now! 📖

🐾 3 Reasons to Switch Your Pet to a Raw Food Diet! 🥩✨⁠

Thinking of upgrading your pet’s diet? Here’s why raw feeding might just be the best choice for your furry friend:⁠

1️⃣ Shinier Coats & Healthier Skin⁠
Packed with natural nutrients, raw food promotes healthier skin and a glossy coat your pet will love showing off!⁠

2️⃣ Improved Digestion & Energy Levels⁠
Raw feeding mimics what pets would eat in the wild, making it easier on their stomachs and giving them sustained energy throughout the day.⁠

3️⃣ Cleaner Teeth & Fresher Breath⁠
The natural ingredients in raw food help reduce plaque buildup and support better oral health—goodbye, bad breath!⁠

🌟 Why ROAR?⁠
We stock ROAR because it’s made with 100% natural, premium ingredients right here in New Zealand. We’ve seen the incredible benefits firsthand with our own pets!⁠

📍 Available now in our office. Pop in and grab your bag today or chat with us to learn more.⁠

Give your pets the gift of health this summer with ROAR! 🐕💚

🐾 Thinking About Adopting a Puppy? Here’s What You Need to Know 🐾⁠

Bringing a puppy into your life is a big commitment—it’s not just about picking the cutest one! Here are some important things to consider before adopting:⁠

✨ Breed Research: Are you ready for a big dog or a high-energy breed? Some breeds thrive on farms with plenty of space to run, like Border Collies, but might struggle in a tiny apartment. Make sure the breed fits your lifestyle and environment.⁠

✨ Exercise Needs: Dogs have a lot of energy and require daily physical activity and mental stimulation to stay happy and healthy. Can your schedule and physical ability handle multiple walks, play sessions, and enrichment activities every day?⁠

✨ Your Lifestyle: Do you have children? Travel frequently? Ready to commit to the next 10–15 years of care and love? Puppies need stability and dedicated attention to thrive.⁠

✨ Time & Training: Puppies require a lot of patience, time, and training to grow into well-mannered adults. Are you ready for the work that comes with teaching them everything from basic commands to social skills?⁠

✨ Investing in Their Care: High-quality food, regular vet visits, vaccinations, flea treatments, and more—raising a healthy, happy dog requires financial commitment.⁠

✨ Socialisation: Exposing your pup to different environments, people, and other dogs from a young age is crucial for building their confidence and preventing future behavioral issues.⁠

✨ Littermate Syndrome: Thinking of adopting two puppies from the same litter? Be cautious—littermate syndrome can cause serious behavioral challenges, like overdependence on each other and difficulty with training. It’s often better to focus on one puppy at a time.⁠

✨ Adopt, Don’t Shop: Consider visiting local shelters where amazing dogs are waiting for their forever homes. Avoid supporting unethical breeders and give a rescue dog a second chance.⁠

Choosing the right puppy and preparing for their arrival takes careful thought and planning, but the rewards of a well-loved dog are worth it 🐶💛⁠

Are you ready to welcome a puppy into your life? 🐾⁠
