THE Basingstoke branch of Pets at Home will be holding two special workshops this weekend to give pet owners advice on dealing with their pets blues.

The workshops will take place at the store, at Hatch Warren Retail Park, between 2pm and 2pm this Saturday and Sunday.

A team will be on hand to provide information on how to ensure pets don’t suffer from separation anxiety with children returning back to school.

Deputy manager, Debbie Wright, said: “After being surrounded by family for a few weeks, pets get used to the fun and attention children bring them, but a suddenly empty home can affect them.

“Even well-behaved pets start exhibiting strange or unruly behaviour, but there are actions you can take to minimise this.”

For more information on the workshops, please contact Pets at Home Basingstoke on 0845 6009657.
