Making this dream a reality comes at a cost, so sharing all platforms and crowdfunding link really can make a huge difference for start up. 

My main focus now is the correct dog safe flooring!

A rough calculation for flooring quotes- this floor has to be sealed rubber flooring to help keep waterproof and eliminate unwanted  smells. 

Extremely vital to get this correct early on! 

Flooring quotes being considered do vary pending on thickness and suitability for the plans ahead.  

Heavy-duty 10–12mm

*£3,475–£4,572 this is without installation*

At lowest costing £3,475, along with crowdfunding already raised would still  need £2416 to get the vital flooring down so it is safe,  non slip for doggies and hoomans! 

Please share link forward to gather a crowd to fund towards the vital flooring so I can get Paws on it 🐾🥰

Every Share, like and pledge helps towards Phase one and beyond! 

Thankyou to everyone who has pledged on crowdfunding,  offered support,  helped gather items required for the build. A full list is available for those local area who wish to gather items for build - email [email protected] for all information please 🙏 

For new visitors to our crowdfunding page- here's our dream...........

I am Stacey, experienced fully licenced  homeboarder and dog walker based in Essex. Mother to 4 big hoomans and 3 Whippets! 

As a professional within Dog Care for several years  I am aware of the increasingly negative narrative surrounding dogs and their owners from some social media sources - whether it's dog on dog attacks, Animal neglect- Dogs left in cars on hot days,Dogs barking causing nuisance in neighbours,  Dogs off lead not under control.  Poo waste being disguarded in the wrong manner. Owners whose dogs behaviour needs support  before they are left unable to cope and rehome,  Dogs on the streets,  so loved but owners don't have knowledge of how to access support available to their only consent companion. Dogs not being Excerised correctly for their age and breed.....affecting their health list goes on and on!

It's no wonder some owners feel completely overwhelmed on what to do for the best and where to turn. There appears to be an increase in people who now fear dogs and will avoid any interaction.  Most dog walkers enjoy a stop and chat when out, but increasing fear of dog interactions can make this impossible and for some humans their dog walk might be the only time they see another person causing further isolation within communities.  

Always nice to say hello! 

Dogs are the most wonderfully loyal companions to humans ever! 

For those owners who have been blessed to have a loyal dog only for their dogs life to end I want to offer bereavement support with trainned therapist, losing your dog is a grief process unlike any other- allowing space to be fully heard, supported.

I want build a place for communities to come together!

THE DOG HUB

Where dogs thrive, owners connect and communities feel better.

The Vision

We are creating a unique, inclusive dog activity and wellbeing centre designed to bring dogs and their owners together in a safe, welcoming and accessible environment.

Our vision is to create a dog advice and activity hub where people can come with their dogs to exercise, learn, socialise, train and have fun — while also building friendships and a stronger community.

This isn't just about giving dogs somewhere to play. It's about improving the relationship between people and their dogs and creating a supportive community around animal welfare.”

Dogs get happier. Owners feel supported. Communities become stronger.

The centre will welcome people regardless of age, ability, gender, race or religion, creating a genuinely inclusive environment.
