    Shop recommendations

    Hello me again :)
    I was wondering if there are any shops/ online places (hidden gems) that you would recommend that I can try out other than pets at home and amazon and generic places. I will be searching locally as well but I like going by word of mouth :)

    When you are checking out your local shops, don't forget the garden centers. Many of them have pet sections and I've found have quite a range that I haven't seen elsewhere. The other advantage is that you can take your dog with you and most are happy for you to try stuff on to make sure it fits

    Equestrian shops are pretty good and most sell stuff for dogs.
    A lot depends on what shops you have near you and what you're looking for.

    I have bought most of Tikva's stuff from AliExpress. Cheapo stuff but surprising the good value. I do not have a local store I can get to and there are no equestrian shops or garden centres anywhere here.

    Yes there is the big store at the Pension but they do not have much and buy the time I pay for the taxi fare it is not worth it for what little they have.

    AliExpress is also postage free.

    It really depends on what you are looking for, as for me i have bought a tracker for my dog since she really likes to go around the vicinity :)

    Or just bring it out a bit at a time in the hopes it won't be noticed and then, of course, it's coming up to Christmas and they have to have Christmas presents don't they? :)
