What a perfect Saturday morning 🐾💕 After the early start, all the pups are out for the count—Nala, Buzz, Freddie, Bernie, Medium Oscar, Roxy, and Betty—all snoozing away, watching me do the chores must have worn them out, and it’s only ten past eight! 🙌
The rest of the day is ours to chill, with a couple of little guests heading home and Alfie the Spaniel joining us later—how exciting! 🎉 I’m sure he’ll liven things up with lots of playtime, and I can’t wait to see what little Nala makes of him! 🐶✨
Maybe it’s the soothing sounds of Classic FM 🎵 keeping them so relaxed, or just the cosy vibes of this lovely morning. Either way, it’s these moments that make it all so special. 💖

🌞🐾 What a perfect day for a sniffari with the dreamBlasford Hill Dog Park Marcel the bearded Collie, Cooper the Lab, Alfie the stunning Golden, Charlie the fabulous Spaniel, and of course, our very own Buzz, who’s truly living up to his name, buzzing around and enjoying every moment.
The sun’s shining, there’s a crisp breeze in the air, and the pups are loving life together—sniffing, playing, and just enjoying each other’s company. 🐶❤️
And would you believe it? In Little Waltham, I spotted two daffodils! 🌼 By the river. In December! This weather has lost the plot, but it’s certainly made for a lovely day out. 🌤️
Drop me a comment if your furry friend goes to Blasford dog park and we can say Hi next time! 🐕✨

🎥 Over at Shakestones, Dakota and Aslan are putting on a masterclass in tug of war! 💪🐾 My two gorgeous floofy friends know how to play and enjoy a session at the park… shaking it up and I get to stay on my feet
Dakota: “This side’s mine, hands down!”
Aslan: “Dream on, girlie!”
Tug toy: “Help”
It’s all paws, jaws, and waggy tails as these best mates show us what teamwork (or is it rivalry?) is all about. Who’s your money on? Or is the real winner the tug toy surviving this chaos? 🏆🐕❤️

A Celebration of Molly’s Beautiful Life 🌈
With the heaviest of hearts, Marrianne said goodbye to beloved Molly, who crossed the Rainbow Bridge yesterday to be reunited with Nanny Jean. Molly was, and always will be, a cherished member of the Golden Paws Essex family. Her loss is deeply felt by everyone who was lucky enough to have spent time with her and got to know her. There goes a piece of my heart, but i’ll always have a piece of hers. She gave love so unconditionally
Molly came into my life during the early days of COVID, when I was asked to walk her and Benji while Marianne and her mum were unwell. From that moment on, Molly’s mum and Nanny became so much more than a client—They became family. Through her, I gained not just a bond with two wonderful dogs, but a friendship with an incredible family who loved her so dearly.
Sir Bark-a-Lot (Benji) has lost his constant companion, his shadow, his partner in mischief. His comforter when he was in a cone. Molly was always by his side. I know he’ll feel her absence deeply, but we’ll be there for him, ensuring he still feels the love she gave so effortlessly.
Molly was the sweetest soul with a sassy side that made everyone smile. She gave the best kisses, the warmest cuddles, and loved with her whole heart. Despite a tough start in life, she grew into the most loving, gentle girl who brightened every room she entered. She had a special way of making everyone feel like they were her favourite person in the world.
Molly fought so bravely to stay with us, and her strength will never be forgotten. She leaves behind so many wonderful memories—of love, laughter, and all the little moments that made her so special. The tears will flow, as they should for such a beautiful soul, but let’s also celebrate her life: her love, her sass, and the joy she brought to all who were lucky enough to know her.
Molly, you will always be part of our Golden Paws family. Rest easy now, sweet girl—you were so deeply
🎄 With Christmas just around the corner, we’re all starting to feel the festive spirit here at Golden Paws Essex! Rather than sending Christmas cards or gifts, we’re celebrating the season of giving in a way that makes a real difference.
🐾 This December, for every invoice raised, we’ll be donating £1 to Rovers Dog Rescue. They do amazing work, rescuing and caring for dogs in need, ensuring every pup has the best chance at a loving forever home.
❤️ Reggie, our current foster, is one of the incredible dogs Rovers has helped. He’s searching for his forever family, and we’re sure he won’t be waiting long because he’s just so lovable!
✨ We’ll be sharing a special Christmas message soon when we make the donation. Until then, thank you for being part of our wonderful community. Wishing you all a season full of joy, love, and plenty of tail wags xx #goldenpawsessex #chelmsforddogs #doglovers #charity #localcharity #roversdogrescue
🕰️ Reminder: The Clocks Go Back This Weekend! 🕰️
This Sunday, we gain an extra hour as the clocks go back. Remember, this change can affect our pets too! An extra hour of sleep sounds lovely to us, but our furry friends might need a little time to adjust to the new routine.
🌟 Top Tip: Gradually shift feeding and walking times over the next few days to help them transition smoothly.
Let's all enjoy the extra hour, and don’t forget to set those clocks back! 🍁🐾
