Paws the frantic google searching- we have a solution.

 A big hello to you indeed!

Welcome to Dog with a Blog- starring Clover, written by Rebecca.

Over the fantastic 18 months Clover and I have shared together, it became clear to me how massively inconvenient it is to find good groomers, dog friendly restaurants etc. I learned very quickly that this would initially be a process of trial and error.

When I adopted Clover I had the full intention of taking her on holidays, days out and generally having her by my side when I could. When it comes to finding great places to take her, I'm always struggling to find somewhere really good. So, I have decided to bless you all with my findings and to share some really great places you can take your dogs in and around Glasgow! 

WARNING: ADORABLE DOG CONTENT AHEAD



Over the next few posts we will be talking about fantastic dog walks, fur baby friendly food places, short breaks both you and the dog would enjoy and much more!

Hopefully this blog will enlighten you and inspire you to spend more time with your dog. Who knows how we would've coped over the several pandemics had we not had our furry friends by our side. I genuinely found it a very pleasant experience to spend so much time with my dog. I think that over the lockdown, Clover gave me a sense of routine that I really needed to get through the long boring days.

Now we are on the other side of things (hopefully!) I think it is a great time to make the most of being allowed outside and enjoying that time with the little pal who got you through it. 

I did quite a bit of travelling with Clover over the summer and winter months the past year, so it's fair to say we have had plenty of experiences and advice to share with you all so that you all can go on these memorable outings (hopefully with a bit less stress)!

Keep up to date with us by following our social media! And don't be shy! Clover and I would love to hear your comments or any suggestions of places you have been and would recomend!

off the leash (mentally and physically)

  If you’re a dog owner, you likely take your dog out a few times a day,  everyday.  So… have a think to yourself, are you making the most of it?   I always acknowledge the fact that taking my dog a walk is of course a necessity, but it doesn’t have to be a chore. It is a time you and your dog should be able to enjoy together, and who knows- you might find it is your favourite part of your day.   To your dog, their walk is the most exhilarating, stimulating, and enjoyable time. They need it for more than just exercise, they also need to sniff and explore the outside world (more than just the inside of your lovely home).   In this case, shouldn’t we be making sure that every walk counts? And shouldn’t we be making them as enjoyable as possible, if not for you, then definitely for your dog!   So, let’s go over some top issues when walking your dog (that you lovely readers have let me know about) and tackle them with some solutions.   1.   ...

escape to the wild with your furry friend!

 let's get outta here- vacationing with your dog anyone? When life gets you down- it isn't uncommon for you to feel the need to escape! But for us dog owners, the dog-mum guilt gets REAL!  Sure, it isn't very appealing or simple to imagine taking your dog to a 4 star holiday resort in Turkey, but there are plenty of holidays for you and your pet for when you do want to take your dog away with you. Personally, Clover and I have been on a good number of vacations together since I got her. Especially in the era of the Covid-19 Pandemic, staycations became all the rage! Seeing as we were booking a staycation, I couldn't come up with many reasons not to take Clover. When researching online, there were plenty of dog friendly accommodations so it ended up being a very easy process to organise. As always, we have compiled some top tips for planning a trip away with your dog! Consider how far you want to go! Usually travelling by car is the way to go, but the further away you ch...

just an inch off the end- PLEASE!

Groomers. You either love them or you fear them with all your life. Maybe you're lucky and your pup doesn't need anything more than a nail clip and a bath. However, for a lot of pups, the transformation from a groom can completely change the appearance of your dog- so it's important that you take them somewhere you trust. Now I won't lie- Clover has had some BELTERS of a groom, ones I can't even look her in the eye because I know she hates me type of grooms but we have learned our lesson well. Clover is a Cockapoo, meaning she is half poodle, half cocker spaniel. According to the internet, I was recommended to brush her coat every day and to have her properly trimmed every few weeks (either by myself or a professional). Initially, I looked online for groomers in my local area that had good ratings for her first puppy groom (really a session just to get her clean and tidy, whilst getting used to being groomed). She didn't seem to mind too much, but it became evid...
