The Paws And Pets Team
Jo Watts
Owner Jo has had a love for animals since a young age, and it is
a family joke that her first word was "Dog". She has also been working with
dogs, rabbits and other animals for the past 7 years, working in a variety of
grooming parlours, pet shops, kennels, charity organisations and from home. She
has done her level one and two in grooming; triple distinction is Animal Care
and Management, Canine first Aid, Pet Store management course. She also has a
passion for Rabbits and their welfare, and is often found campaigning for animal
rights. She owns four rabbits Pepe, Lucy, Lindi, Toots and two dogs, Molly an 8
year old French Cross British Bulldog and Stanley a 2 year old Whippet who often
come on the walks. "There is not a single day that goes by that I appreciate how
lucky I am to be doing what I love and I am very grateful"

Eloise Liebrand
Owner Eloise has had a love and passion for anything of the animal variety. Originally from South Africa Eloise's passions for animals and their welfare can be clearly seen through her work. Currently studying "Think Dog and Talk Dog" to extend her knowledge of canines, she is always finding new ways to top up her knowledge. Eloise is a slave to her son Seb and her two rescued dachshund Maggie and Tess who also join us on the walks. "My dream has to always work with animals and when Jo and I met we were lucky enough to set up Paws and Pets, we hope one day we can own a bit of land and open a rescue centre and kennels. I love the fact that we are always be learning about animals"
Maggie
Maggie is a rescued Dachshund who lives with Eloise, as you can
see from her photo she is a bit if a Pre Madonna, but we can assure you she is an absolute sweetheart and has certainly landed on her paws when Eloise rescued her. "I am very lucky that mum found me and that I get to go out on daily walks with her and all my doggy friends. Sometimes I do find it hard as my little legs find it hard to keep up, I love sleeping on mummy’s lap and generally being pampered by everyone!"

Tess
Tess is Eloise's other rescued dog, she is a dappled long hair Dachshund. She loves nothing more than to go on the walks up in the woods, run around in all the bracken and roll around in the puddles. Totally different to her sister Maggie, Tess is more of a "tomdog".
"I love my walk times getting as dirty as possible. But mum doesnt seem to like this"

Molly Watts
Molly is a 8 year old French X British Bulldog, she responds to her nick names Piggy, Piglet, Moon Pig and Moomin. She is very intelligent, as a puppy she was privileged to join Jo while she was attending Merrist Wood Agricultural College and learnt a lot about animals. She doesn’t see herself as a dog but more of a mentor to new recruits to the Shabby Paws team. She loves food, sleeping, getting as dirty as possible, break dancing and chilling on the sofa watching the world walk past her window.
Stanley
Stanley is a 2 year old Whippet, who’s a little bit of a nutter.
Often found running with other dogs, barking randomly at nothing, stealing food from the kitchen surfaces, terrorising Molly, helping Jo clean out the rabbits by eating the rabbit pooh. He loves include rabbit pooh, food, running and being chased, meeting his sister Luna for some ball catching, sleeping and snuggling up to Jo.
