🐾💦 Two more happy pups have officially joined the Paws in the Pool gang! 💦🐾

These superstars took the plunge yesterday and had an amazing time building confidence and having fun.

Whether your dog loves to make a splash, needs a confidence boost, or just wants a fun way to exercise, our pool sessions are a fantastic way to keep them active and happy.

A big well done to these two water-loving recruits—we think they’ve definitely caught the swimming bug! 🏊‍♂️🐾

🌟 Advanced Tricks Club Superstars! 🌟

What a fantastic session at Advanced Tricks Club! 🐾

As it has been so hot recently, I wanted lots of fun things, so from skateboarding 🛹 and ball skills ⚽ to holds 🏸 and quoits, these dogs were showing off just how talented they are. The focus, enthusiasm, and teamwork between dogs and handlers is amazing to watch.

It’s incredible to see how far everyone has come, and as always, the dogs absolutely smashed it! 👏🐶

Well done to all our clever pups and their dedicated humans—you make teaching these classes such a pleasure. ❤️- Donna S
