So I've been walking this big fella for a few months now, he's such a sweetheart that takes everything in his stride. We are not quite upto full time walks yet due to his ailments but he's getting closer with every walk we do. He loves nothing more than a good sniffy walk and according to his mum he recognises the top of my head when I walk past the bushes to collect him so he ends up being a giddy kipper 😁. Super proud of you big fella we will be walking the full hour before you know it 🥰
I don't think I'm getting my ball back off this big fella 🥰
So this how this gorgeous girl greets me now, after months gaining her trust I can finally say that she trusts me 100% now. She still has her no go areas and I respect them 100% and I will not cross those boundaries at all
Happy happy aunty Gem 😍😁💚🐕🦺
I've been doing temporary walks for this handsome dude while his dad recovers from his operation but I'm pleased to say that he will be a regular to the Gingers pack, welcome aboard big fella we are going to have so much fun 😁
When you get sent pictures like this. Looks like donut is coming with us today and yup donut came with us 😍😍
Since I started Gingers up I have to say that my biggest achievement so far is gaining the trust and building up a strong bond with this gorgeous girl. We have gone from myself sat in the cold in the garden and her inside growling and snarling teeth showing, giving her a treat with oven gloves on as I value my fingers too much even though she still had a nibble now and again 😂, I was ready to give up so many times as I thought it could be done in a few weeks to which it taught me a lesson which is patience is the key. We are now at a stage where I can give her treats without the gloves on and she takes them so gently from my hand, we now go out on walks with her slip lead on as she feels more comfortable with that than me trying to clip her lead on her collar. I get the most fantastic display of tap dancing and brilliant butt wiggles now when I open the door. She still has her boundaries and I will not cross them at all. Oh and if she has her donut on her walks or near her she is a happy girl. A happy pooch is a happy aunty Gem,its been a long road to get this far and no doubt we still have a long way to go but I'm happy to have got this far 😁😁
I am so flipping happy today 😁
After 12 months of building up this lady's trust and going from myself sat in the garden and her in the house not letting me in growling and barking to then allowing me in the house and sitting on the sofa with her, having gentle strokes not rushing her as its all on her terms,to been able to let her out onto the little patch of grass at the front of their house and back again. This gorgeous lady has had a very bad start in life but is now with an amazing family that has supported me with what I've been doing with her.
We FINALLY went on our first walk today ,she was so well behaved an absolute star. It was only a short walk but we will be gradually building it up as the weeks go on,
This why I love my job and the pooches I walk. Happy pooch Happy Gemma 😁😁
Love walking these two cuties together 😍😍
