What a week! 🤣🙈

10 adventures for lead the way this week, Monday and Tuesdays walks have been published already, below you will see our 6 group walks from wednesday onwards. 🥰🐕🫶

I am over the moon with Jackson and Shiva this week, absolutely outstanding behavior, both with brilliant doggy etiquette as well. 😎😍

Buddy has been missing from action this week due to him going through surgery this morning...... buddy is home and recovering well already. 💪🫶🐕

Its been one hell of a week, with my mums scare last week, and now buddy today. Hopefully no more drama and we can look forward to a stress free week with the best dogs ever........

I am eternaly grateful for your understanding over the past few weeks folks.....Not many dog walking business can say they have clients who are more friends than customers. When I say you all mean the world to us, I dont think you all understand just how much we appreciate you all. 🙏💙❤️🥰

We hope our amazing clients have a lovely weekend. 😎🙏

We hope Shiva❤️ had a lovely birthday🎂🎉😘 yesterday and got spoiled rotten....happy birthday gorgeous girl! 🫶🥰🎉

Shiva❤️ joined our afternoon adventure today and she had a rare time watching the deer 🦌🦌in the distance, as well as the odd nudge of appreciation from Sorcha too. 🤣
They have a lovely relationship forming folks, I cant wait until Shiva is off lead around a group that she's fully comfortable with. 👍🐕🐾🫶 Patience is key! We dont like to force dogs into situations that make them even more uncomfortable. 🫶👍

Our morning walk was absolute mayhem! 🙈🤣🤣
Everyone was full of energy and having a rare time as you can probably tell from the daft photos below. 🙈😍

I had 2 groups going on this morning:

1. Wee Mabel was on the longline lead so that she still had a little more freedom to play/interact with Olive and Bean❤️...however I'm not sure if that was such a good idea. 🤣🤣🙈
Olive❤️ is like that naughty school friend who leads you a stray. 🤣🤣🤷‍♀️ I was in tears for our first walk with the girlie's.
Louise Roberts your pair are something else! 😍🫶🤣

2. As if that wasn't enough to keep me on my toes.... Sorcha, Beau, Sadie, Blue and Olive (when she wasn't wrestling Mabel) were all chasing each other as well as bombarding sorcha with kisses when the "chase me" game had ended. 🙈🤷‍♀️🤣

Lead the way will be back tomorrow. 🫶🐾🐕

I never got the chance to publish last Mondays new recruit on his first walk with his new pals, as I was on route to the Western general by ambulance for my mum.
Thank you Dave for taking the reigns for the last few drop offs last week... Massively appreciated! 🙏

🎉🎉Lead the Way would like to introduce you all to Maverick! 😍🐕🫶💙🎉🎉

He clicked right into place on his first day, your recruits absolutely loved him too.......how similar does Maverick look to Beau Beau! Same breed and same stunning face! 😍🤣😎

I still have todays walks to publish.......

⚠️⚠️⚠️I would like to take this opportunity to thank our lovely clients for your messages of concern over the past week regarding my mum. 🙏🙏❤️

Val is now home and being very closely monitored for the next 3 months. 💪🙏🙏

It's been a very scary week (especially on Monday afternoon & Tuesday) 😫💔 but mum is doing well for now and is on bed rest for at least 3 weeks, until she goes for more scans and xrays so we all know whats going on.

For now though, we are just keeping a very close eye on her and making sure she is resting with these tablets she is now on. 💪🙏🙏🙏❤️

⚠️⚠️⚠️ Lead the Way will be back tomorrow and for the rest of this week. 🫶🐕🐾

I am looking forward to seeing your pooches folks, thanks again for your amazing support since Monday last week. 😘

I truly have the best clients any self employed business could ask for, you have all been very understanding and loyal.

Lots of love,
Claire Hancock and Family. 🫶👍 ###

⚠️⚠️🙏🙏LEAD THE WAY WILL BE CLOSED FOR THE REMAINDER OF THIS WEEK, OUR REGULAR RECRUITS ARE ALREADY AWARE OF MY FAMILY SITUATION...I WILL KEEP IN TOUCH WITH OUR REGULARS AS THE WEEK PROFRESSES. 🙏🙏❤️🫶🙏

I CAN NOT THANK YOU ALL ENOUGH FOR YOUR UNDERSTANDING, EMPATHY AND CONTINUED COOPERATION....I'D BE LOST WITHOUT YOU ALL STANDING BEHIND ME!

Kind regards,

It was a strange week with regards to the temperatures, we managed walks no bother at the start of the week, however towards the middle and the end was a very different story. 🥵🥵😎

As you all know by now, Lead the way will NOT take any risks, your pooches WELFARE is our main priority and continuing with that care is our main aim and always will be going forward. 🫶💪👍
Some walks were cut short last week and I made sure to message those clients for certain days. 🥵🫶🐕

I'd like to take this opportunity to thank all of our amazing clients for your loyalty but most of all for your understanding this week with weather temperatures.👍🫶🙏

We really do have some amazing groups of dogs together, just look at them all! Super photo genic! 😍😍

I would go into detail with the walks but I have managed to catch up with you all personally and you all know how well your pooch is progressing. 🫶😎🐾

I am looking forward to introducing you all to another new recruit on Monday, but for now, we hope you all have a fantastic weekend.

I will not be on the group chat until after 5pm tomorrow guys, as its Daves birthday celebrations. 💙🥰😘 Another year younger! 🍻🥂🎂

Have a lovely weekend and I look forward to seeing more of those adorable faces on Monday - Friday. 😍🥰😄

Thanks again,
Claire Dave, Buddy & Sorcha. Xx

Little Belle has a few nicknames....are you all ready?!

Here are the top 3:

1. Swamp monster (as she brings the entire forest home with her dedication to any ball 🤣)

2. Belle Belle (blow that whistle and she comes running)

3. Belle the bunny ( Just look at her face! And those elegant back legs go! 🤣)

Thats all your recruits been out this morning folks, only for 40minute walks today, as its been far too hot for our furry friends. 🥵🥵🫶

Thats Lead the way finished for today, as it is just too dangerous for them all this afternoon.

We hope you all enjoy the sunny weather. 🥵🙈😎

Tuesday adventures and its been a really hot one too. 🥵🥵

The mudd daddy was ready to rock and roll this morning, alongside fresh water too. 🫶🐕

We certainly needed it after today's walkies. 🥵😱🤣🐾💪

Thats us finished for the day, as its just too hot for your furr babies folks 🐕🫶🥵 and the beaches are not the cleanest at the moment, zero risks for your recruits! 👍🫶🐕

L.T. W will be back in action tomorrow......

⚠️⚠️PLEASE NOTE: Walks may be cut short if the met office is as accurate as it has been for this week ahead. 🙏😎
IF I feel its too risky for our four legged pals, then I may end up doing pop in visits to let those recruits out who are stuck, but I will keep our regulars posted via group chat if that is the case.
No charge if this happens! ⚠️⚠️

However I'll be out and about early this week, mainly to avoid those peak sunny times, so we should all be grand if i get my skinny a** in gear. 😎👍⚠️⚠️

Thanks again,
Claire, Buddy & Sorcha.

🎉🎉 New recruit alert!🎉🎉

Everyone say hello to Jackson! 💙🐕😃

Jackson💙 joined our group walk this morning and he absolutely smashed his first day out of the park with his new pals here at L.T.W. 😃🫶😎💪⭐️

The group were so welcoming to our new pooch, they included Jackson really well, played with the ball and they were all having a good sniff in a very respectful and calm manner....I couldn't be more proud of Jackson and our recruits this morning.
"What a great first start, I cant wait to see you next Friday little man! Well done for today!" 🥰🫶💪😎

10/10 for group walk number 1. ⭐️🐕

Our second walk was very labrador based with one very happy Rottie. 🐕🫶😃
For this round we had Finn💙, Cooper💙, Cass💙, Our Buddy💛 and Sorcha. 💜😃
Again, my words will never be enough to emphasise just how well these guys click in a group dynamic. ⭐️👌🐕 The bond that Cass and Finn have is unreal and our Buddy is very fond of these boys too. 🥰
He kept close to Cass today, as you will see from the beautiful photos below.

Another lovely group of pooches that were 10/10 together. ⭐️🐕

What another awesome week its been, with the best possible recruits any dog walker could ask for.

Once again, we hope you all have a fantastic weekend folks 🙏 and I look forward to hearing from our regulars on Sunday afternoon/evening. 😘

Its business as normal next week. 🫶🐕💪

All the best,
Claire, Dave, Buddy & Sorcha. Xx
