Not only is February the month of Love but this year we have an extra day to spend with our dog too because it's Leap Year! Do you have a dog who leaps on and off furniture as though they are trialling the next level of dog flight to reach the history books alongside...
Have you ever wondered what effects these "cold snaps" have on your dog's body? Or even your own? I always used to think December was the heart of "Winter" as a kid but i seem to have chosen to forget about January and February even though i grew up with snow drifts...
So why New Brighton? Short story: The Community! I had never felt part of a group so quickly… Longer Story: Over the Summer of 2023, i was invited to join a friend at a few Beach Boxing sessions on the seafront on some gorgeous Friday mornings at silly o'clock. Ran by...
