According to a survey by the RAC over 44% of dog owners wouldn’t consider going away this summer without their dog.

In fact, it also revealed that 35% of dog owners voted their dog the best travelling companion!

Many of us are opting to travel within the UK, having a stay-cation, simply to be able to holiday with our dogs.

We are thrilled to be attending one of the biggest doggie events of the year… DogFest! Hosted by Supervet, Noel Fitzpatrick, DogFest is probably the BEST dog’s day out for your furry friends and a fun day out for your family too. Perfect for all you doggie lovers DogFest is packed with amazing displays, activities, expert advice, shopping, music and much more!

Spring is back, by popular demand, but boy did she keep us waiting this year! I don’t know about you but I’m so over the muddy walks and daily power washing of caked paws. But now the sun is shining, the bare trees are budding and the fleas are back in force.

Dogs, and cats, like humans get hay fever. When the sun comes out and spring arrives the pollen takes to the air. The mud goes away and we’re back to walking our dogs on grass again, and all this sets off our hay fever, and that of our dog.

I’m often asked if its possible to train an ‘old’ dog new tricks. The answer is Yes! It’s an ‘urban myth’ that senior dogs are impossible to train. If you’re blessed to take on a puppy at eight weeks, there’s really no excuse.

The ‘hair of the dog’ cure goes far beyond fixing a hangover. Modern science has enabled us to quantify the positive effects dogs (and other animals) really do have on our wellbeing.

Wow what a show!! Not only were we one of the Official Sponsors for the second year running, we also had one of our busiest and most successful Crufts yet!

I’m in the skin business. I make a living helping dogs with itchy skin back to health so I know a thing or two about rashes, soreness, licking and constant scratching.

As an eight-year-old the highlight of my year was going to Crufts.Funny how some things never change! Crufts is still and will always be a focal point in my calendar.

We are super excited to be one of the Official Sponsors at Crufts for the second year running!
