I wrote this poem when I was 15, just after we got Heidi and I was in recovery from anorexia. I stumbled across it the other day, and wanted to share the affect dogs can have on our lives ❤️

Heidi

When I first saw you,
you were barely skin and bone,
with an ugly sadness in your eyes,
and hard bone beneath my palm.
Love at first sight is true
in the case of when I met you.
I don't know why but you stuck out of many,
one amongst the screaming barks,
one amongst the abandoned hearts.
Seeing the damage of a starving soul,
made reality slap me in the face.
Your big eyes and shining mind
helped me wave goodbye to my enemy.
Because your skin and bone
was a reflection of what I had become,
and that was what was killing me.
So Heidi, I can barely believe my luck.
we never imagined such a pure soul
to come into our lives.
The kennels were scary,
your old owner was cruel,
But here, you are loved
Unconditionally.

So the fake review seems to have finally been taken down (I can't see it anyway!) But my rating is still down to 4.6/5 so if any of my clients fancy leaving a review, it would be much appreciated 🥰🌼

SHOW US YOUR HERDING BREEDS!

How do you make sure your herding breeds needs are met - especially if they aren't 'working' like they may have been bred to?

These guys can be incredible pets - but there's a good chance they may not be the best choice for a first time dog owner. You could think of them as a powerful sports car - not the best to learn to drive in! There is a huge variation within the breed group as well, with some breeds being more 'specialised' and requiring a particularly dedicated owner.

Our typical modern lifestyle that is comparatively sedentary in contrast to a few generations ago means that these guys often really struggle being 'pets'. They thrive creating order out of chaos and when they have a job to do.

As always, all dogs are individuals, but genetics do matter and what the dog was originally bred to do gives you a heads up about what behaviours you are more likely to see.

Check out https://kimbropheylegscourses.thinkific.com/?ref=54f439 if you would like to deep dive about different breed groups.
