Pups and their proud 'parents' headed to Healthy Pet Store in Totton for a morning of mixing and mingling with fellow tiny tail-waggers.
The pet food and accessory retailer invited dogs and their families to its new puppy socialisation initiative - Puppy Natter - a monthly hour-long session of cuteness, cuddles and companionship to help puppies build their confidence around humans and other dogs.

The puppy session welcomed a range of breeds including Cleo the Golden Retriever, Peter the Springer Spaniel and Keira the Chihuahua, as well as lots more.
Hosted by head dog behaviourist, Jeanette Muldoon from The Family Dog Club Ltd, the meetup was a perfect opportunity for owners to pick up some training tips and tricks whilst their pups played with new friends.
Puppy Natter was launched by Healthy Pet Store to help puppies learn to socialise with other dogs, while supporting caregivers with advice on puppy care, wellbeing, and general upbringing advice.
The Puppy Natter sessions are free to attend.
