Dogs: Their Secret Lives

Monday, 14th October 2013 at 10:41 AM

Channel 4 will tonight feature a show called dogs: their secret livesDogs: their secret lives will feature footage recorded while dogs are left alone and is reported to show some dogs fretting an unsettled manner.  It will be interesting to see the results as it very much backs up the service we offer and believe in!  Do you wonder what dogs: their secret lives would say about your pets?  Do you worry about them when you are away? Does your dog have separation anxiety?   With our service you don't have to as we are able to provide you with one to one care for your pets whenever you need to be away from your property for longer than usual.  Cover can be provided from a few hours to a regular holiday sit.  We will be with them, walk them, play and generally ensure that they remain relaxed and happy.  Our version of dogs: their secret lives involves them lapping up all the extra attention!

We will be tuning into dogs: their secret lives this evening and will be running a comment thread on our Facebook page.  We would love to hear your opinions!  Dogs: their secret lives is on Channel 4 at 8.00 p.m. on Monday 14th October.
