0:01:56 > 0:01:59- We have hats, scarves and gloves...
0:02:00 > 0:02:04- ..and I even have wool - on my shoes and necklace.

0:02:13 > 0:02:17- On Wednesday and Thursday, - we have an event in London...

0:02:21 > 0:02:25- It offers us the opportunity - to promote environmental benefits...
0:02:26 > 0:02:29- ..and the importance of Welsh - and British wool for our carpets.
0:02:30 > 0:02:33- What situation is Wales in - when it comes to wool?
0:02:33 > 0:02:39- Some 45,000 farms in Britain - produce 30 million kilos of wool.
0:02:39 > 0:02:44- Over 9 million kilos of wool - is created on 7,500 Welsh farms.
0:02:44 > 0:02:49- There are a lot of sheep - and even more wool is produced.
0:02:50 > 0:02:56- It isn't the wool - which is being sold here today.
0:02:56 > 0:03:00- No, we're selling the lambs, - produced by the sheep.
0:03:00 > 0:03:07- They're precious produce, - more valuable than the wool itself.
0:03:07 > 0:03:11- Wool is worth more - than it used to be.
0:03:11 > 0:03:15- When my grandfather was alive, - money from wool would pay the rent.
0:03:16 > 0:03:19- That's incredible to think of today.
0:03:20 > 0:03:24- Wool can be found all around us.
0:03:24 > 0:03:28- Yes, it has surprising qualities - and it is used to insulate homes...
0:03:29 > 0:03:31- ..we wear it and it is - also used for our carpets.
0:03:31 > 0:03:34- It has some astounding qualities.
0:03:35 > 0:03:37- Do you sell wool?
0:03:38 > 0:03:42- Yes, we produce 5,000 kilos - of wool a year.
0:03:43 > 0:03:47- We have Romney sheep - and Welsh Mountain Sheep...
0:03:48 > 0:03:51- ..which create - a better quality of wool.
0:03:52 > 0:03:56- The wool must be good - if it goes into the carpets.
0:03:56 > 0:03:59- Yes, hardwearing wool.
0:04:00 > 0:04:04- Coming to the Ruthin Livestock - Market is quite the eye-opener.
0:04:04 > 0:04:09- I've learnt that there are - over 60 different breeds of sheep.
0:04:09 > 0:04:13- Every sheep is different.
0:04:14 > 0:04:19- Welsh sheep - have more kemp in the wool.
0:04:19 > 0:04:23- Romney's wool is more expensive...
0:04:23 > 0:04:26- ..and different wool - all have different weights.
0:04:27 > 0:04:30- It all depends on the shearer and - how well he's managed to remove it.
0:04:31 > 0:04:34- Is that true?
0:04:34 > 0:04:37- Well, if the shearer cuts the wool - in half, it isn't as good.
0:04:37 > 0:04:40- You sound like quite the expert.
0:04:41 > 0:04:44- I wouldn't say that, but I was - a shearer for over 30 years.
0:04:44 > 0:04:47- In Wales, we have many sheep...
0:04:47 > 0:04:54- ..and it's great to see the wool - being used for various things.
0:04:54 > 0:04:59- It's a shame that there aren't - even more uses for wool.
0:04:59 > 0:05:09- Producing wool isn't at the top - of farmers' lists, these days.
0:05:09 > 0:05:13- The British Wool Marketing Board...
0:05:13 > 0:05:17- ..work hard - to raise the industry's profile.
0:05:18 > 0:05:21- To be fair to farmers who raise - the sheep and produce the wool...
0:05:22 > 0:05:26- ..the percentage of the farm's - income from the wool is very low.
0:05:26 > 0:05:33- The challenge for us as a board - is to raise that percentage.
0:05:33 > 0:05:37- If we can increase the percentage - and interest in the industry...
0:05:38 > 0:05:42- ..the farmers will receive - better pay for their wool.

0:19:56 > 0:19:59- ..and now, - there's also ice cream for dogs.
0:20:04 > 0:20:09- Frozzys - are frozen yogurts for dogs.
0:20:09 > 0:20:14- It replaces ice cream - as it isn't very good for them.
0:20:14 > 0:20:19- Ice cream is very sweet due to - its high sugar and dairy content.
0:20:19 > 0:20:25- This yogurt is lactose-free - and it's a healthy treat for dogs.
0:20:27 > 0:20:32- This is the first time we've - seen this trend at North Dock...
0:20:32 > 0:20:35- ..and perhaps even Britain.
0:20:36 > 0:20:41- The frozen yogurt trend has brought - lots of visitors to the area.
0:20:41 > 0:20:48- The dogs enjoy Frozzys just as much - as we enjoy our ice cream.
0:20:49 > 0:20:55- We ordered 200 tubs of Frozzys - and they sold out in one day.
0:20:55 > 0:21:00- These are healthier than ice cream - as they're lactose free.
0:21:00 > 0:21:05- Every dog is lactose intolerant, - just like some humans.
0:21:06 > 0:21:10- Therefore, this is - a healthier option for the dog.
0:21:10 > 0:21:15- We're at the forefront - in terms of caring for our dogs.
0:21:15 > 0:21:20- This is an incredible place - to bring your dog.
0:21:20 > 0:21:23- There's a fantastic view.
0:21:24 > 0:21:28- I doubt that there's a better place - in the world to walk your dog.
