We’ve written quite a lot recently about how Covid-19 has affected both our lives and those of our pets. Now that we are beginning to return to work, some of us are looking at how we can do things differently in the future to improve our health and maintain the bonds we have developed with our animals after spending lots of time together in lockdown.  As a nation we have begun to appreciate our new-found quality time with our pets and recognise the emotional benefits we get from spending more time outside together. Some of us may have had a...
