Customer Review

Our latest customer review on the Free Index business website - After moving to a new area I had to find a new cat sitter for my cat Izzy. Scamps and Champs seemed reasonable prices and had good reviews. The initial meeting was great, Lesley came and met Izzy and asked me about any special care for her. I booked her over the Christmas break at very reasonable rates. When I returned from my break Lesley had written down a day-by-day account of the care she had given and if there were any problems. All in all a very good service. Thank you.

Fireworks

Pet safety on Bonfire Night - Hints and tips on how to keep your pets happy.   Loud bangs from fireworks can distress dogs and other animals, so follow these few simple steps to keep your pets happy over bonfire season.

Dogs
  • Exercise your dog during the day.
  • Never walk your dog while fireworks are being let off.
  • Keep your dog indoors, close the curtains and play music to drown out the noise.
  • Let your dog hide if it wants to take refuge under furniture or in a corner.
  • Make sure your dog is wearing a collar and tag and is microchipped in case it bolts and becomes lost.

Cleaning Your Dogs Teeth

Your dogs hygiene is as important as your own and a dog's teeth should not be overlooked.
Your dogs teeth and gums still get a build up of plaque and bacteria even when their diet is healthy. Every time a dog eats, food will collect along the teeth and food particles build up. Saliva is a dogs natural way to keep a dogs mouth clean but often it is not enough.
Some dogs are more prone to oral problems because of poor teeth alignment, recesses in the mouth (where food gathers), broken teeth or simply hereditary factors.

Apple Bobbing Kong Recipie

While you’re apple bobbing at Hallowe’en, why not give your dog an apple-y treat too? What to stuff This is best used with a kong or similar as it will ooze out of anything which is open at both ends. Ingredients
  • 1 or 2 cooking apples (depending on the size of your kong)
  • 1 tbsp water
  • 1tsp honey (less or none at all for senior dogs and dogs on a weight loss diet)
How to stuff it Peel and core the apples. Chop up the remaining flesh and put it in a pan along with the water to stew. Boil the mixture with a lid on for around 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it’s become soft.
