Pet loss

Pet loss is one of the hardest parts of loving a dog.

I’m often contacted by my own families when they’re navigating the loss of their beloved dog, or facing the difficult decision of when the time is right.

It’s an incredibly emotional time, and having the right support can make all the difference.

This is where Paws for Talk comes in. Nikki offers compassionate support for families going through pet loss, helping guide you through the grief and decision-making with understanding and care.

If you need support, you can reach out to Nikki here:

Introducing Miss Scarlett - who has come to stay with us. ❤️
Scarlett is Reynas daughter(who is Camuka bred) When I mentioned to Chris that I would love a puppy from Reyna one day, I never imagined it would happen so soon… so when Scarlett became available, I simply couldn’t say no. Scarlett’s dad is the lovely NZ boy Keridale Whisky Mac(Ai). Thank you Yvonne for allowing us to use Mac.

And it already feels like she was always meant to be here. Scarlett is a mini clone of her grandma Shine - who has completely taken her under her wing and is treating her just like her own daughter 🐾

Easter is a beautiful time with family, food, and fun… but it can be dangerous for our dogs if we’re not careful.

🍫 Easter eggs & chocolate
Chocolate is toxic to dogs - even small amounts can make them very sick.

🍞 Hot cross buns
These often contain raisins/sultanas, which are highly toxic and can cause kidney failure.

🐾 Easter egg hunts
Keep your pets well away - hidden chocolate + curious noses = trouble.

👧👦 Watch the kids
Little helpers love to share… but make sure they don’t feed treats to the dog.

💛 A little awareness goes a long way in keeping everyone safe and happy this Easter.
