Final walk with this beautiful cockapoo!
Tuesday 4th June 2019
Really sad as this dog goes home to her owners-we have loved taking her out and planning fun activities whilst taking care of her hips. https://www.poochonapedestal.co.uk/cockapooscwmbran
Super bright crossbreed
Sunday 2nd June 2019
This older lady is so clever-she doesn't need a long walk so she has los of stimulation at home. She is always thrilled to see us and by keeping her mind active, we support longevity with her owner https://www.poochonapedestal.co.uk/dogpopinservicenewport
Pug Pottering
Friday 31st May 2019
These 2 pugs have very different needs and so their enrichment plans as part of their walks are very different to ensure each has a chance to play and experience what he or she likes best to ensure a happy evening.
Saluki Sport
Thursday 30th May 2019
Salukis are sight hounds and very very fast and prey driven. We use longline leads to ensure safety. https://www.poochonapedestal.co.uk/dogwalkingmagor
Sproodle Summer
Wednesday 29th May 2019
Sproodles are very energetic but also clever and needing lots of stimulation to keep their focus. Our puppy enrichment visits are packed with cognitive and sensory work on top of basic training and socialisation and developmental needs https://www.poochonapedestal.co.uk/puppytrainingcardiff
Cavachon capers
Tuesday 28th May 2019
This little puppy has enrichment visits which focus on giving her the best start in terms of socialisation and cognitive tasks https://www.poochonapedestal.co.uk/puppytrainingcaerwent
Border Collie Agility and basic training, with play
Monday 27th May 2019
We walk these 2 border collies most days and they are very bright and energetic https://www.poochonapedestal.co.uk/dogwalkingrogiet
Puppy Ball Bonanza
Tuesday 21st May 2019
This Vizsla puppy loves nothing more than foraging for food but he is getting used to new environments at the same time as part of his enrichment plan. https://www.poochonapedestal.co.uk/puppyhomevisitscardiff
Sproodle Puppy's First Adventure
Sunday 19th May 2019
This little girl is only 12 weeks but so curious and excited to see everything-although she looks up for reassurance when she hears strange sounds. She can't understand why not everyone wants to stroke her though. Her enrichment plan focuses on all areas of puppy development and socialisation needs whilst taking care not to allow her to damage her limbs or hips until her plates are fully formed at around 12 months https://www.poochonapedestal.co.uk/puppytrainingcardiff
Rottweiler Ramble
Saturday 18th May 2019
This 1 year old totally loved his forest walk full of low ball games to support his hips, playing Hide and Seek, a good run and plenty of foraging. https://www.poochonapedestal.co.uk/dogwalkernewport
