The camping and caravan show.

Dog lovers are often going to want to take their dogs on holiday with them but may also be away from home with their dogs for other reasons, too, such as entering multi-day doggie events. For this reason, something like a motor home or caravan can offer the freedom to take your dog(s) with you.

On 24th February Naturally Happy Dogs set off to the NEC in Birmingham to explore the sort of vehicles that are currently on the market. The choice is bewildering: a huge range of sizes and types but more especially a wide range of internal layouts. Ones that particularly caught our eye were motor homes where parts of the interior could be removed, altered or moved. We even found a small motor home with generous room for dog crates under a bed.

The vehicle that appealed most to us, though, was the least practical: a caravan made entirely of lego. It wasn't something you could take on holiday but was utterly charming.

Photizo Light therapy

Naturally Happy Dogs have always taken the approach of finding out what's out there for a dog's health and leave the decision to the owner about which to choose. We recently met Ruth from Danetre Health Products who offers Photizo LED light therapy.

It sounds very exciting and multi-purpose and so easy for everyone to use.  Ruth had a willing volunteer in the form of her young cocker spaniel who seemed very relaxed receiving their treatment.

Crufts is celebrating 125 years

We thoroughly enjoyed this look back at the last 125 years of Crufts dog show

Did you see any others?

Beco Pets

Today we met with Beco Pets in Kent to film an article about their company and products. It's amazing just how many dog toys and poo bags can be fitted into one warehouse - and that was apparently only 2 weeks supply!

Beco now sell products to 33 different countries, it's no wonder as we think their eco friendly products are great.
