Newport welcomes Telford Pet Services

Telford Pet Services, which provides dog walking and pet sitting, has selected Newport, Shropshire, for its new base.

The company, run by Keely Needham and Julie Mills, has taken on a new field in Green Lane, where Needham provides training and socialisation sessions – Thoughts for Paws Animal Behaviour and Training. Meanwhile, Mills offers agility training – ‘Woof and Ready Agility’.

Mills told The Shropshire Star: “It’s been catching people’s eye. There’s a right of way, so people walk through and see the classes and watch. We have been inundated with enquiries already.

“Part of having a dog is that a lot of people now want to do a lot more activities with their pets. There are lots of different things you can do with them. With agility, people can come for a taster session to learn how to do it for fun.”

She added: “I just think it’s a nice service for the people of Newport. It gives pet owners something meaningful to do with their dogs.”
