My background: South Coast Fairy Dog Mother

Our first family golden retriever had ‘a bad tummy’ and my dad used to have to give her a special diet. 

She was an amazing dog, and after her, she was irreplaceable. My family couldn’t get another dog after the heartbreak of losing her to cancer. 

Growing up with horses and competing at everything from showing to polo, I learnt first hand what it took to be responsible, how to learn and treat animals and the importance of the right feed. When I was in my late teens, early twenties I used to look after a family member’s border terrier Milo. We had our own little games we’d play, and he was so fun and sweet and amazing. I found out that he had ‘food issues’ and while he would ‘run off’ he’d always come back. He was even hit by cars twice and had a hip replacement with the one and only Noel Fitz-Patrick - famously a border terrier lover.

Moving to London, to pursue a career in digital marketing, a colleague told me about a cool little start up called Borrow My Doggie. He borrowed a dog called Frank and would tell us all the fun stories they'd been up to with him, so, I thought I’d check it out… Enter Mr. Wiggins…
