We caught up with Thistle’s owner, Emma, all about her active companion and what it would mean for them to join the Autarky team.

Q. We would you like Thistle to be a part of The Kennel?

A. “We are passionate about feeding high quality, natural dog food to fuel Thistle in all of his adventures. We love the ethos of Autarky, and trust in British made foods to keep Thistle in tip top condition.”

Q. What’s Thistle’s favourite activity and why?
A. “Thistle’s favourite activity is to swim. He is the biggest water baby and has the uncanny ability to seek out the tiniest puddle of water anywhere we go. He would swim all day if we let him — I say he is part fish!”

Q. Tell us a fun fact about Thistle that might surprise people.
A. “Although he came from a highly regarded working gundog kennel he is petrified of pheasants.”

Q. How would you describe your dog in three words?

A. “Three words for Thistle would be ‘live, laugh, love’!
