Dogs
Put together after eleven years of watching new owners buy six things they need and four they do not. Dimitris walked in from the AAWS shelter with no idea where to start; this is what Eleni handed him.
What we stock
Life-stage kibble with the calcium-to-phosphorus ratio a growing skeleton needs.
Fitted in the shop, and swapped free when it is outgrown in the first three months.
Stuffed and frozen, it is the tool that gets you through the settling nights.
Pheromone spray for the first nights away from the litter.
Buying guide
A quiet, undemanding puppy in week one is usually a puppy that has not unpacked yet. The real personality arrives around day twelve, often along with a destroyed cushion.
Budget for a behaviourist as well as a vet. Separation work in ninety-second increments is unglamorous and it is where the year is actually spent.
Eleni does Wednesday consultations at Exarchia by appointment. Petros runs the small-animal range at Cholargos.
