Thursday was my first day back and I think it would be fair to say that my wee gran was definitely watching over myself and all the pooches. ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ™

It was such a beautiful day ๐Ÿ˜Ž and we had 6 Robbins all on the first walk. ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ’œ
If that's not a sign I don't know what is!

We decided to head for the river walk since it was so beautiful, everyone had a rare time splashing around playing with sticks, Little Coco was in her element. ๐Ÿ˜

What more could a dog walker ask for!? ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿฅฐ

โš ๏ธWe would like to introduce you all to Cash๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ˜ (left picture) and Herbie.๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿ•โš ๏ธ

Today was their first day with Lead the way and they were both outstanding. ๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ‘๐ŸŒŸ

As it was only day one for these beautiful boys, I decided to keep them both on lead.
Cash was a little nervous to begin with, however after 30 minutes or so, I could see Cash starting to come out of his shell more and more. ๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ•
Herbie๐Ÿ’™ was not phased at all, he was wanting to interact with everyone and was coming back to myself instantly. I don't think it will be too long before these pair are off lead within the group, as they were outstanding this morning. ๐ŸŒŸ๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ•

Buddy๐Ÿ’™, Milo๐Ÿ’™, Mutleyโค๏ธ, Bud๐Ÿ’› and Sorcha๐Ÿ’œ were absolutely brilliant with our new arrivals. The pack dynamic today was perfect. ๐Ÿ’ฏ๐Ÿ•๐Ÿพ

Well done boys and girls! ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ๐Ÿ•

For those of you who already knew my wee gran and sent flowers, cards and lovely messages, I'd like to thank you all from the bottom of my heart.

We were with my gran on the morning she sadly passed and it's been one of the hardest things our family has had to go through since Nana, Papa and Tanya. ๐Ÿ’”
Not a day or morning has went by that I've not thought of you Gran. I miss you soo much and I promise I will continue to make you proud. ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ˜˜

It's not been easy the past 19 days to get up and put the business first when you lose someone so important in your life. ๐Ÿ˜”๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ๐Ÿ’”
My gran always made sure I was OK and if I ever needed anything she would never see me struggle.
She was a wonderful woman fillied with light, empathy, compassion, super caring, would always put anyone before herself and really one in a million and I am so proud to be able to have called you MY GRAN! ๐Ÿค—๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ’œ

I have so many amazing memories with you and grandad, as a child and an adult. I will cherish those for years to come.

Your necklace is never coming off gran! ๐Ÿ˜˜๐Ÿ˜˜

I know where my love for animals came from too, the apple certainly doesn't fall far from the tree. The love for dogs in our family runs very very deep. I am so proud of you Gran! ๐Ÿ’ฏ๐Ÿ’ฏ

I love you so much, you'll forever be with your family and all the dogs. ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ’œ

You may be gone but you WILL NEVER be forgotten. I love you with all my heart gran!

Tuesday is going to be a very tough day for us all. ๐Ÿ’”

Thank you all for your understanding regarding next Monday, Tueaday and Wednesday.

I don't know where I would be without having the most understanding and loyal clients.

Thank you all again.

Sincerely,
Claire Hancock. Xx

60 photos below with 3 lead the way adventures. ๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐Ÿ•๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ’ฏ๐Ÿ˜Ž

It's been a beautiful day for us all and surprisingly very warm in the sunshine. ๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ•

Lots of stick and ball chasing today for all 3 walkies and yet again everyone has been outstanding. ๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐ŸŒŸ๐Ÿ•

โš ๏ธWe even had an epic morning on our first walk as a fighter jet โœˆ๏ธโœˆ๏ธ was having fun, before I knew it, I was waving my hat at him and he swooped back around and done an upside down flip so close to me, we were even facing him as he went flying past before he tilted his wings and blasted off past traprain law. Your recruits were loving it too as zoomies followed shortly after. ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜ƒโš ๏ธ

Fingers crossed it's another lovely day tomorrow for our Friday pooches. ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™

We hope you all enjoy the photos and we will be back tomorrow for more fun and games with the best pooches ever. ๐Ÿ’ฏ๐Ÿค—

Walk number 2 and 3 are together folks.

I was planning on going to Pressmennan woods this afternoon, however the beautiful Scottish weather meant I decided to rethink that idea. ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ™ˆ๐Ÿ•

Instead, we headed for our usual spot as it's bang in the middle of Dunbar and East Linton, which means your dogs are not in the van too long after collection. ๐Ÿ’ฏ๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐Ÿพ

It also means I can give the dogs all the care and attention they deserve in the full hour that they are in my care. ๐Ÿค๐Ÿ’ฏ๐Ÿฅฐ

We had an absolute blast on all walks today. ๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿค—

Huge shout out to Milo๐Ÿ’™, Ted๐Ÿ’™, Buddy๐Ÿ’™ and Levi๐Ÿ’™ for their progress today, gold stars for the boys! ๐Ÿ•๐Ÿ’™๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ

To be honest, you should all get a gold star for today as you were all outstanding for Aunty Claire and Lead the Way

We will be back in action tomorrow for a very very busy day. ๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ‘Œ

If I'm not with your pooch for the usual time tomorrow, please don't be alarmed as we have traffic lights in Dunbar and East Linton at the moment, so I may be running slightly behind schedule but I WILL NEVER FORGET any of your recruits so please don't worry. ๐Ÿ’ฏ๐Ÿค๐Ÿ˜˜

Thank you all for another amazing day doing the best job ever!

Another smashing group of recruits together with plenty of stick chasing, before Sula, Mutley and Sorcha had the bouncy ball completely destroyed. Love it! ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ

It's Tuesday already, where does the time go folks!? ๐Ÿ˜”๐Ÿ˜ฌ

Just look at those faces below, cuteness overload for Lead the way today! ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐Ÿ˜

We've had 2 adventures and absolutely everyone was having a ball. ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ•๐Ÿ˜Ž

We look forward to another pawsome day tomorrow with more amazing recruits. ๐Ÿฅฐ

โš ๏ธโš ๏ธJust a heads up:โš ๏ธโš ๏ธ

I have contacted a few pooches parents to see if you would be interested in myself taking a few of your recruits (those who need some recall training or confidence building) to unleashed at the end of March beginning if April. ๐Ÿ•๐Ÿพ๐Ÿค—

If you feel this is something you'd be interested in, please don't hesitate to ask. I can add you onto the list as I've already got 2 or 3 of our regulars interested.

Best wishes,
Claire Hancock. Xx

I had a helping hand today with my better half, David Martin. ๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ˜
Which meant we were able to do one big group walk with the following recruits.........
Buddy๐Ÿ’™, Finn๐Ÿ’™, Ted๐Ÿ’™, Bud๐Ÿ’›, Cass๐Ÿ’™, Kylo๐Ÿ’™, Rileyโค๏ธ, Beauโค๏ธ, Sorcha๐Ÿ’œ and Blue. ๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ˜€

Plenty of happy puppers with great recall for our big group walk today. ๐Ÿค—๐Ÿ• (I think Dave was impressed with you all guys! Well done.๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐Ÿค—)

Ted๐Ÿ’™ and Rileyโค๏ธ were with myself getting lots of attention and treats in the process of training, whilst the rest of the group were happy playing fetch with Dave and the unpredictable bouncy ball, much to the groups satisfaction. ๐Ÿคฃ

Once we got back to the van ๐Ÿš it was refreshments ๐Ÿ’ง๐Ÿšฟ all round for everyones awesome energy levels and doggy etiquette. ๐Ÿ˜Ž

Lead the way will be back tomorrow but we've had a fantastic day spent with the best pooches. ๐Ÿ’ฏ๐Ÿค—

What a group! ๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿ˜˜๐Ÿ˜€

That's the van clean and fresh for another week........ Dogs must wear slippers now folks! ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ™ˆ

Could you imagine them walking with slippers on in the mud, all 4 paws glued to the ground refusing to move. ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜œ

Sorchas๐Ÿ’œ definitely not wanting to move today, look at that eye and toung! ๐Ÿ˜ด๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ™ˆ

It's Friday already!!

Last walk of the week and we've unfortunately had to cut it short by 20mins, due to these very windy conditions. ๐Ÿฅบ๐Ÿฅบ๐Ÿ˜ข

โš ๏ธsafety for your pooches, vehicle and myself will always come first when the weather is involved. ๐Ÿ’ฏ

Thank you for your continued understanding. โš ๏ธ

Once again though your pooches were phenomenal despite the conditions. ๐Ÿ˜ƒ
