Written on 13th March 2010. Posted in Dicky Dog Blog.

Wow- what a first day We had a leisurely start compared to trade friends who at to be at the NEC at 7am this morning but we met some fantastic people, made some great sales and met dogs i’d never even heard of. I could tell it was going to be a good day when the first person i met in the entrance to the NEC came rushing up after he spotted my Dicky Bag desperate to know where he could get...

Written on 10th March 2010. Posted in Dicky Dog Blog.

Sorry to disappoint you guys, but our large blue beach bag has been so popular we have currently run out of stock. The new shipment should be with us in the next 10-14 days, so i’m afraid you’ll have to continue carrying your bags of dog poo in your hand for a little bit longer or choose one of our other stylish colours. If you can’t be satisfied by any of our other offerings...

The Debate on Compulsory Dog Insurance

Written on 9th March 2010. Posted in Dicky Dog Blog.

I woke up this morning and the first thing I heard on the radio was the news that it has been suggested the way to reduce the incidents of dogs attacking people and other animals is to make every dog owner take out a form of liability insurance. It is now 1pm and frankly I’m sick of hearing everyone and his dog (sorry bad use of the term) giving their views on us dog owners. Surely we are...
