When we adopted our staffy, Beth, she had separation anxiety. I did a lot of research into how I could help her to be a more relaxed, happier dog, and came across acupressure for animals. It can be used for so many health conditions and emotional issues, and just from a gentle touch.
I had made a hobby of photography, mainly wildlife photography as a way to unwind at the weekend. I was very lucky to live in a house backing on to a river and with a nature reserve just along the river.
I always knew that I wanted to do something more with the skills that I had acquired over the years, another business or vocation that would be my own creation. After falling in love with our cockapoo puppy Henry (now coming up for two years old), and looking back and realising how much ‘dog stuff’ we had bought since we brought him home, I realised that this was the path I wanted to take in some fashion.
