Warm & Sunny Wednesday afternoon Sniffari for Miss Lola and Miss Nelly 🐾🐶🩷☀️
When I arrived for Lola she hadn’t heard me come in and must have been busy snoozing away on the sofa as she jumped down as soon as she saw me and came rushing over making her cute little excited squeaky noises at me, jumping up, running round in a circle then jumping up at me again, she is honestly the happiest girl & such a cutie pie 😆🥰🐾🐶🩷 To be fair all the beagles react really similarly when I walk in, they’re all excited to see me, they all make cute squeaky noises & jump up and most of all they’re all thinking of their beagle bellies and the quickest and easiest way to snaffle treats from me 😆🐶🌭
This afternoon I decided to take the girls on a new walk which is only a really short distance to where we normally go. Both Lola and Nelly greeted each other in their usual beagle way jumping up at each other and then we set off. On the field I let both girls off their leads and they both stayed pretty close to me spending the majority of the time with their noses to the ground sniffing all the new smells and scents as we walked 🐾🐶🩷
Both girls paddled their paws in the river and then we got going again. Lola and Nelly both had fun running and jumping in the long grass chasing each other then breaking off to sniff again. Occasionally I threw down some treats and asked both girls to sniff and this took them a good few minutes with both Lola and Nelly completely engrossed in finding the treats and sniffing the area as they went 🐾🐶🩷🌭💦
We didn’t see anyone else out walking and no other dogs so Nelly remained off lead for whole walk which was a nice change for her. Nelly can’t seem to keep her 4 paws on the ground whenever she meets people so I’m always looking all around when we’re out & put her back on her lead before we even get close to people. So because of this me & Nelly are going back to training within the next month to hopefully stop Nelly from doing this & we’re also hopefully going to be doing some agility training, so watch this space 🐶🩷 Lola on the other hand generally ignores/avoids other people and can also ignore other dogs too, she’s more than happy in her own company, doing her thing 🥰🐶
Lola and Nelly had a great time today checking out a new route and it definitely kept their noses super busy! Neither of them needed washing down so when I got Lola home I replenished her water and left her happily munching on a chickens foot and once home with Nelly i replenished her water whilst she also munched on a chickens foot and then she snoozed the afternoon away 🐾🐶🩷💦🐓

Sunny & breezy Wednesday morning walk for little Miss Nala 🐾🐶🩷☀️
Today I collected Nala from her hooman Nana’s house and she was a little distracted when I arrived as someone had food & when she did see me she honestly didn’t know what to do with herself, stay where the food was or come and greet me, it was a difficult decision for her to make but she did come to me in the end making her usual squeaking sound at me and wagging her tail whilst keeping her eyes on the food 😆🐶🌭
As we were leaving the house another dog was walking past so Nala did react a little as it was completely unexpected but she quickly settled into walk and once we got on the park Nala wasn’t bothered by any of the dogs we saw, at one point there were 3 different dogs round us and Nala just looked at them all, no reaction at all, I praised Nala giving her lots of fuss and some treats 👏🏼🐾🐶🩷
Nala followed her nose sniffing new smells and scents & as we walked Nala made lots of eye contact with me checking in with me and again I made a fuss of Nala each time. Occasionally I threw down some treats asking Nala to sniff which she’s more than happy to do. I had Nala’s lead longer today so she could follow her nose and have a run about on the fields in the long grass. At one point we were walking next to some train lines and a train went past us, I was expecting Nala to react by trying to get away but Nala didn’t react at all instead she just stood at the fence and watched it go past 🐾🐶🩷🌭👏🏼
Fabulous warm & sunny morning hourly walk for little Miss Nala. Once home I gave Nala a few treats and left her waiting with her Nana for her hooman mum to collect her 🥰🐾🐶🩷🌭

Warm & breezy Tuesday morning Sniffari for little Miss Nala 🐾🐶🩷
When I arrived Nala was already waiting for my arrival, sat on the back of the couch looking out of the window, as soon as she saw me I could see her tail wagging and she was wriggling around all excited, Nala gives me such a lovely welcome every single time I arrive to take her out & she really is such a big softie. I think because Nala doesn’t trust easily and likes to take her time getting to know you & figuring you out that now she’s built up her trust and confidence in me seeing her all excited when I arrive really does make my heart melt completely. All my patience, care, love & respect for Nala and her space has paid off & I actually feel very privileged that she’s trusted me because she’s the most sweetest, funniest, most loveable and full of beagle character that you could ever wish for 🐶🩷🙏🏼
Nala walked really well on her lead as she always does, she’s either by my side or just a head of me leading the way. We didn’t see any other dogs out and Nala reacted just slightly towards a guy but quickly stopped and happily carried on sniffing away as we walked 🐾🐶🩷
Nala enjoyed running and jumping in the long grass & then either lying down in it all or slyly trying to munch it without me noticing 😆🐾🐶🩷 Nala had a brilliant idea to go rolling in what I believe was 🦊💩 all under her chin and she loved it so much she tried to go back for round 2 😆🤦🏻‍♀️👀 Needless to say that once we were back I gave Nala a quick wash down and towel dry 💦🐶
Lovely & warm hourly morning walk for Miss Nala 🐾🐶🩷

Warm & humid Monday morning walk for little Miss Nala 🐾🐶🩷
When I arrived Nala came rushing to the door to greet me, making her little squeaky noises at me & jumping up for a fuss but to mainly check I’d brought treats with me 😆🐾🐶🩷🌭
When we got going on our walk Nala kept checking in with me, looking and making eye contact with me which I always praise her for and give her some fuss. Nala was happy doing her usual beagle thing sniffing as we walked and occasionally stopping if something caught her nose as well as having a good l👀k round to see if anyone else was about 🐾🐶🩷
We saw a couple of other dogs out and Nala didn’t react to either of them as each time we crossed over and I asked Nala to sniff as i threw a couple of treats down to distract her 🐾🐶🩷🙏🏼
Nala walked well on her lead either by my side or just slightly in front and I also lengthened her lead so she had more freedom to follow her nose and have a run about in the long grass.
Once home Nala’s hooman mum had already replenished her water so I left Nala with a chickens foot to munch on 🐾🐶🩷💦🐓

Cool & Breezy Wednesday lunchtime walk for little Miss Lola and Miss Nelly 🐾🐶🩷
When I arrived for Lola she was really happy to see, racing round, making cute little funny noises, jumping up with her tail wagging, I think someone missed me and the feelings are completely mutual, so I made of fuss of Lola and then we went outside where Nelly was waiting with my son Henry. Lola & Nelly greeted each other in their usual way, jumping up at each other and then Lola went over to Henry for some more fussing before we got going 🐾🐶🩷🥰
Lola & Nelly walked just slightly ahead both following their noses and once we were in the woods I let both girls off their leads and they ran ahead in different directions before catching each other up and then generally sticking close together with both girls paddling their paws in the river 🐾🐶💦
Out on the fields I threw the ball for them a few times and Lola and Nelly were both baying at me each time I had the ball, it sounded like I was walking scooby doo 🎾🐶😆
As we walked I threw down some treats a couple of times and both Lola and Nelly love using their nose to hunt to treats down & in the long grass they both had an absolute blast running and jumping through it and also picking up scents for rabbits 🐇🐾🐶🩷🌭
Back home Lola and Nelly needed a good wash down and towel dry and they both make me laugh when I do this as they both want drying at the same time and try to barge each other out of the way for the fluffy towels, so I end up wrapping one in a towel whilst I dry the other one off 🐶😆💦🤣 Beagles and their fluffy blankets and towels, they really are big softies who love to feel pampered and all snuggly 🐾🐶🩷🥰
I left Lola happily munching on a chickens foot & I also replenished her water 💦🐔 once home with Nelly she climbed into her bed with her chicken foot and I didn’t hear peep from her till teatime other than her snoring 💤 🐶🥰

Cool & breezy Wednesday morning walk for little Miss Nala 🐾🐶🩷
When I arrived Nala was already waiting for me by l👀king through the window from her sofa and when she saw me I could see her tail wagging super excitedly 🥰🐶
When we got going on our walk Nala had a good nosey round and gave a little bark at a lad who was out walking but quickly stopped and settled into her walk sniffing and stopping occasionally as we walked 🐾🐶🩷
Nala was again really relaxed throughout our walk even happily walking behind a black lab that she normally reacts at 👏🏼🐾🐶🩷
As we walked I occasionally threw down some treats in the grass and asked Nala to sniff which she loves to do. I also had Nala’s lead longer for her giving her more freedom to follow scents and run about if she wanted too 🐾🐶🩷
When we got back Nala was trying her best to snaffle treats from my treat pouch even going as far as getting a little gobby at me 😆🐶🌭 me and Nala’s hoomans wouldn’t mind but I’d already given her a chickens foot to munch on! 😆🐶👀🤔Beagles are great actors/actresses you know?! Especially if they were given parts where they’ve to act like they’re starving 👀😂🐾🐶🩷🌭 Fabulous morning hourly walk for little Miss Nala and she should’ve had a pretty settled day as there wasn’t too much work going on in her home today 🥰🐾🐶🩷

Lovely warm & sunny Tuesday afternoon walk for little Miss Sandy 🐾🐶🩷☀️
When I arrived Sandy came rushing to the door to greet me lying on her back for belly rubs and then Sandy got the zoomies, racing from me to the garden and back and then the garden and so on 😆🐾🐶🩷
Once we got going Sandy walked well on her lead upto the field and once there I switched her lead to a longline so Sandy could have more freedom to follow her nose & run round to burn off some of her energy as she really is a little live wire 😆🐾🐶🩷
Sandy did a lot of sniffing on the fields as well as running around and listening to my commands recalling really well. When we got to the woods Sandy raced around in the river paddling her paws and occasionally stopping to have a nosey round to see if any other dogs were about 🐾🐶🩷💦👀
On the fields we practiced Sandy’s recall and wait commands and Sandy did brilliantly with both of these even when other dogs were around us 👏🏼🐾🐶🩷🎾
Sandy also made friends with another cocker spaniel that was 18mths old and had a blast racing round the fields with him getting all giddy. He was also being walked with his mum and his dad & all 3 were gorgeous dogs 😍🐾🐶🩷
Once home Sandy had a drink and finished off her food and hopefully she settled for some of the afternoon for her hoomans 🤞🏼🐾🐶🩷

Lovely & warm Tuesday lunchtime walk for Miss Darcy 🐾🐶🩷
When I arrived Darcy greeted me at door wagging her tail and enjoying having a fuss made of her whilst she also made sure I had treats with me 😆🐾🩷🌭
Darcy sat nicely whilst I put her collar and lead on and walked well upto the field & then I removed her lead and Darcy ran ahead. It wasn’t long before Darcy spied a butterfly and set off chasing it through the long grass and jumping up to try a catch it 🦋😆🐾🐶🩷
Darcy listened to commands really well on the field but once we got to the woods Darcy paddled her paws in the river 🐾💦 and about halfway through the woods Darcy’s ears seemed to switch completely off 👀 so I placed Darcy back on her lead whilst we walked through the rest of the woods and Darcy walked well without pulling & when we got to another field I let Darcy off her lead and again she listened well to my commands 🐾🐶🩷
Whilst we were out we met a beautiful English Setter amongst loads of other dogs out and the ones we came across Darcy either ignored them or greeted them nicely it just depended on how busy she was following her nose at the time 😆🐾🐶🩷
Lovely warm lunchtime hourly walk for Miss Darcy. Once home Darcy’s hooman mum prepared her lunch and I made a fuss of Darcy who by now was giving me paw slaps to stroke her paws as well as having a sulky face on her whilst also attempting to snaffle treats from me, I think Darcy knows she’s not seeing me next week 👀🤷🏻‍♀️🐾🐶🩷 But she will of course get extra cuddles and fuss to make up for it the week after from me 🥰🐾🐶🩷

Lovely & warm Tuesday morning walk for little Miss Nala 🐾🐶🩷
When I arrived Nala was her usual happy little self to see me and came rushing over for a fuss and to obviously check I’d brought her some treats, always thinking of her beagle belly 😆🌭🐶👀
Nala’s been a little stressed at home due to a lot of work currently being carried out on her home. So lots of sudden banging & loud noises, work tools, plus work men wearing hi vis tops, all of which are triggers for Nala. However with everything considered Nala’s actually coped much better than I thought she was going too. She’s also very quickly relaxed into her walks within the first 5 minutes of us getting out and has actually been a lot calmer & more relaxed whilst we’ve been out as well as being more tolerant of other dogs walking nearby especially her last couple of walks which were on a fairly busy park 👏🏼🐾🐶🩷
Nala was no different today whilst we were out, she even had 2 little westies walking right past her and she just looked at them, no reaction just l👀king 👏🏼🐾🐶🩷 I’ve been making a huge fuss of Nala each time she’s not reacted giving her lots of praise and a treat 👏🏼🐾🐶🩷
Nala spends the majority of her walks either have a good nosey round to see who else is about or she’s following her nose having a good sniff round. On the grassy areas I’ve given Nala a longer lead so she can follow her nose having a little more freedom when it’s safe to do so and also having a run about 🐾🐶🩷
Fabulous warm hourly morning walk for little Miss Nala. Once home Nala decided the workmen needed to be hurried a long a little so she thought she’d let them know by getting a little gobby at them 👀😆🐾🐶🩷

Lovely & warm late Monday morning walk for Miss Darcy 🐾🐶🩷☀️
When i arrived Darcy was sat waiting patiently for me in her room at the gate wagging her tail all happy to see me, so I made a fuss of her and then Darcy sat nicely whilst I got her collar and lead on and we got going with Darcy walking well upto the field where she again sat nicely whilst I released her lead and gave her a treat. Darcy was ent ahead but stayed insight and kept checking back making sure I was following. We met a few other dogs on the field and Darcy was running up and down with one of them and then we carried on with our walk upto the woods 🐾🐶🩷
Darcy paddled her paws in the river as we walked through the woods as the park got busier with people I popped Darcy’s lead back on but left it longer so she could still follow her nose 🐾🐶🩷💦
On another field where it was quieter I let Darcy off again and she had a run about following her nose and I occasionally threw down some treats asking Darcy to sniff 🐾🐶🩷🌭
On the way back Darcy kept her eyes p👀led for squirrels 🐿️ but we didn’t see any out.
Brilliant warm hourly walk for Miss Darcy, once back home I left Darcy with her hooman mum who was going to make Darcy’s lunch up for her & I gave her a few treats before leaving 🌭🐾🐶🩷

Lovely and warm Monday morning walk for little Miss Nala 🐾🐶🩷☀️
When I arrived at Nala’s Nana’s house, Nala was sat at the door waiting for me in the lounge wagging her tail and really happy to see me 🐾🐶🩷
Nala was happy to get going on her walk having a good nosey round and stopping to sniff every so often as we walked. When we got to the park I lengthened Nala’s lead so she had a bit more freedom to follow her nose and occasionally I threw down some treats so Nala asking Nala to sniff 🐾🐶🩷
Nala again was like a different dog today, she seems to absolutely love being on the park. Nala is so much more relaxed and definitely happier. We saw and walked past a lot of other dogs today and Nala didn’t react to any of them, even 2 fairly big staffies being walked together, which would normally have Nala reacting in some way but absolutely no reaction what so ever, not to dogs or people! I praised Nala massively throughout our walk making a fuss of her and giving her a treat 👏🏼🐾🐶🩷
Nala enjoyed running in the long grass & yes she had me running with her too 🤦🏻‍♀️😆 as long as she has fun and throughout our walk I offered Nala a drink which she accepted each time 🥰🐶💦
Another brilliant hourly walk for little Miss Nala and once home Nala sat nicely waiting for a treat before I left her to hopefully snuggle up with her Nana before going home later today 🐾🐶🩷☀️

What an amazing turn around for this beaut of a dog! 👏🏼🐶 when are humans going to learn what suits and fits one dog isn’t going suit & fit all dogs. Every tool should be used if necessary to help and protect these dogs allowing them to live their best life free from leads?
Highly highly recommend Steve Lancashire Dog Training UK my Nelly wouldn’t be living her best life without him!
