Theodore, Dorset Dog of the Year 2019 https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/coronavirus-outbreak-faqs-what-you-can-and-cant-do/ please also check news page for local advice for dog owners

Birds who nest on the ground? Yes it’s true! Young wildlife are very active now and lovely Theodore knows how we can help some of Britain’s rarest birds:

1. Be aware of where birds may be nesting low or on the ground: especially heathlands, wetlands & some downs.

2. Keep ourselves and our dogs on the paths in those places or go to off-lead places like Canford Park SANG, Upton Country Park, Riversmeet Meadows…

Even friendly dogs may scare parent birds away from their nests leaving eggs or chicks exposed to predators or cold, so look out for signs that tell you there may be birds nesting on the ground and what to do to keep them safe. For more info check out: Wagi-do-code

At this time of year we normally visit some of the lovely places where dogs can have a really good off-lead run, away from heaths and other habitats where dogs need to stay on the path or on-lead because of birds who nest on the ground including some very rare species (site rules vary so do check).

The ‘Out & About’ pages on our website has information on some of the dog friendliest walking places in Dorset including Upton Country Park, Canford Park SANG, Bog Lane SANG and Riversmeet, all dog-friendly areas where dogs can enjoy more free ranging walks at this time of year! Lots of other dog-friendly places listed too as local alternatives.

Dogs have twelve separate muscles that control the movement of their ears, so now you know how they get them into all sorts of funny angles!

Enjoy the day...but make sure the chocolate is well away from doggy noses! It's very toxic for dogs and cats as it contains a substance called theobromine, so keep your Easter goodies well out of reach.

@hillside_vets_ has a great post on some common dangers that are around over Easter and there's more information on the Blue Cross website https://www.bluecross.org.uk/pet-advice/easter-dangers-dogs
