Thursday Thrills 🌾💦

We kicked off bright and early today with our fabulous furry CEO strutting her stuff in the brand new Midnight Rain collection… and I might be a little biased, but it absolutely pops! ✨🌙 With the sky looking a little moody this morning, it felt like the perfect choice – functional and fabulous!

Nala took her job very seriously, making sure her pals stayed in check while enjoying splash time in the stream, frolicking through the fields, and – of course – ensuring everyone got their fair share of treats 🍖 (Rex’s dad was shocked when he actually took one of Nala’s approved goodies – she must have the magic touch!)

After a well-earned lunch shared with me (obviously), Nala went home to relax and enjoy a little CEO down time. I continued the day with our more reserved doggos who enjoy the peace and quiet – and honestly, I get it. Woodland walks, calming company and just the rustle of leaves… yes please 🌳💚

The girls made full use of their garden pool as the sun made an appearance ☀️ and we had front row seats to the tractor cutting the neighbouring field – who knew grass trimming could be so therapeutic? Bonus: the freshly cut field meant they got to enjoy zoomies through the long grass before it disappeared! I think I earned an ice cream after that one 🍦😂

We’ll be keeping an eye on the weather for tomorrow, but paws crossed it stays cool and breezy!

Wednesday Wanders 🌧️🐾

We kicked off bright and early today, with the rain from overnight meaning some of our favourite trails were blissfully quiet – just the way we like them! 🌿💧

Our furry CEO took a well-earned break this morning, opting for a cosy lie-in and catching up on some rest. Meanwhile, I was out and about making sure all her furry friends were well looked after 🐶💕

Wednesdays always mean one thing… Martha cuddles – and honestly, it’s my midweek highlight! 🥰 The rain brought out all the best smells too, so sniffaris were very much in full swing today, with noses to the ground and tails wagging!

We checked in on our lovely Alice who’s still on the mend – she’s enjoying her downtime and making the most of all the extra fuss from her bed. The rest of the afternoon was taken at everyone’s own pace – slow, sniffy, and full of calming vibes 🐾🌿

Just as the sun peeked out and a gentle breeze rolled in, our furry CEO joined us for the last walk of the day with her pal Rex – making sure to take in the sunshine and strut her stuff down the trail. She even decided to stick around and help me with a training client afterwards… showing off her recall like the professional she is 👏🎓

I’ll be keeping an eye on the forecast for tomorrow in case we need to adjust plans, but fingers crossed the breeze sticks around!

👇Let us know – does your pup love a post-rain sniffari as much as our crew?

🐾 How to Introduce a Dog to a Muzzle for Safer Walks 🐾

Muzzles can be an essential tool for safety, but it’s important to introduce them in a positive way so your dog feels comfortable wearing one. 🐶 Here’s how to get started:

Choose the Right Muzzle
Pick a basket-style muzzle that allows your dog to pant, drink, and take treats. Ensure it’s well-fitted for comfort and safety.

Take It Slow
Introducing a muzzle is a gradual process. Start in a calm environment, away from distractions, to help your dog feel at ease.

Make It Positive
Associate the muzzle with good things! Let your dog sniff it, then reward them with high-value treats. This helps create a positive connection.

Use Treats to Encourage Interaction
Place treats inside the muzzle and let your dog explore it on their own. Don’t rush—let them go at their own pace.

Build Up Time Gradually
Once your dog is comfortable with the muzzle, gently place it on their nose for a few seconds. Reward and remove. Gradually increase the time they wear it while keeping the experience positive.

Pair It with Walk Prep
Incorporate the muzzle into your pre-walk routine. Practice putting it on, then reward and praise before heading out for a fun walk.

Stay Positive on Walks
Keep the walk enjoyable! Reward calm behaviour and give your dog time to sniff and explore as usual.

Never Use It as Punishment
A muzzle should never be used as a punishment—it’s a safety tool. Keep the association positive to ensure your dog feels confident wearing it.

Introducing a muzzle takes patience, but it’s worth it for safer, more relaxed walks. 🐾

Does your dog use a muzzle? Share your tips or experiences in the comments! If you need help with muzzle training, drop me a DM—I’d love to support you. 🐶💖

🐾 Let’s Walk Together – Nala’s Trails Social Walks 🐶🚶‍♀️

I’ve been thinking about starting something a little special for our Nala’s Trails family… and I’m excited to say I’d love to introduce a monthly social walk! 🥰

These walks will be a lovely chance to catch up, enjoy a relaxed stroll with fellow dog lovers, and let our pups explore alongside one another in a safe and supportive way. Whether you’ve attended Puppy Academy, one-to-one training, or group classes — you’re all invited!

🐕‍🦺 Our first walk will be on Sunday 13th July and I’ve narrowed it down to three local options:

📍 Deans Clough Reservoir
📍 Sunnyhurst Wood
📍 Martholme Viaduct

Let me know in the comments which one you’d prefer — or if there’s a walk you love and think we should try! I’m open to suggestions and want to make sure it’s accessible and enjoyable for everyone 🌿

This is a free and friendly get-together, not a training session, just a chance to enjoy good company, beautiful views, and happy dogs 🐾

I’m really looking forward to seeing you all (and your pups!) outside the classroom soon.

Tara & Nala 🐶💜

Delivery Day Delight 🎁🐾

It’s that time again… and our furry CEO knew exactly what was inside the bag the moment she saw it! 😍

Huge shoutout to and Damon for absolutely smashing it again this month 👏 Not only did he make sure Nala’s treat bag was packed full of her favourites (including her beloved venison sausages – which she promptly snaffled TWO of before I could hide the rest! 😅), but he also made sure everything was tailored to her needs. No nasties, no ingredients she can’t have – just a happy girl and a waggy tail 💕🐶

I genuinely recommend this small business – not just because Holly and Damon are local and lovely, but because they go above and beyond every time. The attention to detail, the rotating selection of goodies, and the joy it brings to Nala makes it so worth it. Plus, watching her tear into that bag with so much excitement? It’s priceless 🥰

🎥 Swipe to see her snout-first reaction and that happy “I stool another treat face"

👇Let us know – does your dog have a favourite treat they’d do anything for?

Tuesday Trails 🐾🌿

We kicked off early again today – it might’ve looked like rain, but it was still warm and humid, so we weren't taking any chances! 🌥️💧

Our furry CEO joined in on the morning adventures, keeping a close eye on the treat bag during foraging time, making sure there was splashing in the stream, and of course a good play in the long grass. She really is the queen of quality control! 👑🐶

After dropping Nala home to relax, we made a little detour to check on a client who had some concerns about one of her pups. We always want to make sure our furry friends are happy and healthy before setting off on any walk. 💛

With the weather being sticky and the air not cooling as much as we’d like, we stuck to shaded woodland routes and shortened walks where needed – better safe than sorry! Some dogs are finding this muggy spell a little tricky, so we’re making adjustments where we can to keep tails wagging and paws safe. 🌲🦴

We wrapped up the day with some much-needed Martha cuddles, and lovely exploring walks with plenty of sniffing. A bit of afternoon drizzle meant the smells were out in full force – our sniffari experts were in heaven! 🐕👃🍃

☁️ We’ll be keeping a close watch on the weather for tomorrow and will continue starting early to beat the heat if needed. Thank you as always to our wonderful clients for being so supportive.

👇Tell us – does your dog love the rain or do they give you that look when it starts drizzling?

Monday Mayhem 🌞🐾

We kicked off a little earlier than planned today with the forecast warning us it’d be a hot one by lunchtime – so we set off to get as many walks in as possible before switching to home visits. Safety first for our furry friends (and me too!). ☀️💦

Our furry CEO originally decided she wasn't coming this morning... but swiftly changed her mind the moment she saw the treats packed and the car loaded up! Classic Nala move. She joined in with her pals, making sure everyone stayed cool, had a blast in the stream, and of course – extra treats were handed out. 🐶🎒

We stuck to woodland trails for that all-important shade and kept water and doggy sunscreen close by. Foraging was a hit as always, and Nala led the sniffari squad like the boss she is!

The girls made full use of their garden and pool later in the day – splashing, playing, and chilling in the shade under the trees before heading indoors for a little brain game time with their puzzle toys. 🧩🌳💧

☀️ We’ll be keeping a close eye on the weather this week and will update clients if any schedule changes are needed to keep your pups safe and cool!

Funday Friday 🐾💛

We kicked off bright and early today with lots going on — and you just know that meant extra treats were packed for both pups and humans! 🍪🐶 Our furry CEO joined in on as many walks as she could, making sure her pals got their strolls in — even with a touch of light rain. She doesn’t let a drizzle dampen her day!

The afternoon was full of solo adventures, although Lincoln had a special guest tagging along today. She seemed to have some strong opinions about my driving — very vocal, very sassy, and absolutely hilarious. 🚗💨😂

There were sniffaries, games, and lots of tail wags throughout the rest of the day. We made the most of every moment and squeezed out every bit of fun before wrapping up.

To finish off, our furry CEO rejoined us for a relaxed teatime walk with Rex, soaking in the slower pace, lapping up fuss from kids playing outside, and of course... sneaking a few bonus treats! A lovely end to a busy day. 🌦️🐾💕

✨We’re so excited to welcome our new Puppy Academy crew tomorrow, plus see our wonderful one-to-one clients! And guess what? Not long now until our harness collection goes live – just a few final touches to sort tonight. Eek! 🎉🐕
