If you're looking for dog events in Devon, love exploring the Pebblebed Heaths, or simply want a great day out with your dog, we'd love to meet you.

We're incredibly excited to announce that Nervy Mutt will be exhibiting at A Dog's Day on the Heath, organised by Devon Loves Dogs. Even more exciting for us, it's our first ever public event.

Whether your dog is confident, nervous, reactive, or somewhere in between, this event is all about celebrating responsible dog ownership while enjoying one of Devon's most beautiful landscapes.

Hosted by: Devon Loves Dogs
Date: Saturday 25th July
Time: 10:30am to 3:30pm

Who is Nervy Mutt?

Nervy Mutt was created because we know not every dog wants to say hello.

Our mission is simple:

To help dogs who need space and educate the public about giving them exactly that.

Every year, countless stressful interactions happen simply because people don't recognise the signs that a dog may be anxious, nervous or reactive. Through awareness, education and practical products, we hope to make walks safer and more enjoyable for everyone.

Of course, we also love meeting owners of friendly, social dogs. Responsible dog ownership benefits every dog, regardless of temperament.

What You'll Find on Our Stand

This event is a chance to meet us face-to-face, ask questions and learn more about what we do.

We'll be showcasing our growing range of high-visibility "Give Us Space" products, designed to help communicate a dog's needs before an interaction happens.

Our range includes:

• High visibility "Give Us Space" t-shirts and hoodies
• Matching dog bandanas
• Bright apparel designed to encourage awareness
  

We'll also be chatting about our future plans for the Nervy Mutt community and how we're working to make public spaces more understanding for dogs that need a little extra room.

Why We Support Responsible Dog Ownership

A reactive dog isn't a bad dog.

Dogs may need space for many reasons:

• Recovery after surgery
• Fear or anxiety
• Rescue backgrounds
• Pain or medical conditions
• Training in progress
• Puppy confidence building
• Older dogs that simply prefer a quieter life

Likewise, owners of friendly dogs can make a huge difference by recognising when another dog needs distance.

A little understanding can prevent stress, setbacks and even injuries.

Why Events Like This Matter

Devon Loves Dogs has built an incredible reputation for encouraging people to enjoy the countryside responsibly.

Events like A Dog's Day on the Heath bring together:

• Local dog businesses
• Behaviour professionals

We're incredibly proud to be part of such a positive event.
