Wintery Wanders


Well its been absolutely freezing!

Dartmoor has still continued to beckon us for walkies every day, but the weather has really got to get its act together soon, I'm not sure how much more I can take!

The wind bites at my hands and feet every time I go out to the point that its almost painful. Someone definately needs to invent heated walking boots!

Its a really good job its only me that hates the cold. The dogs couldn't care less. 

Here are a few pictures of them all, taken over the last week.
















Believe it or not, this was Peggy after I groomed her just 4 days ago.

Shes beautiful one moment, and a sludge covered mess the next 😂 still, at least she is having fun!

Lecker Bites

 


We were recently asked to become brand ambassadors for Lecker Bites!

Lecker Bites are a fantastic freeze dried raw food company and their ethos is provide high quality raw food and treats that are nutritionally rich.

As many of you know I am an avid raw feeder and have been for over 15 years. I honestly believe that this is the best way to feed our beloved pets.
NO colourings, NO preservatives, NOTHING extruded and absolutely ZERO E numbers!
I believe that feeding my dogs a 100% raw meat diet is species appropriate and this is something that the Marcasite Poodles gang have a lot of pride in! 

All of my puppies are weaned onto raw food and I am always happy to provide ongoing support if needed. I even run a small Facebook forum for raw feeding - Raw Fed Poodles UK.

Unfortunately, however the concept of raw feeding sometimes falls down when it comes to treats or training snacks. It isn't really possible for hygiene reasons, to carry a bag of raw mince around in my pocket when we go to the Moors for a walk or to training classes. Its also incredibly difficult to travel with raw fed dogs as the food can be difficult to store and spoil very quickly.

This is where Lecker Bites come in!
Lecker Bites produce a high quality raw food, which is nutritionally just as good as raw but has the added convenience of being dry, which makes it perfect for complete meals, treats and more! It really is the perfect combination and I am incredibly proud to be a brand ambassador for a product that I wholeheartedly believe in.
(I would have no qualms whatsoever in turning down a brand ambassador request for a poor quality dog food company!)

Marcasite Poodles can offer an exclusive 10% off all orders from Lecker Bites. You simply have to use the code: MARCASITE10 when placing your order.

You can join their mailing list Here and win freebies.

And for £5 off a £20 or more shop, follow this link: Lecker Bites

I am absolutely certain that you will love Lecker Bites just as much as we do.

Here is a photographs of their products.


Our personal favourite are the chicken herb cubes. They contain 96% chicken and are fantastic for arthritic dogs like Stanley as the only other ingredients are natural anti-inflammatories such as Devil's Claw and nettle leaves.

As you can see Lecker Bites get the girls' approval. Peggy thinks that they are so good she cannot believe her eyes!
