To do this they are exploring different ways to showcase and promote great handling skills and the best possible walking equipment for dogs.

All across the world pet parents entrust their dogs to dog sitters, dog walkers and dog daycare or boarding facilities. So what kind of things should you look for when choosing a sitter or daycare? Why might pet parents use these services and what can the benefits be? What are the warning signs that maybe it isn't the best option for your dog? We chat to Manja Leissner, owner of Qimmiq Lodge in Germany, who has been working in this area for many years. She runs a state-of-the-art daycare and holiday resort facility for dogs which focuses on creating a calm and enriching environment for dogs. Manja is a sought after speaker on this topic and we were thrilled to talk to her about her work.
