True story ! 🤣

It was a challenging week last week in The Great OutPaws- but between us we managed to keep the good ship TGOP afloat .
It’s still challenging out there with the continued slow thawing of the snow . But thankfully it’s a little bit warmer .

Em has a lot more dogs than I , and a lot are further a field than mine for pick ups so more challenging to get to. So it was only safe and sensible to cancel .
Eventually being able to get out and do a group walk toward the end of the week with her old ma doing the driving ( though I think she would have preferred me not to 🤣🤣🤣)

Em and I would like to thank everyone who was supportive of us last week !
It’s the last thing we want to do but safety comes first and foremost.

As lovely as it has been to look at and walk in when we have made it to the woods let’s hope any more snow is on a weekend! 🙈

A post we’ve been meaning to do for a long time
Not one we have been eager to do.
From mid 2023 until the end of 2024 we’ve had to say goodbye to so many of the TGOP doggies
💙 Bailey - mischievious and slow . As slow can be until he got a scent of a doggie he liked and then boy could he move!
The loveliest little fellow.
💙Chester - who after puppy visits had only just joined Emily’s group walks and was being such a big brave boy. He was Reggie’s little brother from another who was only a pup when he passed and hadn’t been with The Great OutPaws very long . Only now it seems appropriate to share .

💗Bonnie - queen bee ! A real character who had everyone herded up and given half a chance in a pen knowing old stalkey eye !

My mum and dad’s dog who had occasionally joined the gang back when we first began , my friends dog who passed suddenly .
We learned of one of our ex TGOP doggies passing and one other of the gang whose humans would prefer to keep private passed too . We mention you because we haven’t forgotten.

Too many and of those who have passed , some real shocks. Too many and way too young to leave this world .
These losses have hit hard and your memory lingers 💔

But we loved you no matter how long you were with us and you’ll always be a part of TGOP X
Here’s just a few pics of those we can share

Well what a year it’s been! A crazy one 🤪

Can’t believe another year has gone by and I’m still doing what I love 🐶💓

It’s been a challenging year but also a rewarding one! We’ve had new dogs join and to see their confidence grow in the groups is heartwarming!

We will still think about the dogs that have gone to doggy heaven and will always have a special place in our hearts at The Great OutPaws💚

I would like to thank my mum for helping me out when I’ve been poorly, hurt my back, van broken down and so on…😂

I would also like to give a BIG THANK YOU to all you lovely owners!! Thank you for supporting us for another year & trusting us with your doggies! It means the world to us that we have such amazing owners💗

Another big thank you to the dog walking community! No matter how big or small the problem is they will always come rushing to help!!

I’m very grateful for the people around me in this job and I wouldn’t have it any other way!

I hope you all had a lovely Christmas & have a lovely new year🎆

Can’t wait to get stuck back in next week! (With the mud returning of course 🤣)

All my love

Emily 💚🐶🖤

Well wasn’t my Saturday filled with puppy love !
I had the pleasure of some 1-1 training with little Buddy here !

His humans are first time dog owners and want to give him the best start .
We worked on recalling away from off limits things and teaching Buddy to drop too .
One of the most common puppy training conundrums ( I don’t like the term issue so conundrum it is !) is getting our pups to do something other than the thing that can be harmful and unsafe , yet for the pupper is perfectly normal exploratory behaviour.
So that’s what we did and we talked about diet and gut health , floor surfaces and exercise . Yes those are pretty damn important too and the foundations of a perfect Great OutPaws pup .
Next visit , we’re off to the park to add some more layers of perfect pupness to little Buddy’s life !

Love this post and the comments 💞💙

Can you help?
I’m looking for a couple more people and thier dogs to help me with my course case studies .
Your dog can’t have been to the vet about a musculoskeletal issue or have a diagnosis of any musculoskeletal issue for this .
Any other diagnoses are fine though.

If you suspect something is going on with your dog physically or have noticed changes behaviourally then taking part could be of huge benefit to you.

If you’re interested in helping me let me know in the comments and I’ll messge you to tell you more about what’s involved . Or you can private message me if you prefer

Thanks
Sam

Friday appreciation post goes to my lass Emily !

6 years ago this week Emily joined me officially as a member of The Great Outpaws. It was this week that Bailey and Bobby also joined the gang and though Bailey is sadly no longer with us Bobby is and he’s in the good hands of Emily !

So a shout out to celebrate 6 years of Emily and a thank you for putting up with me ! 🙈
We’ve made it through thick and thin .
Lock downs and doggies that have come and gone one way or another .
Many a tear over those doggies in private and remembering them fondly from time to time !
