Merry Christmas Ya'll!!! We made it! The finish line was so close, we weren't sure we'd get there, but here we are!!! 😆 Another year down and oh boy, this Christmas week has to have topped any other years! 🎄
From Pawtraits, to Christmas Lunch, Pawgaritas, Pools & enrichment games and even a few birthday celebrations, the pups have been spoilt beyond words! 🎂🍰🍸

We've also heard on the grapevine that every doggo of BB's are unanimously and most definitely on Santa Paws NICE list this year! 🎁🎅

Stay tuned for the entries of our "Best Dressed Competition" for 2025, but in the meantime, in keeping with this week's theme here are our siblings of the day. The full album of pawtraits can be found in our FB group "Dogs of BB's"! 📸

Have a wonderful Friday night friends! 🥰🫶

Well the pups certainly brought it in the energy department today! And what sort of "Beachmas" would it be without a scorching 30+ degree day! 🔥😅🌡

Lucky pups were spoilt to pools, plenty of ice games & naturally that means many of the pawtraits are wet and soggy! 💦💧🌊

In keeping with the week's theme, enjoy the siblings of the day! 🫶📸 Full album is available in Dogs of BB's!

See you all tomorrow for our final day of mischief, chaos and hopefully making it onto Santa's NICE list! 🎁🎄🎅

17/12/2025

What a Wednesday!! Talk about going out with a bang, today's effort certainly has to top that of any other day, week, heck year! 🥳😆

The siblings brought it with the cheek & cuteness for today's Pawtraits, as did Izzy with her patience and calm, making sure everyone got their close up taken! 📸

Don't forget to head to "Dogs of BB's for the full album! And make sure to tag us when you share with your friends! 🙌🫶
2 more day's to go folks!! 💪🎄🎁🎅

Day 2 of BB’s Christmas fun is officially in the books! 🎄🎊

BB’s Beachmas Bash continued today and the siblings of the day absolutely stole the show! 🩷🩵 From side-by-side silliness to matching mischief, these bonded besties reminded us just how special sibling relationships are at BB’s 🐶

The pups soaked up another big day of festive fun, laughs, play and togetherness — and of course our wonderful Izzy was back behind the camera capturing every sweet (and cheeky) moment in the photobooth 📸
You’ll find the full Day 2 album uploaded into Dogs of BB’s for all the proud parents to enjoy:

Happy Thursday legends! 🎉
We hope you've all had an amazing week and are ready for the weekend ahead! 🐾

Today we’re throwing it back to one of our tiniest-turned-mightiest regulars and — our beautiful cavoodle Persephone! 💗
From her very first days at BB’s as a teeny little fluffball, she’s been making a goddess-level impact on playtime. And with a name like Persephone, she had to live up to the mythology… and she absolutely does! This girl is pure duality — the goddess of spring AND the queen of the under-woof. 🌸🐾😈
One minute she’s sweet, calm, and fluttering around like a little blossom… and the next she's unleashing absolute chaos (the fun kind!) across daycare!💃🌪🌀
Persephone may be petite, but don’t let that fool you — she plays big. She’s fast, cheeky, social, and always ready to stir up some fun with her signature zoomies and confident cavoodle charm. 🐾⚡️
And of course… where there’s Persephone, there’s Marley! Her absolute bestie, partner-in-crime, and co-captain of chaos. These two tear up BB’s daycare floor together, bouncing from game to game like a pair of joyful little spring sprites! 🌼🐶🌼
On our farm excursions, the dynamic duo becomes unstoppable — sprinting side by side, exploring every corner, and making sure no stick, puddle, or open field goes un-zoomed. 🚜🌾
We adore watching Persephone blossom into the bright, confident, playful girl she is today. We're so blessed to have been able to celebrate her 1st birthday with her this week and are in awe of the young woman she's become! Here’s to many more years of friendship, fun, and goddess-level energy with our sweet Persephone! ✨💛

Keep being you girl, we woof you!🥰

Happy Monday furiends of BB’s!🥰
We hope you had a great weekend and are ready for the pawtastic week ahead! 🐾

For today’s we’re celebrating Cindy, our sweet little Cavalier pup whose journey at BB’s has been nothing short of beautiful. 🤎🐶

When Cindy first joined us in the Puppy Palace, she was a gentle, quiet little lady — taking her time to settle in and watching the world with those big thoughtful eyes. We knew she just needed time, patience, reassurance and the right puppy friends… and wow, has she blossomed! 🌸✨
Fast-forward to today, and Cindy has grown into a confident, playful young girl who jumps right into daycare life with excitement! She now greets her pals with a wag that takes over her whole body, joins group games with the sweetest enthusiasm, and happily explores every new activity we throw her way!🏆🐕
From shy sniffs to full zoomies… from quiet corners to centre-of-the-playgroup… Cindy has truly found her place here at BB’s — and we couldn’t be prouder! 🐾💛
She’s proof that gentle beginnings can grow into the brightest confidence, and watching her come out of her shell has been one of our favourite transformations this year!😇🥳

✨ Cindy girl, we adore your soft heart, your brave steps, and the joy you now bring into the play yard every single visit. Keep shining, little one. ✨

Keep being you sweet girl, we woof you!💗

Happy Thursday legends! 🎉
We hope you've all had an amazing week and are ready for the weekend ahead! 😇

For today's we’re throwing it way back for our beautiful Border Collie boy, Sunny — one of BB’s long-standing legends and an unstoppable toy-chasing machine! 💛⚡️
Sunny has been lighting up our daycare for over 4 years, bouncing through the gates with that signature tail wag and eyes locked on whoever he’s convinced will throw the next ball! 🎾😆
If there’s a game of fetch happening, you already know Sunny is front and centre… and probably winning!🏆
He’s not just fast — he’s smart. Like, BB’s honour-roll smart. This boy thrives on routine, knows his games inside out, and listens like a total champ! Whether it’s group recall, obstacle courses, or learning a new challenge, Sunny is always one step ahead with that eager little sparkle in his eye! 🧠✨
On our farm excursions, Sunny’s obedience and focus shine even brighter! Amid all the freedom and excitement, he’s the dog that comes sprinting straight back the moment he’s called, ready for his next mission — usually involving a stick, a ball, or a very enthusiastic zoomie! 🚜🌾
We adore this energetic, clever, joyful, sunshine-in-dog-form boy and we’re so lucky to have watched him grow, play, learn, and thrive with us. Here’s to many more years of fetch, fun, brain games, and farm days, Sunny! 💛🐾✨

Keep being you buddy, we woof you!💙
