Dogs are born to work for a living.  Most are bred for a particular purpose such as hunting, herding livestock or providing protection.

Our companion dogs are mostly Couch Potatoes! They get their food for free in a bowl and are often confined and inactive for most of the day, contributing to behaviour problems and weight gain.

Many pet owners assume that if a dog has access to a yard, he’s getting enough exercise. WRONG! Dogs don’t run laps by themselves -  it’s the interaction with you that counts!

The amount of exercise your dog needs depends on his breed, size, age and the condition of his health. Arthritis, heart and respiratory conditions can all be exacerbated by incorrect levels of exercise.

Talking about the stuff you don't want to know about!

Vomiting and diarrhoea. Most people don't want to mention these words, let alone clean it off their carpet! The truth is, most dogs and cats suffer from either (or both) of these at some point in their life.

Better Behaviour is in the Air...

Pheromones are used in the animal kingdom to communicate. They are released between members of the same species in different situations.

There are now products available both for dogs and cats that contain a synthetic version of the pheromones used to reduce stress and produce a feeling of security. 

We are able to provide you with these products - Feliway for cats and Adaptil for dogs. 

Indications for use in cats include: inappropriate urine marking, scratching the furniture, reduced desire to interact or play, moving house with your cat, introduction of a new family member (pet or baby), or traveling with your cat.
