HIT YOUR STROKE: You can pamper your dog even if they’re not keen on being brushed or bathed.
Setting aside time each day for a stroking session will put a spring in their step and help them feel more like being groomed.
Gently run your hands over the legs and ears, and lift their paws — but only if they don’t object — before building up over the coming days to a gentle brush.
End each grooming with a doggy treat.
FACE FACTS: Some dogs don’t like it if you wash their face, so take a cue from your own dog’s body language.
If they’re OK with it, try dabbing their eyes and the outside of their ears using a damp cloth to gently wipe away dirt.
Brushing their teeth regularly is important to prevent decay.

2 days agoNews 1Comments Off on You’ll find a paradise for families on the Venetian Riviera, says Sinead McIntyre
ITALY is one of my favourite countries to visit. So much so, I got married there 17 years ago.
I love the people, the food, the wine – and the scenery is pretty awesome, too.
Burano is known for its colourful buildings and intricate laceRide the slides at the waterpark at five-star Union Lido Eurocamp
But it can be pricey, especially when you have two teenagers to factor in, who are also often hard to entertain.
Thankfully, we found everything we were after – beautiful beaches, affordable restaurants, activities, water slides and the option to self-cater – at five-star Union Lido Eurocamp.
Getting there is also super-easy: a flight into the bustling Venice Marco Polo airport and a handy bus from outside the terminal that stops right in front of the sprawling campsite and costs £36 for the four of us.
Setting up camp
On arrival, our 13-year-old twins Riley and Harris, husband Alistair and I are quickly checked in and transported by golf buggy to our three-bed comfort XL holiday home on a tree-lined row.
It’s blisteringly hot, so before we unpack, we pop around the corner to the water park with its array of multicoloured slides to suit everyone, from fast and furious to a lazy river.
It also has a gorgeous poolside snack bar, Barena, where we dig into pepperoni pizzas, £9, washed down with pints of Moretti, £5, and Coke, £3.
Spaghetti junction
Union Lido is one of Eurocamp’s largest sites, with 2,930 pitches and 15 restaurants, snack bars and takeaways, so it takes a while to get our bearings.
That evening, we wander to the main square, where there is a huge supermarket and a fairground.
Enjoy a sand-tastic family day at the beach
We opt for Cantinetta Lispida, a traditional Italian eatery, and I choose the carbonara, £13, while Alistair tries the spaghetti and meatballs, £19.35. Riley and Harris both settle on the four-cheese gnocchi, £14.90, and we also order a carafe of house red, £11, which is one of the best I’ve ever had.
All in all, a great start to a holiday and a taste of things to come, as this place is full of gorgeous restaurants – from the Al Mare on the beach to one of our favourites, Il Borgo, or The Dog Restaurant, as it is nicknamed.
The campsite welcomes dogs with open arms. They have their own campsite area (with their owners, of course), their own swimming pool, and yes, their own restaurant.
Il Borgo is recommended to us by an Irish family we bump into, who have been coming to Union Lido for years. We take their advice and are not disappointed.
The mussels in tomato sauce, £15, are mouth-watering and the spaghetti vongole, £15, is so delicious that I could eat another bowlful. Alistair and Harris wolf down the house burger, £17, and Riley is delighted with her chilli-cheese nuggets, £6.
Meanwhile, I’m thrilled that my refreshing Aperol spritz costs a bargain £4.
Pedalo a-go-go
The blue-flag beach is our favourite place to spend our days.
Seaside bar Lido ‘55 serves ice-cold beers, Coke floats and snacks that can be devoured on your sunbed – and the people-watching never fails to disappoint.
You’ll find Italian classics at Cantinetta Lispida
I take a break from the fam one day and pop to the wellbeing spa, treating myself to a dead-sea scrub, £41.
Later, we all hire a pedalo with a slide and spend a joyful hour whizzing down it into the sparkling blue sea. Taking out paddle boards also proves a fun way to while away the hours.
Riley and Harris are complete naturals and end up so far out to sea, we worry they could be swept away, but it’s not long before they head back to shore again.
Exploring the local area is as simple as jumping on a bus outside the campsite, so we head 9km to the port of Punta Sabbioni, where ferries depart regularly to Venice.
But instead of going to the City of Canals, we decide to visit the islands of Murano and Burano, from £6. It’s 30 minutes on the ferry to our first stop, Murano.
Known as Glass Island, it’s the second largest in the Venetian lagoon after Venice, and is renowned for its glassware.
We take a tour of the Murano Glass Factory to watch the age-old practice of glass blowing in action. Tours cost £4.20 per adult, under-14s are free (Visitmuranoglassfactory.com).
Afterwards, I am tempted by a beautiful vase, but worry I won’t get it home without breaking it.
The colourful chandeliers are also works of art, and I vow one day to return and find a way to transport one home with me.
Talking of chandeliers, we also pop into the Glass Museum where, along with Phoenician flasks and goblets, there is a chandelier weighing 330kg! Entry costs £8.50 for adults, under-14s cost £6.25 (Museovetro.visitmuve.it).
Dopamine days
From Murano, it’s 24 minutes on the No12 ferry to Burano, known for its colourful buildings and intricate lace.
It only takes 10 minutes to stroll from one end of this island to the other, admiring the dopamine houses along the Tre Ponti wooden bridge, painted by fishermen so they could see them in the fog.
Tuck into the spaghetti vongole at Il Borgo
The Lace Museum at the historic palace of Podestà of Torcello is also worth a visit. It has regular art exhibitions and showcases the history of lace making on the island.
Another day, we catch a bus outside the campsite in the opposite direction, to the bustling historic Cavallino Treporti Market, which has everything from food to clothes, and we pick up some olive oil and balsamic vinegar as a souvenir.
All too soon, it’s time to journey home.
But with an air-conditioned bus that picks us up at the campsite and drops us at the airport, getting to this part of Italy has never been easier. And we will be back!
BTW
A week’s stay for four at Union Lido Eurocamp costs from £441 (Eurocamp.co.uk).

LOVE Island’s Faye Winter, 29, opens up about why she’s chosen celibacy to rediscover herself.
After a two-year break from relationships and healing from the pressures of her public break-up, Faye discusses her new focus on personal growth, her love for her animals, and the empowering life changes she’s making as she heads towards her thirties.
Love Island’s Faye Winter, 29, opens up about why she chose two years of celibacy to rediscover herselfGettyFaye admits she stayed with Teddy Soares longer than she should have—now she’s thriving on her own[/caption]
I’ve been single for two years, and I’m the happiest I’ve ever been.
I have always felt my most insecure in relationships, but now I’m comfortable, self-aware and know my own worth.
I also wanted to stay celibate, so I could find myself again.
Some sexy DMs did tempt me, but I wanted to stay true to myself.
Since then, I’ve had some great sex. It’s taboo, but women have needs.
At the moment, I like to have sex, but I don’t want anything more than that.
Nobody has come home to meet my golden retriever Bonnie yet.
After Love Island [in 2021], I stayed with Teddy longer than I should have.
I felt people wanted us to fail, so I stayed to try and prove the doubters wrong.
I’d never had a relationship in the public eye before, and it was harder than I could have imagined
When you stay too long in a relationship, you lose part of yourself.
By the end, I was in a very lonely and vulnerable place – the darkest place I’d ever been.
I have nothing to say to Teddy
That wasn’t necessarily due to Teddy’s behaviour [there were claims he’d cheated]; it was because of the way I treated myself by never putting myself first.
We won’t speak again – I’ve got nothing to say to him.
As a child, I was very outdoorsy, but then I started trying to “fit in”, and was more concerned with my hair, make-up and having plastic surgery.
I’ve had my fillers dissolved, because I didn’t recognise myself, inside or outside.
Life started to turn around after I got Bonnie two years ago – she really did save my life.
InstagramWhen it comes to Teddy, Faye says the pair won’t be speaking again, admitting: ‘I’ve got nothing to say to him’[/caption]
The Love Island star says golden retriever Bonnie saved her life and reminded her what love isOlivia WestFaye added rescue ponies, Keith and Kevin, to her clan in November 2024
I was in therapy and couldn’t leave my house because of self-doubt and social anxiety.
She gave me a new focus and reminded me what love was.
I moved back to Devon in early 2023 with Bonnie, then added two rescue ponies, Keith and Kevin, to our clan in November 2024.
Being covered in mud with my animals has made my heart feel full again.
Top of my list for a partner is love and compassion for animals.
If they’re allergic to dogs, we could never see each other again!
I’m a great Auntie Faye for about 55 minutes, then I’m done – I have animals to tend to!
Bonnie’s a terrible wingwoman, because she doesn’t like men.
She’s a bit like me – she takes a while to trust new people.
Freezing my eggs is something I’m learning about.
I turn 30 in June, and I’m not at the stage where I’m longing for children or feel like something’s missing from my life.
I don’t know at what point that will click – maybe it won’t, and I’m OK with that.
But I’m not going to lower my standards to find a man because I want to start a family.
I’m a great Auntie Faye for about 55 minutes, then I’m done – I have animals to tend to!
And I’m not looking to have a child solo – I’ve got my three fur babies.
I love myself
When people ask about my love life, I don’t get embarrassed – my love life is me, and I love myself.
I feel the least lonely I’ve ever been.
My perfect Sunday is going for a dog walk and a pint with Bonnie.
I’ve bought a house by myself and sometimes fear I’ve bitten off more than I can chew with the renovations, but I can chew a lot in my big mouth without the self-doubt whispering in my ear.
Having that extra pair of hands would be useful, but I love that I’ve done it on my own.
You will not see me on Love Island: All Stars. It was an amazing experience, but for me, it didn’t work.
I’m learning things every day – like how to strip plaster off walls and things my dad would do while I was growing up.
I feel very empowered.
But this year, I want to do more.
It can feel like your path is cast in stone after life in the villa, but I know that wasn’t my path, and now I’m carving out my own that I can be proud of.
I won’t work with brands that test on animals, so that cancels out a lot!
I’ve just filmed something super-exciting, so hopefully you’ll see that soon.
You will not see me on Love Island: All Stars. It was an amazing experience, but for me, it didn’t work.
Plus, I know lots of past contestants – if I was going to date any of them, it would have happened by now.
If the right person comes along, then they’re welcome, but I’m not going to change myself to fit their narrative.
They have to abide by mine and Bonnie’s rules.
The former Islander has confirmed she will not be seen on Love Island: All Stars
