Dog food and supplies in Ningi. Diet comes first.

Most of what we see at the counter starts with what a dog is eating, so that's where we start too. We keep Raw4Paws and Proudi raw diets frozen in store, alongside quality dry food, single-ingredient treats, flea, tick and worming treatments, and the collars, leads and beds to go with them.

Caring for your dog

Dogs are family. Whether you’re a first-time owner or you’ve had dogs all your life, here’s what we cover with customers every week. If you’re unsure about anything, come in and ask.

Nutrition: fuelling your dog's health

A balanced diet is the foundation of your dog’s health. Food suited to your dog’s age, size and activity level supports their energy and overall condition.

  • Puppies need nutrient-rich diets to support growth and development.
  • Adult dogs do best on balanced meals that hold a healthy weight and steady energy.
  • Senior dogs may need diets that support ageing joints and organs.

Always keep fresh water available, and talk to your vet about any special dietary needs. Browse our raw dog food and dry dog food, or ask us in store.

Exercise: keeping your dog active and engaged

Regular activity matters for your dog’s body and mind. It helps prevent weight gain, reduces problem behaviours and strengthens the bond between you.

  • Daily walks give essential stimulation and socialisation.
  • Play with toys or games like fetch keeps your dog mentally sharp.
  • Agility or obedience classes offer both physical and mental challenges.

Match the routine to your dog’s breed, age and health so it stays safe.

Grooming: appearance and health

Regular grooming keeps your dog looking good, helps their skin stay healthy and lets you spot problems early.

  • Brushing removes loose hair, prevents matting and spreads natural oils.
  • Bathing with a dog-specific shampoo keeps the coat clean and reduces odours.
  • Nail trimming prevents discomfort and mobility problems.
  • Ear cleaning lowers the risk of infection, especially in breeds prone to ear trouble.

Grooming sessions are also a good time to check for parasites, lumps or skin changes. Prefer us to do it? See dog grooming.

Flea, tick or worming due?

Tell us your dog's weight and lifestyle and we'll find the right treatment.

Health care: prevention and vet visits

Prevention goes a long way towards a long, healthy life. Regular vet check-ups and preventive care are part of responsible ownership.

  • Vaccinations protect against common diseases such as distemper and parvovirus.
  • Flea, tick and heartworm prevention is essential.
  • Dental care keeps the mouth healthy and prevents wider problems.
  • Desexing helps with population control and may reduce some health risks.

Watch for changes in behaviour, appetite or energy, and see your vet with any concerns. Our dog health range covers flea, tick and worming treatments.

Training and socialisation

Training and socialisation build a settled, well-behaved dog. Positive reinforcement builds trust and encourages the behaviour you want.

  • Basic commands like sit, stay and come make communication easier.
  • House training sets good habits and prevents accidents.
  • Meeting other dogs and people reduces fear and aggression.
  • Advanced training or dog sports add extra mental stimulation.

Consistency and patience are the keys to success.

A safe and comfortable home

Your dog’s surroundings have a big effect on their wellbeing.

  • Secure fencing prevents escapes and keeps hazards out.
  • Comfortable bedding gives them their own place to rest.
  • Safe toys provide entertainment and prevent boredom.
  • Shade and shelter keep them comfortable in all weather.

Check your home and yard regularly for dangers such as toxic plants or chemicals within reach. Find beds, bowls and toys in dog accessories.

Travel: safety on the go

  • Seat-belt harnesses or crates prevent injuries in the car.
  • ID tags and microchipping improve the chances of getting your dog back if they’re lost.
  • Getting your dog used to travel reduces anxiety and car sickness.

Understanding your dog's signals

Reading your dog’s body language helps you respond early when something’s not right.

  • Tail wagging can mean excitement, but the position and speed tell you more.
  • Whining or barking can signal a need, discomfort or stress.
  • Changes in appetite or sleep can point to a health concern.

A lifelong commitment

Caring for a dog is a lifelong commitment that brings a great deal of joy and companionship. Get the food, exercise, grooming, health care, training and home right, and your dog is set up for a long, happy life. We’re here to help with every part of it.

Ring ahead. We'll put it aside.

Call the store, tell us what your dog needs and we'll have it ready at the counter, subject to stock availability. Frozen food stays frozen until you get here.
