This is a fantastic opportunity for pet owners to get their furry friends checked over by trained professionals and ensure they’re in good health. 

As pet owners, we all know how important it is to keep our furry friends safe and secure. That’s why we’re thrilled to announce that the RSPCA will be offering free micro-chipping for dogs and cats on our open day. Micro-chipping is a quick and easy way to ensure that your pet can be identified if they ever get lost or stolen. The process is completely painless and can be done in just a few minutes. This is a fantastic opportunity to take advantage of this important service, and it’s all completely free!

The RSPCA is a well-respected animal welfare organization, and we’re proud to have them as part of our open day. Be sure to stop by their stand and say hello!

Is it free?

This event is a fantastic opportunity for pet lovers to experience the broad and interesting world of pet care, and what’s even more incredible is that it’s absolutely free to attend – but that’s not all!  Customers who come on the day can also expect to receive fantastic freebies and special discounts that will make their visit even more memorable and rewarding.

Animal Behaviourist

What is an animal behaviourist?

If you’re a pet owner, you may have heard of an animal behaviourist, but you may not be entirely sure what they do. In simple terms, an animal behaviourist is an expert who studies animal behaviour, including the ways in which animals communicate, interact with each other, and respond to various stimuli in their environment.

Typically, animal behaviourists work with pets and their owners to address behavioural issues such as aggression, anxiety, or fear. They can also assist pet owners in developing training plans and methods to improve the behaviour and overall well-being of their pets.

Who is Dr Roger Mugford?

Dr. Roger Mugford is a well-known and respected animal behaviourist based in the United Kingdom, with a career spanning decades. His expertise lies in understanding and improving the behaviour of animals, particularly dogs. 

Dr. Mugford earned his degree in psychology from the University of Southampton and went on to receive a PhD in animal behaviour from the University of Nottingham. With his extensive knowledge and experience, he founded The Company of Animals, a top-tier pet training and behaviour company. The Company of Animals provides a range of high-quality products and services to improve pet behaviour and strengthen the bond between pets and their owners.

Dr. Mugford’s reputation precedes him, and his clients have included even the Queen’s beloved corgis. His innovative methods and commitment to improving the lives of pets have made him a highly sought-after expert in his field.
