Muddy Paws Pet Sitting

Completed the 5k obstacle course on Saturday! Took a while to sort out the photos and videos from the day, most turned out unusable 😅
But very proud to have done this and raised money for the Blue Cross! Massive thank you to all who donated ❤️ and you can still donate up until 31st July

Just a week to go! Any donation is appreciated, all going to the Blue Cross to support their amazing work!

All signed up for the 5K and the justgiving page is all set up for donations. I should really get started on that training, not going well so far 😅

To raise money for the Blue Cross I'll be signing up for their Inflatable 5k run taking place in Wolverhampton next month. Keep an eye out for more details on where to donate once I'm signed up later this month.

In the meantime I better get training!

Voting was a tie between the Blue Cross and Pet Blood Bank UK. So I picked the winner out of a hat and I will be fundraising for the Blue Cross!
And rather than hosting an event I'll be taking part in something else which will be announced in the coming days!

UPDATE - Voting closes on the 1st May, in the event of a tie the winner will be drawn out of a hat!

I'm planning a fundraising event but there are so many amazing charities to choose from, I've narrowed it down to three. Please help me by voting for a charity.

The Heart Emoji for Pet Blood Bank UK. Not as well known as the other two their work is no less vital. They support vets through a blood bank, much like one for humans, allowing them to save thousand of lives every year.

Thumbs up Emoji for Blue Cross. Helping every animal from horses down to the smallest hamster, not just rescue but supporting vets and helping owners during the toughest times.

Laugh Emoji for Dogs Trust. There to help every dog and owner through thick and thin. Caring for dogs in distress and helping them to find loving homes.

Each of these charities deserve as much support as they can get so please share with family and friends to spread the word.

The date, venue and other details will be announced once they have been finalised. If you're interested in taking part by running a stall please let me know as soon as possible.

Last month I completed a dog first aid course, after a few delays finally got my certificate of proof!

Think this the petition that Billy Brown mentioned if anyone is interested in signing. The deadline is the 15th December, they need 100,000 signatures for the petition to be considered for debate in Parliament. Currently they are just under 40,000.
Every year there are horror stories of so many animals traumatised and injured by fireworks, banning the sale of fireworks to the general public would be a massive step forward. Properly run displays give owners a chance to prepare properly while random fireworks set off by the general public can come out of no where with no regard for those around them. This doesn't just include animals but also people with PTSD that could be triggered by the sudden noise. So please consider signing and sharing.

Petition: Ban the sale of fireworks to the general public Purchasing and owning fireworks should not be allowed for the general public. The Government should introduce a law stating that fireworks should only be permitted for professional shows and events - this will mean they are handled safely, cleanly, and at predictable times.

Sorry it's been so long since I posted, I really am terrible at social media! But while I'm busy off dog sitting the pets at home have faced the dreaded fireworks.
Hooper was quite happy in his own little fort but Lexi took a far different approach. For her the only safe place turned out to be under the bath, completely unnoticed until she was heard meowing in there! After being reassured that she is safe in the house she was finally convinced to come out.

All ready for a great day!

After a lot of baking I'm all ready for tomorrow!
I have nine pre-made boxes of treats for sale and I'm also offering pick and mix.

Treats include:
Bacon cheese bones
Crunchy chicken or beef bones
Peanut butter Paws (if they don't melt)

Free samples are available for them all

3 Days to go until the Dog fun day!
Time to start making lots of treats, up today are:
Bacon Cheddar Bones 🥓🧀
And Dog safe Peanut butter Paws (Melt very quickly, as you can see in the picture they're already melting, so may not be available depending on the heat)

Only 1 week to go! Bring your furry little friends along for a day of doggy fun!

Took advantage of the nice weather and being in the area to drop Hooper off for a nice long walk at Cannock chase. So while I was off visiting a cat he saw deer for the first time. Luckily he was on the lead or he'd still be chasing them now 😂

So it's been a while since I posted anything. The past few months have been so busy it's been slightly overwhelming, back-to-back dog sitting with so many wonderful dogs.
Now that things are calming down a little I'm back. And with a new logo!
And on the 24th June I'll be at Creative Plants and Cafe Prego in Lichfield taking part in their Dog Fun Day! There'll be some free treats available on a first come first served basis as well as a chance to learn more about Muddy Paws.

Merry Christmas everyone! Hope you and your pets all have a wonderful day!

THE bed for all dog owners
