This week marks Mental Health Awareness Week! As many of you know, I struggle with my mental health a lot, due to a number of conditions! However, over the years, I have found many ways to help deal with my down days! One of them being out in the wild with all kinds of animals! Something Animed has discovered too through new research!
Good Morning Lovelies,
Anyone else love to do a pre-Christmas bit of pampering? I am a huge fan of making myself look good for the big day, even if it is only done at home. However, this year it is all about the other people or animals in your life. Yes, it is time to celebrate the dogs in your life by giving them the ultimate festive pampering this Christmas! All thanks to Scrubbies!
Made entirely from natural vegan ingredients, Scrubbies is an incredible brand, who have made all the skin, bathing and healthy grooming products your pooch needs. From detangling sprays to gorgeous shampoos, there is an item for every animal, made by experts within the industry.
Kindly, the team offered me the chance to try one of their products, which was the revitalising shampoo. Scented with wonderful peppermint and rosemary smells, it was like a Christmas tree wrapped up in a bottle. Upon first opening the box it came in, I could smell the rich aromas instantly. Turning to my mum to let her smell it, we both agreed that we would happily use the products on ourselves! We have been good though and left it to the dogs to review.
With two Cocker Spaniels on hand, we allowed them to get really wet and muddy on their walks. We mean literally rolling in it muddy. Quickly getting them into our downstairs bathroom, we grabbed the shower head and shampoo, before getting down to the cleaning.
Using only a small amount on their fur and skin at first, we were surprised by how bubbly and clean it got. Honestly, a pea sized amount went really far on these two furry creatures. With mum handling one and a neighbour the other, the dogs smelt wonderful in little to no time. A fact that made us all super impressed. Even after hours from having been cleaned, we could still smell the refreshing aroma on them.
Another big bonus was the way their fur felt. The dogs are very well kept, so we don’t have any problems with their skin, but one of them has had issues with their paws. The shampoo seemed to somehow make them feel less dry, which was great. Especially when it can be prone to sometimes splitting, something the vets are aware of. As well, their fur felt extra soft, as we brushed and stroked the pair.
At £10 a bottle, this shampoo is truly worth it. The quality and outcomes from it made me expect it to be priced higher. Many other brands would have been. Upon seeing how much of a difference it has made, I now want to make a full stocking for Christmas Day for them. Although with the smells that come out of the products, I think it will be more of a treat for us.
Scrubbies are a fantastic brand that I couldn’t recommend enough lovelies! I was so happy by the results I have told so many pet owners about it. Honestly, it is a pet friendly gift that will just keep on giving this Christmas and beyond! Head to their website lovelies to see more of their collection, prices and amazing story. You will be very impressed!
From today, I will no longer be the only one pampered at Christmas! Oh no, my animals will too! Winner winner, Christmas dinner! Or well, pamper aha!

A few months ago, I roped in my neighbours dogs and new puppies to help trial some new dog food. You lovelies responded amazingly and it allowed me to be given another opportunity to put HugMyDog’s new Venison filled ready meals to the test.
Containing organic blackberries, seasonal vegetables and only the best prime Venison, their new meals are full to the brim with essential protein, vitamins and minerals and 100% British ingredients. Frozen to help maintain their ingredients and to keep them fresher for longer, each dish can be popped into the microwave for a few minutes before being cooled and served to your dog/dogs.
Testing them out on her two spaniels again, my neighbour found that the meals went down a treat. After leaving the meals to defrost in the fridge for 24 hours, they simply popped them into their microwaveable bowls and after the set cooking time, allowed the animals to dig in. Something they truly did.
Venison is an unusual food for dogs, but hers loved it and when we watched them tucking into the dishes, we were really impressed. My neighbours stated that they would probably keep or buy the meals as a treat for their animals, instead of having them as a main meal all the time, but they would definitely continue to feed their animals with them. Especially, with the great quality products they were getting and the good portion sizes too. They were really happy with the way that their dogs reacted to the meals overall. It left their pets full and happy, which is all you can really hope for when it comes to pet food!
Definitely one to buy when treating your animals, the HugMyDog pet food company knows exactly how to make the whole family happy. Even more so with their latest Venison editions. From early puppy stages to adult dogs, there is literally food suitable for all types, which can be found on their website. It’s a barking good deal to be had!
