Appreciation post for our dog Gino who can now show off his loose lead walking in a pretty low distraction area π₯³ (I am not asking for a heel or for him to walk at a certain side, this is why the loose slip lead is so important as any tension on the side its not set up for can cause too much tightening around the neck)
He's been getting on SO well in these past 10/12 weeks that he's been with us. What a difference!!
Today he is being walked on just his slip lead, which he has recently graduated to from his figure of 8 which we found was the best way to manage him in certain areas up until now! π
Hard work does pay off! π Very well done, pup π₯°
If you're interested in loose lead walking sessions for your dog, please give us a shout! We have some discounted rates for training sessions just now!! Don't just put up with being dragged down the road, or even across the road by your dog any longer!! π₯°
Holly, Harley, River, Mia & Teddy all posing for our famous rock photo! Picture to follow! πΎ
Finally the sun came out for our big group walk π
Van tour β¨οΈ
Wee Colin does the job, however we can't wait to hopefully upgrade in the near future for more space and to maybe even become LEZ compliant π
Friday morning runs in the suns with River and Teddy! πΎ
What a dream of a lunch time walk today with Holly, Teddy and Peanut π
All the dogs have been exceptionally well behaved last week and this week so far!! Especially with lots of people out and about on their wellbeing walks and enjoying the sun!
11/10 to all our Mud Pack pups!! πΎ
Wilbur says he's buzzing to be back in the Pack! He might be down an eye but he's definitely still got that 5 star personality π€©
"Seek" or "Find it" πΎ
Whichever way you say it, this game is fantastic for calming dogs and encouraging sniffing which also tires them out at the same time! It's a great reset for dogs when they get a little over excited with the environment they are in, or to grab focus before moving off again.
All the dogs in our pack get to play this game so feel free to try this out on your own walks and watch how much they love it!!!
Please give all your dogs an extra big cuddle today.
Unfortunately this was the last time our boy ran free with his friends..
Our beautiful boy, the face of our brand and the reason we started up this business had to say goodbye to this world on Saturday morning. We are both absolutely heart broken without our sidekick.
Obviously we will be a little emotional these next few weeks, but we will make sure to give all your dogs and of course all of Bruno's besties some extra love π Especially the pups in the video below who all behaved exceptionally well while we tried to do our best to keep him comfortable and get him to the vet.
Run free now, our boy. You were the best pack member we could have ever asked for πΎ π
Here's a little something I learned at Absafe last summer!!
Stay vigilant, and watch out for these rip currents. DO NOT let your dogs or kids enter the water near a rip current as even the strongest swimmer can find themselves being swept out to sea!! π
Pack Trek last week in the heat!!! π
The doggos who joined us were..
Bruno, Holly, Teddy and Wilbur! πΎ
Holly loses a ball almost every day and usually cant see them in the water so this was such an achievement π€£ π
Harley's golden rule : NEVER leave a ball behind π€£π€£
PSA π: This is why NOT to use laser pointers with your dogs. They get obsessed because they can't ever "catch" the laser.
There is much more rewarding games to play where your pup gets the satisfaction of the catch! Give flirt pole a try for a similar task.

River's got that Friday feeling π
Building confidence with the girls and wee Brodie!!
Not me encouraging Brodie to move forward while accidentally standing on his lead! Poor boy was trying so hard π
π€£
Low energy walk today with the girls (as Harley has a sore leg) but we still had loads of fun trotting along in the sun playing with the balls πΎβοΈ
Happy doggies today enjoying the breezy sunshine down by the river π€
Carmelo hates being wet...
But he hates his rain coat more so we move π€£
