Sunday coffee is done… now let me put you onto my “visitors are coming” shortcut 😂 Sundays is family night in our household, Nathan cooks, I entertain Remy, our grandson, and the others chat about anything and everything!

Every week there’s a theme in my messages. Diet, of course. Paw licking that’s driving everyone mad. Owners at their wits’ end with the dreaded itch. The list goes on.

Pawlab usually comes up somewhere, but this week the chats about it have been next level!

I buy their products myself because they do what I need them to do. They also donate cleaning products to rescues, which makes me even happier to support them.

My favourite? The River Mint air freshener.

A quick spray before visitors arrive and the house smells like I’ve been cleaning all day. We’ll keep that between us! I love the other scents too, but River Mint is the one I keep reaching for.

Their laundry liquid is another regular here for the dogs’ bedding and blankets. Clean, fresh washing without any lingering dog smell.

And for those little mishaps, yes. I’m talking about you George, the enzyme cleaner tackles the mess and the smell, helping discourage another visit to the same spot, mmmmm!

Snowman’s Sunday job is keeping me company over coffee. Apparently, the washing is still mine.

If you’re wondering where to start, the River Mint spray gets my vote!

Meet Mickey, the handsome, young 18 month old Boston Terrier. Those days of laying around are over! He’s finished his Reset and the beautiful Cheryl has already seen improvements. He’s up, enjoying life and annoying his brother Ollie, just how it should be… I’m really looking forward to the rest of his journey! Cheryl Rydzynski

“Failure cannot cope with persistence.”

Meet Charlie Girl. Isn’t she beautiful? ❤️

Mel sent me the loveliest message: “I’m sticking to everything you found and she is a new doggo.”

What makes me happiest is that Mel has kept showing up for Charlie. She made the food changes, stayed consistent and paid attention to how Charlie was doing along the way. Now she’s seeing a difference in the dog she loves.

If you’re working through changes with your own dog, keep going. Progress can take patience, and those little improvements are worth celebrating.

Thank you for letting me share your gorgeous girl, Mel.

Why "just remove what's on the list" doesn't always fix the itch…

Got your dog's sensitivity and intolerance results back, cut out everything flagged... and the itching, ear issues, or paw licking are still hanging around?

You're not doing it wrong. The list is just half the picture.

Quick distinction worth knowing: true food allergies are actually rare in dogs. Most of what we're dealing with day to day is sensitivities and intolerances — different mechanism, different approach.

That's where testing helps. It takes a lot of the guesswork out and gives us a starting point to actually build on — not a diagnosis, but a foundation.

Because here's the bit that trips people up: a results list tells you what showed up. It doesn't tell you why your dog's skin, gut or immune system got to this point — or what they actually need to recover. And just because something didn't flag on the report doesn't mean it's automatically a good fit for your dog either.

This is why we don't just hand over a list and wave you off. We work through three phases with you:

🔄 Reset — settle things down and take the pressure off an overloaded system
🛠️ Repair — support gut and skin health so healing can actually happen
🌱 Rebuild — reintroduce and strengthen with a diet and routine built for your dog's needs

Alongside that, we send an online pet assessment so we can look at the whole dog — not just results on a page. Diagnosed illnesses, current medications, whether they're under a vet care plan — we work with all of it when choosing ingredients, so the plan actually suits your dog, not just their test results.

If your dog's results didn't lead anywhere new, you're stuck wondering what to actually do with the list you've got, or you’re just starting out and interested in testing… send us a message. Happy to talk it through. 🐾

Our girl is home—and she came through with flying colours. 🤍

Marley’s incision is much longer than I expected, but our vet needed to remove a larger area to give her the best chance of clear margins.

She is now home, comfortable and absolutely lapping up all the spoiling.

In true Marley fashion, she even brought me her lead and was ready for a walk. Her mind tells her she could walk for miles, but her body isn’t quite on the same page! We made it half a block for some fresh air and a change of scenery, then came straight home—and she is now happily tucked back into bed.

Since sharing Marley’s story, Hayley has let me know that her beautiful girl Amara went in for surgery yesterday for the same thing. We’ll be keeping them both very close in our thoughts as unfortunately, she has a long road ahead.

We often see and hear about sun-related skin cancers affecting dogs’ noses and ears, but the tummy can easily be overlooked. Areas with very little hair—particularly pale or lightly pigmented skin—have far less natural protection from the sun.

Please take a moment to check your dog’s tummy, groin and other sparsely haired areas. A sore that doesn’t heal, a crusty patch, a changing mark or something that simply doesn’t look right deserves attention. Marley’s began as a small sore that refused to heal.

And for everyone who has asked about our sunscreen: it will be based on the same formula we released last summer, with a few thoughtful tweaks. Once we have gathered the ingredients and put everything together, we’ll let you know.

For now, thank you for every message, comment and kind thought sent Marley’s way. Our tough old girl is home, she is comfortable—and she is being thoroughly spoilt. Just as she should be. 🤍

Tomorrow, Marley is having skin cancer removed. 🤍

What started as a small sore on her tummy simply wouldn’t heal.

Marley is 8½ now, and anyone who knows her knows how much she loves sunbaking. Over the years, that adds up to a lot of time in the sun—even with me constantly moving her back into the shade.

I hoped the sore was nothing sinister, but my vet has now confirmed that it is skin cancer. Tomorrow, Marley will have it removed, along with several other suspicious little areas on her tummy.

It has made something we were already planning for Salty Paws feel far more personal—and far more important.

We’ve been working on our new **Salty Paws Adventure Range**, looking at caps, protective rashies and our dog-friendly sunscreen.

We introduced our sunscreen last summer and completely sold out. We’ll now be gathering the ingredients and making a fresh batch ready for the warmer weather—not only for Marley, but for all the other little sun lovers out there.

Sunscreen and protective clothing can’t change the years already spent soaking up the sunshine, but they can help us be more mindful about protecting exposed skin moving forward.

For Marley, the Adventure Range is no longer simply a new product idea. It now has a very real reason and a very special face behind it.

If you would like a pot of our sunscreen put aside when the new batch is ready, please leave a comment or send me a message.

For now, please keep our beautiful Marley in your thoughts as she heads in for surgery tomorrow. 🤍
