PK Pet Kingdom

How lovely was that winter sun today? Making those dog walks seem more appealing and getting us excited for warmer days 🌞

Whilst we appreciate it wasn’t hot today, when the summer months do come (it won’t be long guys), it’s really important to keep your dogs noses and paws protected from the heat. Our new balm is made up of healing products such as Calendula and Shea Butter, that helps protects your pets paws and noses from the heat as well as protects them from rough surfaces such as hot pavements.

Wow! Thank you for all your paw and balm orders over the weekend, what a great response to our latest product 👏

If you’ve made an order, we’d love to hear your thoughts and please do leave a review on Amazon (link in bio). We’d also love to be tagged in your pawsome pics 😉

This image tells you just some of the amazing benefits of the balm, it’s also 100% organic and natural 🙌

We are so excited for our latest product launch, 100% organic paw and nose balm, for cracked or dry noses and paws 🐾

Because this balm is so soothing and nourishing it will help to moisturise and restore your dogs paws and nose. This is due to it being purposely designed and created with super indulgent and restorative ingredients such as Beeswax, coconut oil and calendula extract which promotes healing ❤️‍🩹

The best part, this product isn’t limited to just dogs, it’s also great for cats and all your other furry friends 🙌

Keep your paws peeled for the official launch date 🐾

For anyone who needs a reminder, on the Monday-ist of Mondays, what feels like the 526th of January 🐶❤️💕🥰

Oh hey sunshine ☀️ 👋🏼 it is so nice not to get back drenched for a change!

We've been feeling the cold this week at PK HQ 🥶; we get it; walking your dog in -4 conditions (or lower 😱) is hard to get excited about for some and not possible for others. So, we've put together some alternative activities to keep your pawtner stimulated & occupied if you can't get outside:

1. Puzzles - we aren't talking jigsaws 😂; dog puzzle toys are great for mental stimulation; they'll keep your dog busy & prevent them from getting into things they shouldn't (chewing furniture etc)

2. Kongs - a classic, fill a kong with some dog-friendly peanut butter 🥜 & this will keep them busy for a while!

3. Licky pads - these are not only mentally stimulating but an excellent tool for dogs who suffer from separation anxiety, spread a spreadable treat over a licky pad & leave them to it; if you're using it as an aid for separation anxiety, start by leaving your dog for a short period & gradually increase the time away.

4. Rope toys/balls - using either of these options to play as either a tug of war or "fetch" will use up some of that (endless) energy!

Tag us in any new activities you & your four-legged friend get up to 🐶!

At PK HQ we try to start each day with a dog walk 🦮 but coffee ☕️ is absolutely essential before interacting with humans. How do you and your furry friends start the day?

Countless studies show the benefits of having a pet🐶🐱; some won't come as a surprise, but what you may not expect are some of the health benefits.

A 2020 study from the University of York showed that 90% of pet owners felt their four-legged friends helped them cope during the first lockdown, whilst Harvard Medical School found that just petting a dog can reduce your heart rate & blood pressure; the dog loves it too!

Here are some of the researched benefits of owning a pet;
- reduces the feeling of loneliness 😔
- reduces heart rate & blood pressure 💉
- teaches your kids responsibility 👶
- helps alleviate stress & anxiety 🤯
- encourages exercise & movement 🏃‍♀️
- improves cognitive function in older people 🧠
- improves social skills 🙋‍♀️

Now that we're in December, we thought it would be helpful to share a few hints & tips on how to make this Christmas pet safe & fun for everyone 🎄

- Lots of people like to give their Dogs a special Christmas dinner; who can blame them after we've eaten our weight in roast potatoes 😋? Here are some dog-safe foods from your Christmas plate that won't result in you taking a family trip to the Vets Boxing Day; keep in mind its best to introduce new food slowly to avoid upset tummies & any food high in salt should be avoided:
Turkey/Lamb meat (no bones)
Salmon Fillet
Green Beans
Brussel Spouts
Parsnips
Carrots
Peas
Swede
Potato (boiled is best)

- Toxic Foods essential to avoid🙅:
Chocolate - even a tiny amount can make your dog very ill.
Christmas Pudding & Mince pies - the grapes & dried fruit can cause kidney failure
Onions - including garlic, leeks, shallots & chives; keep in mind these ingredients are in many foods such as stock & gravy, stuffing mixtures etc
Alcohol - this may sound obvious, but dogs can get curious around unattended glasses!
Macadamia Nuts
Leftovers - can easily be left unattended or contain any of the above
Sweets - many of these contain Xylitol which is poisonous to dogs

Finally, make your life easier & keep your Christmas tree area a dog-free zone; there are so many temptations around a tree; "this shiny bauble looks delicious", "those fairy lights look like a flashing snake, I must save my hooman from this mortal danger", "why do all of these weird smelling things make an odd noise, I must destroy them."
