🟣🔴🟡🟢🟠 THE BALL POOL 🟠🟢🟡🔴🟣

Oh my goodness, when I tell you they LOVE the new ball pool! It’s kept them entertained allll morning, and it’s such a good way to keep them cool with this summer weather we now have! ☀️
Not only does it keep them cool; but it’s such a good way to help stimulate the brain… mental exercise is just important as physical exercise (especially for the spaniels amongst us!) 🐶
I may have over estimated how many balls were needed 😂 but it does mean there will plenty to go round for months to come!

THE BALL POOL IS THE BEST 💖

🐶💖 THE MEMORY WALL 💖🐶

This wall has been a bit of an eye sore so today I decided to do something about it.
I’m going to add the dogs names that come to Woof and Wander and over the years I can look back at who’s been and it can be a beautiful memory wall. 🥹
I’m going to get little Polaroids printed of each dog and add those too 💖
Is it perfect? No
(I’m not very creative or artistic - I know my “Ws” need some work! 😂)
But do I absolutely love it? Yes

Here’s to the memory wall! 💙

🦋🌼 KIRA 🌼🦋

She has the sweetest nature, and was so happy to trot around the field, meet some new friends and have allllll the cuddles 🥹
We cannot wait to see you blossom Kira, we love you!

☀️🌸 PIPPIN 🌸☀️

Oh my goodness, please meet Pippin. He is a Yorkiepoo who is just 5 months old and what an absolute delight this little lad is!
It’s been his first week at daycare this week and he has been the most brave boy, bowled in here with all the confidence in the world, and has made some very special friends! 🥹
We love you Pippin and welcome to Woof and Wander… 💖

27/05/2024

🌸🐶 SEAMUS 🐶🌸

Everybody, please meet Seamus (aka Famous Seamus… he has his own instagram 😂)
What an absolute delight this boy is! He’s fitted in with the Goldie crew and the gang at Woof and Wander perfectly.
He loves the paddock and will happily pad around with a toy in his mouth, before finding a little shade to have his afternoon snooze 🥹💖
He has also absolutely mastered the puppy dog eyes, so you’ll know when it’s dinner time! 😂
We love you Seamus and welcome to the gang! 💙

🇺🇸 TEXAS 🇺🇸

Everybody say hello to the beautiful boy that is Texas! 🥹 he has spent the day with us today and safe to say he absolutely loved it!
He spent most of the morning trying out every bed in the barn, before deciding on two of the smallest ones he could find in the office! 😂
After a very (comfy!) nap, he then spent the afternoon tearing around after his 3 new golden besties and Barney… the paddock was the perfect place for him to get all his zoomies out and boy can this guy run! 💨

Its been an absolute pleasure Texas and we absolutely adore you 💖

🫣💙 PINCH ME MOMENT 💙🫣

We have our own advert! This really is a pinch me moment… to have my own advert, in a a local magazine, advertising my doggy daycare business, that was built from scratch 🙏
I think I’m still in a little bit of shock that this is happening!

Have a look through summer addition (available in a couple of weeks) and you’ll see this little number 🐶

Tell your friends, family, dogs, cats, nans about us… we really do love what we do, and can’t wait to look after Launceston’s furry friends!

Woof 💖⭐️💙

💖👌🏻 THE BEST NEWS… 👌🏻💖

I am incredibly happy and proud to announce that not only have I been passed my inspection and been licensed today… but my new daycare was given 4 out of a possible 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️! (I think I’m a little in shock and awe too!)
To be able to hit most the of the higher standards that the council ask for is pretty hard for a new daycare business, but I couldn’t be more of the moon that we managed it!
It really does take an army and I couldn’t be more grateful for my mum, landlord, all the contractors and my friends and family who had believed in me all along (even when I was very stressed and there were a lot of tears! 🥲)

We really can’t wait for you all to see it all now it’s finished.. so many exiting adventures await our new furry friends 💖

Meet and greets start next week… if you want to come and have a look around and see if we would be a good fit for you and a pup, give me a call on 07503025277 to chat things through!

YAY! 🥰
WOOF! 🐶

🌲 🐶 THE PADDOCK 🐶 🌲

The paddock is finished and we are absolutely over the moon! It’s been tried and tested by Chester, Quinn and Barney and I have been told that it’s the perfect place for zoomies, fetch and even has a nice shady corner for an afternoon snooze! 🥰

For extra peace of mind I have added an anti dig fence all the way round the edge, just in case those little paws want a bit of a scratch! 😂

We are soooo nearly there (inspection next week) and we cannot wait for the summer days with this paddock filled with all our furry friends 💖

Woof! 🐾

🌈⚡️ TON ⚡️🌈

Everybody, meet Ton! This is our first official customer, who will be joining us every Thursday and Friday for some great fun at Woof and Wander!
I’ve known Ton for 3 years (he used to be my fave customer in the bar I used to work in!). His parents have opened an amazing new sandwich bar in Newquay, so he’ll be coming to play a couple of days a week! 🥰
Ton has to be one of the sweetest, most well behaved Goldie’s I’ve ever had the pleasure of looking after… so well behaved in fact he likes to hold his own lead and walk himself!

We cannot wait for you to join Woof and Wander Ton 💖

PS I promise we take all other breeds, not just Goldie’s 😂

✨💐 BITS AND BOBS 💐✨

Whilst we are STILL waiting for the floor to dry (how has it only been a week?!) we are getting the little bits and bobs ready.
Mum has been an absolute angel and has been picking up bargains all over Cornwall including all those dog beds (and that’s not even all of them!) The pups definitely won’t be short of somewhere comfy to sit! 🥰
My landlord is also a complete legend and is busy squirrelling away in the barn getting the “sleeping quarters” all cosy. These were formerly the stables which are being boarded out, painted and sealed, will have heaters and all the comfy beds, so that it’s the perfect place for some afternoon snoozes. 💤

PS I think I’m going to need the Mud Daddy if this silly wet Cornish weather dosent sort itself out! 😂 🌧️

07/04/2024

✨💖 WE HAVE A FLOOR 💖✨

This might not look much to anyone else, but to me is a HUGEEEE milestone in getting things ready for my council inspection.
These photos show 32 tonnes of concrete that had to be mixed by one company, pumped in by another, and laid by another… all while my landlord and me were working our other jobs!
It’s been a stressful couple of weeks, but we are over the moon with it and I am blown away by the efforts of the concrete suppliers and my builders!
Only the entire paddock to fence and we are ready 😂🤦🏻‍♀️🥰

WE CANNOT WAIT TO WELCOME ALL OF THE FURRY FACES 🐶

04/04/2024

📝💖 PAPERWORK 💖📝

Things are really coming along at the farm (just waiting for the cement floor to dry so we can paint it!) so its now time to get the paperwork in order📚
As you can imagine, when it comes to looking after dogs there is a lot of policies, procedures and legislation that needs covering and rightly so.
Here at Woof and Wander we want to be able to give the best daycare to your pups as we can, and half of that comes down to making sure all the important documents and papers are in place 💁🏻‍♀️
So if anyone needs me, I’ll be found playing with my new printer, trying to understand how to insert the ink and surrounded by the hundreds of pages I need! 😂

Ps as you can I see I had an extra “helper” today. ✨newflash ✨ none of them were very helpful 🐶

✨💙 QUINN 💙✨

Whilst we are having a few days off over Easter, it would be lovely for you all to get to know Quinn…

It became clear after a while that Chester would love a friend, so i started looking at rescue centres. Before long, I saw a photo of Quinn, and instantly fell in love. It was like a match made in heaven as he was also a boy, same age (minus a month) to Chester, and needed a loving home 🥹
Quinn had originally been a breeding dog, and lived in a barn. His only human contact was when he was fed and when he was taken out to mate. When they had no more want for him, they dumped him 😭
Considering what he has been through, he is just the loveliest, sweetest boy whose main aim in life is to get all the cuddles. Most evenings he will be found in my lap, paws tucked up, snoring away 🥹 his best friends are Chester and my mums Guinea pigs, with his favourite person definitely being Grandma!

This sweet boy can’t wait to welcome all the newbies and settle any first day nerves 💖

29/03/2024

✨🐶 CHESTER 🐶✨

Whilst we are waiting for the floor to be laid, let me tell you a little bit about Chester.
He was born over in Ireland, where at 6 months old he was rescued as his breeders wernt looking after him 😭 A lovely family bought him down to Cornwall, where he was kept as a outdoor farm dog.
They then put him up for sale, as they were moving to Spain and couldn’t take him with them. So this is when I I got to bring him home, a year and a half ago!
He really is just the best boy… he is a working line golden retriever so has energy in bucket loads, along with a very wired mind! I sometimes think out on walks he would just keep going and going 😂
His absolute favourite things in the world is the ocean (he likes to go fishing for rocks), playing with his little brother Quinn, staying at grandmas and of course, food!
He will be the most perfect meet and greet dog at Woof and Wander, as he is ever so gentle with the little uns, and loves nothing more than a game of chase with the bigger ones!

He really can’t wait to meet all his new friends 💖🐶 Woof!

27/03/2024

🌲✨ FENCING ✨🌲

Now that the weather has decided to calm down (have we just had 5 months of rain or what?!) and the sun has come out, we are able to get out in to the paddock and start the fencing!
Everything has now been measured up, fencing has been ordered and contractors have been booked to get it up to spec 💁🏻‍♀️
The paddock will also be rolled flat and some grass seed put down, to get it ready for all those little paws 🐾
Have you seen a better view from a dog field?! 🥰
Everything is coming together now and we are soooo excited!

Meet little Elsie, the newest family dog and Mitsys adopted sister 🥹
This little lady has been keeping an eye on proceedings, “helping” lay the floor and generally keeping every one smiling with her hilarious personality!

💁🏻‍♀️💫 THE OFFICE 💫💁🏻‍♀️

I have big plans for my little office… but at the moment she looks like this!
It was once a stable, to which we are slowly turning in a little corner where I can get all my paperwork done (and maybe have some quiet dog cuddles 😂)
At the moment it’s a dumping ground and where we sit to have lunch!
But the floor will be painted, all the bits of an office I need will be added… and lots of snuggly dog beds on the floor as well of course! 🧡

Watch this space…
