Vets And Warkworth Show.....

Emily, Keiser and Tom.

One thing that I am very proud of is, that despite suffering horrendous abuse in the past, and the resulting issues caused by it, we still manage to treat our dogs to a lifestyle that is as near to a home life as is possible in a kennel environment.

Two walks a day, breakfast and dinner and of course a load of love and attention.

I think there is one aspect of life that the majority dogs,  if not all, don't embrace, is a trip to the vets. Even on that side of things our dogs don't miss out. Much to their disgust!

We have been working with Moorview Vets for as long as the charity has been running. We've seen some incredible happy times together, but sadly shared a whole lot more heartbreak.

They fully understand the work we do and never judge our dogs. They know that through helping us, they are all they have.

However, sometimes a trip to the vets though is quite a stressful experience, and would just cause too much upset. So to make sure all of our dogs get treated the same, Moorview very kindly come to examine all of our dogs twice a year.

It's great to be able to say they've been checked over, but also amazing watching them interact with people they don't know and trusting.

We had a visit just recently, our usual vet and great friend Emily brought a newer vet Tom with her for his first visit. He seemed to enjoy himself and was very impressed with both the dogs and our facilities judging by his report.

The rapport doesn't finish there, and this Saturday we are working together again at the Warkworth Show. For the last 5 years or so we've done the show together as a fundraiser for us, and every year it gets bigger and more successful.

The vets kindly organise a fun dog show, of which I have the honour of judging. It's a very difficult job, but one I really enjoy and people put so much effort into it. Plus I get to meet some incredible dogs.

The show itself is a fantastic day out, it will be great to see you there.

EXCLUSIVE!!!!!

I'm delighted to say our special little girl Sadie will be joining me at the show as we start the long road to getting her a home. She was amazing on her vets visit,  and as predicted biopsies were taken. We are awaiting the results.

Why not come and give her a cuddle on Saturday.
