Well done to last night's newest graduates of SPPOTs Foundation Clicker Course, Luna, Teddy and Fig! They have all done so well these last few weeks, and the engagement you have all built with your dogs has been amazing to watch 🐾
Teddy and Fig also accomplished their Puppy and Foundation Awards with Luna showing everyone how the agility practice was done!
We still have spaces available for next weeks course starting the 2nd April, which can be booked online via the website: https://sppot.co.uk/dog-puppy-training/

You may remember the photos of the area behind the SPPOT building a few months ago, when we removed the huge old hedge and discovered this huge area.
We decided to turn this into a Community Garden and we're really hoping that our local community will get involved with the project.
We've started the orchard area by planting several fruit trees and we're grassing that half too. With some seating and further planting, it'll be a lovely area to sit and watch the world go by
The other half is a wheelchair accessible allotment really and we hope to grow plenty of edibles and flowers.
It will all be wildlife friendly with plenty of features to actively encourage birds, insects and hedgehogs etc
We really hope to make new green fingered friends through our community garden so please get in touch if you can volunteer time or donate plants or equipment.
Huge thanks go to Sandy's Landscaping for a professional, knowledgeable, skilled, prompt, safe and friendly service. We cannot recommend you highly enough and look forward to the development of our wildflower and pond area next 🎉

So much was achieved in our Community Garden this week - but all is not as it may seem......
Jayne didn't do all the digger work 🤔
Erin didn't build the planters 🤔
They did drink tea, eat cake and have fun though, because it was Jayne's last day working at SPPOT 😭
She's going back to Norfolk after 18 months with us here in our funny, amazing, hard working little corner of Pembrokeshire.
We will miss our funny, amazing, hard working Jayne so much, but so glad to have known and worked with you ❤️
Much love from everyone at SPPOT xx

SPPOT - Supporting People & Pets through Opportunity & Training
SPPOT is a unique social enterprise offering dogs and their human families, a highly affordable, award winning dog walking service across Pembrokeshire and high quality daycare for dogs.
We are able to embed positive reward based training into our dog walking and daycare services, because all our staff and volunteers are themselves qualified and accredited in dog care, training and welfare.
SPPOT is an Agored Cymru Recognised Centre, delivering accredited training courses in canine training and welfare for adults and young people who experience barriers to work and education. This enables trainees to become part of SPPOT’s team as Volunteer Dog Walkers who walk dogs all over Pembrokeshire and K9 Keyworkers who volunteer their time at our dedicated headquarters in Haverfordwest providing high quality daycare for dogs.
The dog walking & daycare are offered at a competitive rates for the general public with a significant concession for vulnerable people in the community. Thus we can bring together the needs of two people, through shared care of a dog, benefiting both people and the dog.
Dogs are scientifically proven to be of significant health and social benefit to people, therefore SPPOT’s progressive enterprise model will reduce dependence on health and social care services which are already under strain. People also have the capacity to reduce the suffering and neglect of dogs.
Society in the UK is still geared towards fully able people and it remains incredibly difficult for disabled people to find truly flexible, supportive employment. In order to claim government benefit, people with long term disabilities and illnesses must focus on what they cannot do, in order to qualify for money to live.
SPPOT focuses on what people can do, for example, we will focus on a person’s ability to work six hours a week for eight months of the year. The current mainstream system simply rejects people who cannot work 48 weeks of the year.
The SPPOT Team has enormous collective experience and wide ranging skills and fully understands the requirements of commercial business and also traditional health and social care services but believes there needs to be a fundamental shift in the UK’s attitude to people who have long term barriers to full employment, towards ‘can train’, ‘can learn’, ‘can work’ and ‘can help others’. The SPPOT Team are successfully demonstrating this every day, through delivery of robust, high quality, outcomes driven services for people and dogs.
