Our Weekend at Maidenhead Festival

We had such a lovely weekend at Maidenhead Festival this year. The weather was absolutely boiling hot so we were having to drink buckets of water to stay hydrated and out doggie icecreams went down a treat with the local fluffy guests.

There was loads of great food stalls, a beach, fairground rides, live music and great activities all day for all the family to enjoy.

We were giving our free doggie biscuits to all the dogs and even had a cool bowl of ice water for them to drink after their walk around the park.

We were selling some of out handmade products and even had a free grooming advice drop in clinic where you could ask us any questions. We had free information sheets to give out about coat care and how to stay flee and tick free this summer and had our magic tools for a brushing demonstration. 

Bear was there to meet his adoring fans dressed as a pirate. He loved all the fuss that was made of him but spent the majority of the day asleep in his shady spot.

He even enjoyed a doggie icecream and a few ice cubes to cool himself down.

Once again we'd like to thank the organisers of the event for including us for a second year running, and also say thank you to all of our supporters who came down to see us during the weekend. It was lovely to see friends, family and customers enjoying themselves at yet another fantastic festival.

See you there next year!
