This week, our dog of the week is... The Cocker Spaniel! 🐾

Did you know:
▪️ Cocker Spaniels are bouncy, playful, active dogs and popular family pets as well as working dogs
▪️ They are HIGH energy, the breed's name gives us insight to their original function - to hunt woodcock!
▪️ They are intelligent and eager to learn. Like all dogs, they have a super sense of smell but, because of their original job, Cocker Spaniels have particularly excellent sniffing abilities! A Cocker Spaniel was in fact the first cancer-detecting dog
▪️ Two strains of Cocker Spaniels exist today. Working Cockers, which as the name suggests have been primarily bred for their working ability, and Show Cockers where breeders over time have focussed on the looks and general temperament, with less interest in stamina.

What are your Cocker Spaniel's favourite activities? 🐶

Grapes and raisins can cause severe kidney problems in some dogs, though we don’t know exactly why. Recently the ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center suggested that tartaric acid may be the part of grapes that cause them to be toxic to pets, but more research is required.

Not all dogs seem to be affected by this, however for some dogs, it only takes a very small amount to cause problems. We do know that dried forms of grapes - such as raisins, sultanas and currants - seem to be more toxic to dogs. Because of this, extra care should be taken with foods like mince pies, fruit cakes and hot cross buns, as dogs can find them very tasty!

What are the signs of grape and raisin poisoning?
In severe cases, symptoms can come on very quickly, but normally they take between 24 and 72 hours to start. They include:
▪️ Vomiting
▪️ Diarrhoea
▪️ Changes in drinking and weeing
▪️ Drooling
▪️ Lack of appetite
▪️ Weakness/wobbliness
▪️ Excessive tiredness
▪️ Blood in wee, vomit or poo

The best thing to do is to contact a vet as soon as possible. It can be helpful to take the food packaging with you to show the vet.

You sometimes hear of one therapy dog, but this is a duo team of labradoodle siblings – aiming to help children one tail wag at a time!

This pair of Labradoodles called Mac and Millie are specially trained therapy dogs.

They are currently helping pupils at Fleming Fulton School and Harberton School with all aspects of their learning, and to develop their communication, motivation and social skills.

Both Mac and Millie were trained by Assistance Dogs Northern Ireland and have been working in the schools for a few months.

Thankfully the two schools are next to each other so the furry siblings can keep in touch!

The staff report the dogs help as quiet, non-judgmental companions who help with all aspects of learning from school room to the children's physio sessions too. We think this wonderful pair deserve a superdog title!

Happy Monday everyone, we wish you all a pawtastic week 🐾

(This is Luna, enjoying the fabulous weather we've been experiencing in the UK last week. As it's been so hot in the day time, some 7am fun on the beach before the temperatures soar has been very well received!)

Socialising your puppy teaches them how to behave and interact appropriately with humans and other dogs. This is really important for their long term wellbeing!

The breeder has an important role to play in providing socialisation opportunities until puppies leave for their homes.

An enriched, stimulating environment with plenty of items for the puppies to explore, as well as regular human contact and handling are fundamental for optimum puppy development.

If you are focused on socialising your pup before they are fully vaccinated, try these tips:
🐶 Puppies can be carried out-and-about during this time so they can watch activity and the world around them
🐶 Sit with them on the front doorstep and feed them a treat every time a person, dog, cyclist etc appears
🐶 Take them out for short car journeys to watch a different part of the world from a safe environment
🐶 Take a bed or blanket and sit in a coffee shop, or place a picnic mat in a park away from other dogs - this will enable lots of new experiences for your pup!

The best thing you can teach your puppy is that they will always be safe around you - concentrate on building trust and engagement with you throughout the process of socialising them.

Meet Thelma! She is a 2 year old Cocker Spaniel 🐾

What she likes: her family and friends, running and playing, especially if a squeaky ball is involved! She also loves an ear massage and using her nose to follow scents .She is very partial to applying 'Eau de Fox Poo’ if she thinks she can get away with it!

What she dislikes: She really isn't a fan of baths, getting her teeth brushed, strangers, and some teenage boy dogs!

Thelma was from the RSPCA so we don’t know her family history but we think she is more of a Working Cocker strain. She’s very intelligent but a bit of an overthinker and her energy has to be channelled into the right things - It has taken some time to find her ‘off switch’! She has just started agility training and is loving it.
