Our mischievous little mate Nicholas the Nicklin Way elf has decided he’s now the official “Kennel Release Officer.” 😂🐶
Caught on video flying in like, “Don’t worry, buddy, I know a guy.”
Next thing you know, the dog’s out, the elf’s proud, and we’re questioning our entire security system. 🤦♀️🤣
Who gave him this much power?! 🎅✨

🔴Protect the paws!
These hot summer days you might find yourself struggling to walk on the pathways or roads without your shoes.
It’s the same for your dog!!
Avoid walking your dog during the middle of the day and check the ground before you do. If you cannot leave your hand or bare foot on the path for more than 5 seconds, it’s not the right time for a walk.

Nicholas the Nicklin Way elf has checked into the Great Barrier Reef (…aka our fish tank).
He’s already named the fish, explored to the depths and back, and says he’s “basically a marine biologist now.” Meanwhile the fish are filing noise complaints. 🌊 🐠😂
