Taking care of Fido

Dogs are our companions and protectors and become part of the family. Here are some tips to keep you and your dogs happy.  
  • Old toilet roll or kitchen roll holders make inexpensive and disposable chew toys for puppies.
  • Dedicate an old sheet for use as a drape over car seats when travelling you’re your dogs; saves the task of removing hair on fabric seats or claws scratching leather.
  • Do not compromise on a year-round flea and tick prevention strategy.
  • As dogs age, ensure bedding provides warmth and padding for ageing arthritic joints.
  • Never treat dogs with human ointments or medicines.
  • Never give your dogs chicken bones. They can splinter causing serious damage to a dogs digestive system.
