  • Barney - Doxford Barns

    “I can't recommend wishbone weddings enough! Cheryl came and looked after our dog Barney at our wedding, he took to her straight away and was so relaxed. It is clear that Cheryl loves what she does, I've never seen Barney relax with someone new so quickly.

    Barney went on a little photoshoot adventure with Cheryl and the photos are stunning! it was so nice to see what he got up too during the day.

    Thank you so much for looking after Barney 🥰we highly recommend wishbone weddings if you have your fur baby with you on your special day!”
