Pooches at Manchester and Cheshire Dogs Home have been treated to their own dog-friendly Christmas movie sleepover.
Four legged residents, including Betty and Poppy the Pomeranians, Alania the dachshund, Babs the greyhound, Rocky the beagle, Sammy the Labrador and Olive the whippet, snuggled up for their sleepover, where they enjoyed snacking on dog-friendly popcorn and ‘pawsecco’ – all while watching every canine’s favourite Christmas film, The Snowman and the Snowdog.
The sleepover and movie-night came courtesy of Silentnight Pet Beds, to celebrate the expert sleep brand and charity partnering throughout 2021. Although, as with many a sleepover, the snacks and making mischief proved much more popular than the movie!
Silentnight Pet Beds’ partnership means the dog’s home charity has access to the full range of specialist pet beds whenever required throughout the year to ensure its residents get the best night’s sleep possible.
A spokesperson for Silentnight Pet Beds, Hayley Chaytor, said: “Sleep is an essential part of pets’ lives – and the residents of Manchester and Cheshire Dogs Homes need it more than most, particularly if they come from difficult backgrounds or have sadly been previously abandoned.
“With over seven decades of experience in creating sleep havens for humans, we wanted to make sure that our Pet Beds cater to the ideal night’s slumber for the nation’s four legged sleepers too – and we’re proud that these products will now provide sleep solutions for the fantastic Manchester and Cheshire Dogs Home, whose staff and volunteers work tirelessly to support the recovery and rehoming of abandoned pooches.”
Silentnight’s revolutionary range of Pet Beds cater to both cats and dogs, whatever their individual needs. The range comprises of three collections – Ultrabounce, Airmax and Orthopaedic – and each uses the same trusted technology as Silentnight’s human bedding and are available in sizes small, medium and large.
The technology works well for all four-legged friends but is especially relevant for residents at Manchester and Cheshire Dogs Home, where the dogs often have issues with their joints or mobility due to their lives pre-rescue. For example, retired or abandoned racing greyhounds often have issues such as hip dysplasia due to over exercise and will find that the features used within the make-up of the Orthopaedic beds can greatly improve their comfort levels and quality of sleep.
