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.
