Nobody expects their dog to go missing.

Until it happens.

And when it does, people often realise very quickly how overwhelming and emotional it can be.

That’s one of the reasons we’ve launched our Cornwall Search Dogs newsletter 🐾

We’d love it to become a place where we can share more of what we do, celebrate the dogs who make it home safely, talk about missing dog behaviour, share safety advice, and keep people updated with what’s happening within the charity.

If you sign up, we’ll also send you our free guide:

“What To Do If Your Dog Goes Missing”

Hopefully you’ll never need it.
But if you ever do, you’ll be glad you have it.

Going to miss this sweet boy - well, little old man really. Elderly boy with doggy dementia, it's been an honour to be trusted to look after him ❤️

Just wanted to remind people that I only do ad hoc walks and pet sits. - i.e your usual dog walker is away, or you don't often need one. Pet sitting for an evening out, a day out etc.
I don't do regular contracted days/hours for when people work which I have had some requests for recently. Thank you 😊

A warning for those of you that has a dog that enjoys a game of fetch on the beach....
Today I read a post from someone who had spent the day throwing a ball for her dog on the beach which the dog adored. Later that day the dog became very unwell, thinking he had possibly eaten something poisonous on the beach and his owner took him to the vets. It turned out the dog had ingested a lot of sand - which had lead to 'sand impaction' where the sand collects in the stomach and moves on to the intestines causing a blockage. Her dog was lucky but it can be fatal.
If I see the original post again I'll share that but wanted to warn others.
Note - photo is my own (late) dog, not the dog I'm writing about.

So hot today, and have seen quite a lot of dogs being walked around. If you're on holiday please look into getting a pet sitter to look after your dog so that you can enjoy the sun without dragging them along. I'm based in West Cornwall if you want a pet sitter down here

How great is this, look at the 2 coloured lines and how the search dogs can follow the same trail over an hour later.
