London-based LitPet, leading manufacturers of pet supplements based on herbal Traditional Chinese Medicine, recently sponsored the first Sunday Dog Social event which was held at the luxurious 180 House on London's Strand.

Founded by Keef Yap, Sunday Dog Social is a members' club for London dog parents who believe their dog's wellbeing is worth investing in properly. It grew out of YapYap, London's largest dog community which currently has 3,000 members and has held 100+ events. Sunday Dog Social is its next chapter: smaller, quieter and more intentional.

According to Keef, “It is for people who are thoughtful about what they feed their dog, curious about wellness, and looking for a community that reflects that.”

Sessions are held monthly at a curated, central London venue. Membership is deliberately capped to keep the events more intimate and calming.

Among the first guests to attend a Sunday Dog Social was former Strictly Come Dancing professional dancer, Karen Hauer who brought along her pup Marley, one of her four rescue dogs, whom she frequently shares on social media. Karen has been quite vocal about the stress she felt since leaving the show after 13 years and how her dogs have helped her through a difficult time. Talking to The Mail, Karen said, “'My dogs really feel it when I'm stressed, and they have really helped me get through this.”

The duo spent time in the dedicated wellness zone along with other attendees where Marley received a pet reiki session from specialist practitioner Yasmin, and a dog tarot session.

Stephen Hu, founder of LitPet, said:  “'We created LitPet because we saw a need for natural, effective ways to support our pets' wellbeing in busy urban environments.

"Having Karen here today and seeing firsthand how our supplements and these holistic therapies can help dogs like hers find their calm, is exactly why we “launched the Sunday Dog Social.

"It's about building a supportive community for both dogs and their owners.”
