Is your pooch prepared to win?
This year we are holding a fun Dog Show here at Speedgate for all the family to enjoy, but is your pooch prepared to win? Read on for some of our best products that will be sure to have him on top form ready for a great day out!
Grooming
You want your dog to be super smart for his show to give him the best possible chance of winning a frilly! Use a good shampoo to combat grease, brighten coats and remove those tangles. The Ancol Lavender Shampoo will leave his skin feeling clean, fragrant and moisturised, or for a more tough shampoo, try Animology Fox Poo Shampoo for a deep clean to remove dirt and odour without removing the coats essential oils. Once he’s clean, use the Weatherbeeta Dog Bag to help him dry before the next pamper stage!
For those with long coats, try the Miki Easy Grooming Combi Brush to help detangle and shine your pets coat for a gentle action. To keep his nails nicely trimmed, use the Mikki Nail Clipper that has precision cutting blades with a safety stop to prevent over cutting.
Accessories
Are your hounds’ collar and lead looking a bit shabby? The Digby & Fox Rolled Leather Collar is super soft and smart! And the matching lead has a padded handle for comfort, as well as a brass ring that allows it to be halved in length. For something a little different, the Rosewood Tweed Collar and matching lead are embellished with neat details whilst maintaining a luxury feel. For more control whilst on the show ground, you may want your dog in a harness. The Dog & Co Harness has soft padding for comfort, as well as reflective bands for safety.
Remember to bring water for your pet as they will most certainly enjoy a refreshment after strutting their stuff in front of their competitors. The RAC Travel Bowl has a wide brim to prevent water from spilling whilst you are out and about, or the Rosewood Travel Bowl is collapsible, making it super handy to bring with you.
Rewards
Whether your canine friend wins or not, all the best dogs deserve a reward! For those that like their food, we have a huge range of treats in store. Try the Nature’s Menu training treats for quality pocket sized rewards that even come in a re-sealable pack to keep them extra fresh. Does your dog suffer with smelly breath? The Forthglade Fresh Breath treats are made with a mix of natural herbs so you can reward your dog and keep his breath fresh at the same time. Maybe you would prefer to treat him with something that will keep him busy for longer – the Hollings Tripe Sticks are 100% natural, nutritionally great, and super appetising for fussy feeders.
For those that would prefer a toy for their efforts, our range includes balls, ropes, squeakers, teddys and much more! The Kong Durasoft Ball has super strength and flexibility for those with a strong jaw. Featuring varied textures and a great bounce, it is ideal for excitable dogs. For smaller pets, our Unicorn Dog Toy is designed for the smaller mouth and is nice and soft for the more delicate dog.
Lastly, don’t forget to bring some doggy poop bags to clean up after your pooch – the Flexi Multi Box is ideal for storing bags and treats too. Now you are prepared, download the schedule and entry form before spaces run out!
