Puppy Natter event for training, tips and furry friendships 

Pups and proud paw-rents headed to the store for our second morning of mixing and mingling with fellow tiny tail-waggers.

We invited pups from across the region to our new puppy socialisation initiative – ‘Puppy Natter’ – a monthly hour-long session of cuteness, cuddles and companionship to help puppies build their confidence around humans and other dogs. 

The puppy session welcomed a range of breeds including Cleo the Labrador, Peter the Springer Spaniel and Keira the Chihuahua, as well as lots more.  

Hosted by head dog behaviourist, Jeanette Muldoon from Family Dog Club Ltd, the meet-up was a paw-fect opportunity for owners to pick up some training tips and tricks whilst their pups played with new fur-ever friends.

We launched Puppy Natter to help puppies learn to socialise with other dogs, while supporting caregivers with advice on puppy care, wellbeing, and general upbringing advice. 

Learning to socialise in a safe and well-managed environment with other dogs and caregivers is really important for puppies. It builds their confidence and helps them cope with a variety of situations so they can grow into confident adult dogs. Puppy Natter is a place for you to share your experiences and chat with other puppy caregivers. While gaining advice from a dog behaviourist, your puppies can play safely and happily in a controlled environment. 

We know that the puppy years can be challenging, especially if you are a first-time dog caregiver. Puppy Natter offers extra support as you embark on an exciting journey with your new pet. 

We will be holding a Puppy Natter session on the second Saturday of every month, and all puppies are welcome. Please just turn up, there is no need to book and it is free to attend.
