Amazing giveaway from our friends!!

**NOW CLOSED**

We know that so many dogs struggle with fireworks, we know because so many of you book to get away in November and the end of December in some of our quietest cottages, where it's unlikely that any big bangs happen.

We want to give one lucky person a chance to actually relax not only next November, but also this NYE!

🎆HOW TO ENTER:

I want to know, if your dog were Prime Minister for the day, what exact rule would they bring in about fireworks?

Comment: “If my dog were Prime Minister for the day, they would make this rule about fireworks…”

(We already know some dogs would ban them, regulate them, move them to the moon, or insist all fireworks were replaced with sausages.😁)

🎆WHAT ARE THE PRIZES

🏠A firework-free ERC stay at West Cottage for Friday 6th - Monday 9th November 2026. Surrounded by fields, during the day you can walk to the beach via a private track, in the evenings you can relax in front of the woodburner and listen to the sound of silence knowing your dog can relax too.

A calming bundle from our friends at Pawd Drinks posted to arrive for THIS New Year’s Eve - you will receive:

💤PAWD Calming: 100% natural powder supplement scientifically developed to ease anxiety in stressful situations, such as when fireworks go off
💤PAWD Calming Collar: Offers a natural, vet-recommended solution to help dogs manage stress and anxiety in everyday life.
💤A metal scoop to serve!

🕯️And from our friends at Folly & Wild a pet friendly and vet approved calming candle and reed defuser set - with essential oils which will benefit both your pets AND you!

I'd really love it if you could support our friends who have offered up their generous prizes by popping over to their pages and taking a look at their products, they are small brands too! And feel free to like & share this post if you know someone who's dog really struggles with fireworks.

Competition ends Monday 15th December and the winner will be chosen by the PAWD Drinks team so I can't be biased!

There's definitely a difference between dogs welcome and dogs allowed don't you think?

I love that the boys not only get a warm welcome and treats galore at but they also have a dog fleece for the boys to settle on!

What's your best dog welcoming experience? K x

Love that Shadow has got his moment in the spotlight!

My job might not always be easy (sporadic income? Yep, still stressful 😅), but I wouldn’t trade it for the world.

Not only do I get to work with brilliant brands, I get to meet people who love what they do as much as I do. And as soppy as it sounds, that fills my emotional cup right to the top.

One recent collaboration I adored was working with Folly & Wild to bring The Whippet candle & room sprays to life as part of their pet friendly dog breed collection. Seeing someone else be just as passionate about their craft was genuinely lovely - the whole process was a joy.

You helped pick the scent, and now it’s ready for you to bring a little bit of Shadow into your life. It’s a gorgeous blend of Sea Salt, Jasmine, Coconut, and just a whisper of Pine. (If you’re not a pine fan, don’t worry, it’s barely there and adds a lovely earthy balance.)

I'm very happy to have a 10% discount code if you want to use it: SHADOW10
