Blue up your feed! 🫐

Did you know that blueberries aren't just superfoods for humans? They pack a powerful punch for dogs, too! I absolutely love adding these antioxidant-rich berries to Indi's diet because they are packed with antioxidants, vitamins C and K, and fibre. Blueberries help support Indi’s immune system and overall health.

Indi enjoyed a scrumptious snack in her turquoise Lickimat UFO bowl, featuring:

✅ Coconut milk and Greek yogurt mix, providing healthy fats and probiotics
✅ Blueberries and blackberries for a berry blast of antioxidants
✅ Fresh dill and nasturtium leaves for a hint of greens
✅ Mackerel bites & crumbs for a dose of omega-3
✅ Bee pollen and seaweed topper for extra nutrition
✅ Viola flowers for a sprinkle of floral fun
✅ Hortensia flowers & butterfly cookies from

3 Reasons Why You Should Include Sardines in Your Dog's Diet

Wondering what makes sardines such a fantastic choice for your dog? Here’s the scoop:

1️⃣ Sardines are loaded with omega-3 fatty acids, promoting healthy skin and a shiny coat.

2️⃣ These small fish are great for heart health, thanks to their high levels of EPA and DHA.

3️⃣ The omega-3s in sardines help reduce inflammation, aiding in joint health and mobility.

Think all slow feeders are the same? Think again!

🌟 Why we feel the Lickimat Slomo is the unsung hero of enrichment meals:

The Lickimat Slomo isn't just another slow feeder; it's a versatile platform that transforms mealtime into a fun, engaging puzzle. Great for handling a mix of food types—from mince and dry food to liquids—it's designed to slow down eating and reduce stress, making each mealtime both mentally stimulating and lasting longer. Plus, it's super easy to clean, which we absolutely love! Despite its practical design, some say it's tricky to make meals look 'pretty' on this mat, but we've embraced the challenge, and I'm so happy with the results! Plus, it kept Indi happily engaged for a good 20 minutes—a truly impressive feat!

Today’s gourmet lineup on her Lickimat:

💜 Big Dog Raw combo
💜 Greek Yogurt blended with freshly mashed strawberries.
💜 Crisp apple slices, raspberries, alfalfa sprouts, and snow pea sprouts.
💜 mantis shrimp and crumbled mackerel bites
💜 Viola flowers and adorable little flower cookies for that extra burst of colour and flavour

Struggling to get your dog to pose for that perfect photo?

You're not alone! But guess what? With a few simple training tricks, you can turn those photo disasters into insta-worthy captures!

Here are my top tips for training for a perfect photo shoot:

✅ Master a Stay or Wait: Mastering a solid 'stay' or 'wait' cue is essential. It ensures your dog remains in that perfect pose long enough for you to capture the shot, even from a distance.

✅ Don't forget to train for Distractions: Life’s full of surprises, especially with dogs. Training your dog to stay calm and focused amidst distractions helps ensure that outside influences won’t ruin your perfect photo op.

✅ Get your dogs undivided Attention: Training your dog to respond to a 'look' cue combines their desire for the treat with the action of looking directly at the camera, perfect for capturing those picture-perfect portraits. Interesting sounds can also encourage cute ear positions, adding character to your photos. Using their favourite toy or treat to guide their gaze can also help capture their most attentive expressions.

What's your dog's favourite snack?

Indi absolutely adores chicken feet, and I'm right there with her! I love that they're not just a tasty treat, infact they offer a host of health benefits that make me feel great about giving them to her:

✅ The rough texture is perfect for scraping away plaque and tartar, promoting optimum dental health

✅ Packed with glucosamine, they're essential for supporting strong, healthy joints and helping prevent arthritis.

✅ Chicken feet are more than a treat; they're a health boost, rich in protein, calcium, and collagen for strong bones, joints, and vitality.

It's incredible how something so simple can be so beneficial. That’s why chicken feet are a regular feature in Indi's snack rotation.

Now, we’d love to hear from you! What’s your dog’s go-to treat? Share with us in the comments below! 👇
