After a time of rest and recuperation, it was lovely to be back out in the woods with my friends today. There's always beautiful greetings after time apart and the most heartfelt welcome of all came from our little pocket monster Millie, she was my first pick up this morning and thoroughly served as a reminder of how much I love this job, and these characters that make it not a job, but, a way of life! And that you have to roll with the punches. Thanks Millie โ™ฅ๏ธ๐Ÿ•

Hope you've all remembered that I'm now on holiday until Monday 24th.
It's been a totally s**t week with little Jake missing since Tuesday. Feeling frantic and exhausted and not at all happy about taking a week off. I love all of your dogs so much, and it's just awful to lose one that was entrusted to my care. Wondering how I can move forward from this terrible experience...but mostly praying that Jake is ok and soon returns to the safety of his home and family.

The blacks. Luna Jaco, Tessa Finn and Monty.
Such a pity that we didn't have Digger today to make a full set!
By the way black dogs are really difficult to photograph, and that is apparently the reason why they are harder for rescues to rehome ๐Ÿ˜ฎ

It doesn't always go according to plan! Missy again recognises when it's her turn and doesn't wait to be called. In all fairness Luna is new to this and did well to wait so long. We absolutely didn't expect Clyde to break though!! He's such an awesome guy usually, so we let this blip slide ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜

These dogs really have over achieved with this! I have deliberately put them in the order that would be most challenging too. I knew out of all of them that Estrella and Tessa would find this the easiest, so called them first! Next Jake who knows this well, but doing it in the woods really upped the difficulty and distraction levels for him. Millie is not good at holding a sit if other dogs are moving, so it took a few attempts! And I knew that Jaco's huge FOMO would mean being left until last would be really tough for him! I'm so pleased with them all ๐Ÿ˜
And no Billie meant I had to balance my phone on a log which was a whole other challenge ๐Ÿ˜‚

It was a proud parent moment when Billie sent me this video! Whilst house/dog sitting at the weekend, she was tasked with moving the geese off the football pitch by the lake in Lydney. The dogs belong to a long term client and we've known them for a number of years, they aren't trained working dogs, and have never done anything like this before! But because of the relationship they have with Billie, she is able to communicate to them that they have a job to do, and so they do it brilliantly just to please her!! ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜

Walked into a load of boar on the path this afternoon with Digger, Tessa, Estrella and Missy! Well behaved doggies came smartly to heel and allowed me to scare them off so we could get past!
Have a lovely weekend!

Billie here again!
Estrella and I have recently discovered "Monday challenges" on Instagram made by and , and we've been giving them a go!
They're fun, give you ideas for things to do with your dog to strengthen that bond, and there's no preasure to do them if you can't.
This particular one was sitting your dog up, walk away a few steps, throw a dummy (or ball, like in Estrellas case) to both sides of the dog, then send your dog for the FIRST one you threw. Most dogs will try to go after the second one as that's the most exciting one at the moment.
I spent a while having to stop Estrella from going to the wrong one, this definitely wasn't our first attempt! I'm so proud of her as she's almost 10, and a far cry from a gundog, but she's all I've got, and we enjoyed the challenge together.
If you have a go, let us know how you get on!

Billie and I managed this huge group this afternoon! It was a lot easier than you might expect, we kept 3 on lead and the other 7 recall perfectly to sit on the verge to allow passers by to, well, pass by!

We seem to have spaniels coming out of our ears at the moment! Today they even outnumbered the labs, and we walked a big group of 6 of those this afternoon! EIGHT spaniels today, and 3 of them we walked twice ๐Ÿคช bloody nutters the lot of them ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ
Plus 3 lovely terriers and 1 exceptional collie ๐Ÿ˜
