Doggy spa is in session! Youā€™ll notice that there are fewer dogs in one photo than the other - Agatha (mini dachshund) was evicted from the spa for refusal to wear a robe and constantly running around in the n**e. Weā€™re not that kind of establishment!

My friendā€™s niece has just started a dog grooming business. Sheā€™s spent a long time training and qualifying and sheā€™s lovely! Iā€™m often asked if I can recommend groomers - Iā€™d have no qualms about recommending Isla. Your pets will be in safe hands šŸ„°

Dear commercial TV channels,

My daycare dogs respectfully ask that you stop showing the tails.com advert on a bi-hourly basis on your many many channels as theyā€™re exhausted from launching themselves off the sofa to within 2 inches of my wall-mounted TV screen, to bark themselves hoarse at the hundreds of Labradors running across a field.

Yours desperately
Kerry

Hi everyone. Unfortunately Iā€™m not in a position to take on any further boarders or new clients at the moment. My day care group increased in size last year and in addition we may soon hear the pitter patter of our very own Leads and Trails tiny paws šŸ„° šŸ¶ ā€¦ watch this space (Edit: Agatha the Miniature Dachshund is now taken up permanent residence with us šŸ„°)! This combination will make it tricky to give any extra doggie visitors the love, care and attention they deserve when away from home - Iā€™m really sorry but Iā€™d rather not give less than 100% service. Iā€™ll let you know as soon as any spaces open up ā¤ļø

Next time I moan about having to walk in the rain or snow, or Iā€™m tempted to sleep in after being up during the night to comfort an upset dog, feel free to slap me. This is the best job in the world - look at these happy, relaxed faces. They make my heart glad šŸ„°

After the beach comes the drying! I discovered last week that Frida loved the hairdryer when she threw herself at my feet, tummy on show, as I did my post-shower blow dry.

I wonā€™t be offended if you donā€™t watch the full 6 minutes of Frida at my beauty salon. You can probably get the picture after a few seconds šŸ¤£

What better way to spend a Saturday morning than on the beach? Frida loved feeling the wind in her fur šŸ„°

Hello everyone. Thanks to your continued support ā€¦ and your holidays šŸ¤£ I now find myself booked solidly for the majority of the year ahead. I never thought Iā€™d be saying that in February! I have the odd night free here and there but these come up very infrequently. Unless I have any cancellations Iā€™m afraid I donā€™t have the capacity to look after any more of your lovely dogs this year šŸ˜¢

Itā€™s really important to me that the dogs associate their time at my home with enjoyable experiences. In order to encourage this I prefer to keep the groups small. It means Iā€™m much more able to give dogs the individual attention they deserve and hopefully provide them with a stress free environment. It does however limit the number of dogs I can accept and Iā€™m very aware of disappointing people when they request my help.

So in short, itā€™s not you, itā€™s me! šŸ˜ I hope that makes sense. I will of course post any cancellations if they occur, and in the meantime please feel free to make requests as usual but just be aware that itā€™s likely Iā€™ll have to regretfully decline šŸ˜¢ x

Dog Walker, Pet Sitter and Experienced Former Vet Nurse

Welcome to Leads and Trails - East Lothian! Run by a fully insured, former veterinary nurse with 10 years experience working at the University of Edinburgh Hospital for Small Animals. Iā€™m Kerry - in addition to my nursing qualifications Iā€™m also an experienced pet sitter and dog walker. Due to the time I spent helping animals recuperate over the years I have developed a particular interest in walking with dogs who may have more challenges than others when it comes to getting out and about. This could possibly be due to amputation, chronic arthritis, or other age-related difficulties. With Leads and Trails - East Lothian, I look forward to walking with dogs of all shapes, sizes, ages and abilities - either able bodied or slightly less so! Iā€™d be happy to discuss your dogā€™s exercise requirements on an individual basis and build their walks around those needs.

I also board dogs in my own home. My husband and I live in lovely Aberlady in East Lothian. We have a fully enclosed garden and lots of lovely walks nearby. While at our house your dog would live with us as though he or she was our own family pet. Your dog would be our only guest (unless of course you have more than one dog, in which case weā€™d be happy for all them to stay if you wished) so would get our sole attention. We provide food and water bowls, blankets, towels and toys - naturally you are welcome to provide your own items if you would prefer. In my experience dogs are more comfortable in their own beds so I would ask that if possible you bring this, along with dog food for the duration of your petā€™s stay. Iā€™ll provide you with regular updates, photos and videos so you can be assured that your dog is having a great time ā€œon holidayā€. I look forward to hearing from you!
