Dogs Trust

On Tuesday 26th we had a workshop with Paul and his dog Magic, from Dogs Trust. We loved hearing about how to care for a dog, how to handle a dog, and how to behave when faced with a strange dog. Paul explained about dog training, and about how Dogs Trust rescue stray dogs, and rehome them with their forever families. Please remember, a dog is not just for Christmas, it's for life. Don't shop, Adopt! Dogs need space, time and money. Little cute puppies don't stay small forever- they grow. But if you are a good and responsible dog owner, they repay you with all their love.
