Happy Birthday to one of my first clients - little Percy! He may be small but he's a Leo with a very big personality 🐾🦁💜

Too hot to go walkies? Quick way to work it out - the 7 second pavement test. If it's too hot to keep the back of your hand on the tarmac, it will burn your dog's paws. 🥵🐾🕖7️⃣
When I came back from @dog_fest with this T-shirt from @equafleece to wet and keep Arlo cool on hot walkies, my hubby joked that I'd been fleeced! Well, today I had the last laugh as his wet T-shirt kept him lovely and cool (and protected from grass seeds). Meanwhile, I came back dripping!!
I'm missing my morning walkies with these beautiful girls. Ruby certainly turns heads but Belle is the boss! Both were a joy to look after while mum and dad went on holiday 💜🐾 If you're going away, keep family/friends happy about housesitting by getting me to do the daily dog walk.
'Take your dog to work' takes on a different meaning when you work as a dog walker. Puppy Skye always wants to play with other dogs when we go but they don't usually want it. Arlo also likes playing more than other dogs, so we agreed to let them have a play date. OMD! They went crazy for 5 mins (too fast to film) then Skye had far more speed and energy than Arlo bargained for (as you can see in this clip). Now he understands what Luca feels like when he's had enough but Arlo wants to keep playing!! #puppies
To celebrate #purebreddog day (May 1), here's a shout-out to the owners of these beautiful boys and girls who trust me with their posh pooches. From regular walkies to ad hoc outings, it's a real privilege (and responsibility) to walk these dinky Dachshunds, characterful Cockers, strong but sweet-natured Labs, a fun-loving Fox Terrier and a big, but still growing, Bernese Mountain Dog. 💜🐾💜
Today is National Hug Your Dog day. Well actually, every day is a hug your dog day around here! And the prize for the most huggable dog definitely goes to Walter (Springer spaniel) 🏆🥇- he simply adores snuggling up 💜

Today at @catsdogtraining , Arlo was introduced to agility. He did it so easily with Cat, but it was harder than it looked! Great fun though 🐶👏🤣❤️
That's it - a March full of dog walkies in the sunshine, wind and rain (sometimes all on one walk) has flown by! Thanks to all my customers and their canines for helping me grow my business. 💜Time now to take a little break over Easter with my own bundle of fluff [NB: I uploaded a photo of Arlo to Bing AI and asked it to paint a cockapoo with bunny ears ... these images are the result!!] Happy Easter🐰🐶 🐾
The easiest way to train a new dog seems to be spending time with an older dog. Whatever you want the young dog to do, you ask the older one to do and they miraculously do the same!!!
Today was our first training class 🐶😁Arlo was brilliant - a very quick learner. 👏👏 It was me and Mark that struggled coordinating instructions, clickers and treats 🤣
Thanks @catsdogtraining
