The Dog Nonna

🐾 Sometimes, understanding your dog starts with taking a closer look.

Every dog and situation is different. An observation session gives us time to talk, gather information and explore what your dog might be communicating through their behaviour.

A play date, a walk and talk, or even a Zoom call - we’ll find the best approach that suits you and your dog.

🍃 Curious? Get in touch with The Dog Nonna and let’s start with a chat.

Thoughts from the Field 💭

If you haven’t noticed the changeover of the seasons yet, your dog certainly has. It’s like they’ve come alive with the smells, the movement and the weather as it shifts from showery mornings to sunny blustery afternoons!

There noses goes up and down, and it’s not long until they sprint off… nowhere to be found!

Oh, come on… September as well?! 🥵🐾

We’ve had our fill of heatwaves, thank you.

We’ve had the extreme downpour intermission. 🌧️

And we’re back to having the “Is it too hot for a walk?” conversations again…

Now apparently September wants a turn. 🙄☀️

So, before the sun turns up for its encore, here’s a little reminder from The Dog Nonna…

Your dog doesn’t need to suffer, and you don’t need to 2nd guess what to do for the best.

Companion Volume 02**: The Dog Nonna’s Guide to Cooler Days with Your Dog**, has arrived just in time for the bank holiday weekend and the last few weeks of the summer holidays.

It’s your go to guide for making hot days a little easier, safer and more enjoyable for both ends of the lead. It even includes a downloadable contact page that you can print and pin up somewhere handy if you need to leave your dog with friends or family.

Inside you’ll find: Simple ideas, practical tips and a gentle reminder to slow down, change your daily walk times or even know when to not walk the dog especially the weather goes over 20-25 degrees or more

So, Mr Weatherman, another heatwave planned? The Dog Nonna has it covered!

Amazing news! Just need others to follow…

We've had a few messages of concern asking what time our fireworks are... There's no need for concern as we are having a LASER SHOW from our main stage this year instead at 10pm (edit, apologies posted wrong time earlier it's been a long day!)
So no need to worry about what time the sky will start banging!
We understand that some may be disappointed at this, but have taken into consideration the distress fireworks can cause to pets, people, the animals at Shaldon wildlife trust, farm animals and wildlife that can take no precautions at all against the effects fireworks have on them, while still putting on a great show of lights!
