Bittersweet Goodbyes: Lucy’s Puppies Head Home
It’s hard to believe that the time has already come… Lucy’s beautiful puppies are getting ready to head off to their forever homes this week. It feels like just yesterday they were tiny little newborns, completely dependent on Mum, and now they’re confident, playful, and full of personality. Watching them grow has been such a joy - from their first wobbly steps to their cheeky little games with each other, every stage has been something special. This week we did their final p

Understanding cavoodle coat types
One of the most common questions we get from families is about coat types, what they look like, how they feel, and what they mean for grooming and maintenance. Cavoodles can have a range of coat types, depending on their genetics: Curly (double curl) – most similar to a Poodle coat, dense and soft Wavy (single curl) – a soft, fluffy coat with gentle movement Straight (zero curl) – a looser, more natural wave with a silky texture Unfurnished – a smooth, Cavalier-style coat

Learning through play
There’s something so special about watching puppies discover the world, and mealtime is one of our favourite opportunities to turn everyday moments into meaningful learning experiences. In this video, the puppies are enjoying their kibble through enrichment puzzles rather than a standard bowl. While it might look like simple play, this activity is incredibly purposeful and supports their development in so many important ways. Puzzle feeding taps into a puppy’s natural instinc

Lucy’s puppies first bath & pamper!
There is something so special about those early “firsts”… and today was a big one for Lucy’s puppies — their very first bath and pamper session! We were recently offered the opportunity to trial a new product from Dr Zoo by MooGoo , and it felt like the perfect time to introduce it during this milestone moment. From the very first wash, we were so impressed. The shampoo is made using gentle, natural cleansers derived from coconut and glucose , making it beautifully soft on de

We are so excited to share a little update on beautiful Waves
Her ultrasound has shown 8 tiny conceptuses , which is always such an incredible moment for us. That said, as with all pregnancies, it’s important to remember that this number isn’t guaranteed, nature can be unpredictable, and sometimes litters can reduce before birth. For now, though, we are feeling very hopeful and grateful. This pairing with Marley is a particularly special one. Genetically, these two have the potential to produce an amazing range of coat colours , possibl

Today’s enrichment activities!
Today was a big day in our puppy enrichment program, with a few thoughtful changes designed to gently stretch the puppies’ confidence and curiosity. We introduced a brand new bed in the crate, helping them build a positive association with a calm, safe resting space. Early crate experiences like this are so important, not just for future training, but for helping puppies learn how to settle, self-regulate, and feel secure in their own little “den.” Their play area has also be

Why we’ve fallen in love with 5 Hounds by Dr Will
If you’ve been following along recently, you’ve probably noticed just how excited our dogs have been at mealtimes… and honestly, we don’t blame them! We recently made the switch to 5 Hounds by Dr. Will , and it’s safe to say it has been a complete game changer in our house. The video really says it all—there’s something so satisfying about watching every single bowl get licked clean and seeing that genuine excitement from all of them. What we love about 5 Hounds is that it’s

Lucy’s puppies’ first taste of “solid” food.
A very exciting milestone in Lucy’s nursery this week… the puppies have had their very first taste of “solid” food! Up until now, Lucy has been doing an incredible job nourishing her babies, and they are all thriving under her care. But as they grow, their little bodies are ready to begin the transition to food alongside mum, and what better way to start than with a gentle, puppy-friendly mousse. This first introduction is always more about exploration than eating. There were

One day old and thriving 🥰
We’re so excited to share that Lucy’s beautiful puppies are now one day old, and they are already doing wonderfully. All little ones are feeding well, gaining weight, and settling into those sleepy newborn snuggles that make this stage so special. Lucy is attentive, gentle, and rarely leaves their side, keeping everyone warm, clean, and well cared for. It’s always incredible to watch those early bonding moments as she learns each puppy’s little sounds and rhythms. Over the co

Alfie’s first groom!
At 11 weeks old, Alfie had his very first grooming experience, a gentle introduction to the sights, sounds and sensations that come with a lifetime of coat care. Early grooming experiences are incredibly important for puppies, especially before the 12-week learning and socialisation window really ramps up. This period is when pups are most open to new experiences, and positive, low-pressure exposure helps shape how they feel about things like grooming tables, clippers, dryer
