Your dog’s favourite walk

Pop on your walking boots and head out to your dog’s favourite walking spot to enjoy some fresh air and quality time with your pooch.

A dog walk is a great way to help both yourself and your dog stay fit and healthy! Not only that but dog walking is great for your dogs mental stimulation and socialisation!

Pamper time

Give your pooch a pamper and then spend some time pampering yourself, you deserve it!

We all like to look good and it’s the same for dogs. It’s important to keep up regular grooming for your dog to ensure their skin stays clean and healthy.

We have a great blog post with tips for grooming at home!

Cosy night in

Snuggle up with your fur baby to watch your favourite movie. If you’re stuck for a film, why not check out our favourite films to share with your dog.

Don’t be offended if your dog falls asleep in the movie! They’ll just be catching up on some well deserved doggy down time which is so important for their learning and mental well-being.
