Bruce’s helps buck Valentine’s blues

Doggy daycare brand Bruce’s will be hosting pop-up ‘kissing booths’ across the UK in the run-up to Valentine’s Day, offering a healthy serving of kisses and hugs from one of its furry friends.

Studies have found that 1 in 10 adults feel lonely, insecure, or depressed on Valentine’s Day, and 40% generally associate the holiday with negative emotions. However, petting a dog has been scientifically proven to boost serotonin and dopamine levels, helping relieve anxiety and depression.

The booths will be manned by some of the Bruce’s team who will be on hand to answer any questions on dog ownership and its benefits and discuss the Bruce’s offering. These will be appearing in Solihull, London, Surrey, Sussex, and more.

Bruce’s currently operates nine sites across the UK including the most recently opened Bruce’s Solihull.
