Wallowing Willow ๐ฟ
The only thing Willow likes more than food is to wallow in a fresh paddling pool. Willow the hippodog ๐ฆ ๐ ๐ฅฐ๐ฅฐ๐ฅฐ

Pool party pups ๐ถ โ๏ธ
Pool party pups having fun while staying cool and hydrated.
๐ง๐ถ๐ฟโ๏ธ๐
Today we will be alternating between the shade and the pools. ๐ฟ ๐ถ ๐ง
Pups are happy to not have walks in the heat, but a bit of time out of the house is good for them mentally and physically if you can keep them cool.
Ideal places are shady spots and woods, especially if they have fresh water sources. I have personally found woods can often be a good 10 degrees cooler.
Alternatively early mornings and late evenings are good times when itโs cooler.

Happy birthday ๐ฅณ to the Perfectly Pampered permanent crew ๐โ๐ฆบ๐โ๐ฆบ-Rafi is 4, and Rio is 5 today!! ๐ฅณ๐ฅณ๐ฅณ
They are the best pups, colleagues and friends I could ever ask for. ๐ฅฐ๐๐ฅฐ
I hope they canโt complain about their day! Still to come is goose and turkey for dinner, followed by raw duck necks for pudding.
Congratulations both on surviving another year of my shenanigans. ๐๐๐

Fun in the shade Friday
Today we are doing our best to keep cool by sticking to the shade, and plenty of dips in the pools. โ๏ธ๐๐ง
When the weather is hot, there is no need to exercise your dogs, however, I do believe itโs still good for them to get out and about.
These pups are loving the long cool grass to lie down in and roll around in.
I try to keep as still as possible, which encourages them to keep it calmer. ๐ข
Itโs great for dog mental health to get out of the house, have company, sniff and mooch.
Good ideas to entertain dogs, whilst also keeping them cool and calm are to throw some treats scattered on the ground so that they have to sniff and find them, or to prepare frozen goodies where they have to work to get the good stuff out. I will post some links of these in the comments section. Just remember to check that ingredients you use are safe for dogs. E.g. if using peanut butter, make sure it is Xylitol free.
Other things I do with my lot is: empty ice cubes into a paddling pool, or throw toys in there. Dogs enjoy fishing them out, and it also helps to keep them cool, hydrated and entertained. ๐คฉ.
Happy Friday everyone!
Have a lovely weekend, enjoy the weather and stay safe and cool. ๐ โ๏ธ๐พ๐ง๐ฅฐ
Pool fun at the field
So, we had an unexpectedly lovely afternoon weather wise, so I have to thank the meteorologists who study for years, but got it wrong today. ๐ฌ๐คฆ๐ผโโ๏ธ๐
The pups had a great afternoon at the field and in the doggy pool.

Happy Friday โ๏ธ ๐ฒ
We started off our Friday with a fun walk in the woods this morning. ๐ชต ๐ฒ
The bluebells ๐ชป are out, the birds ๐ฆ are singing ๐ถ.
Wood walks are perfect for pups ๐ถ . They are mentally stimulating with all of the smells, sights, sounds, different terrains and rustling trees and hedges. ๐ฟ๏ธ ๐ฆโโฌ๐ชฑ๐๐๐
Woods are great to walk in in all weathers as they give you shelter in the rain, as well as being cooler in the summer.
Woods also often have fresh water sources for the pups to paddle in and drink from.
Wooded walks often make for happy, running nap times for our pups ๐ฅฐ ๐ค
Happy Friday all, we hope you have a lovely and relaxing weekend.

Spring has sprung! ๐ค๐ผ๐ค๐ผ๐ค๐ผ
Warning!!โผ๏ธ โ๏ธ โ ๏ธ
Positive post has landed! ๐ฌ
I bet you are all as sick of me moaning about the weather as I am about the actual weather. ๐๐
I was stood in the field in the rain yesterday with the water rolling down my face wondering if I had made the right career choice. ๐ง๏ธ ๐ ๐ฌ๏ธ
Roll onto today and Iโve had a great day.
Iโm even in such a good mood that I would humour someone if they told me that I have the worldโs ๐ easiest job! ๐คช๐๐
Itโs been so lovely to just sit in the field and allow the pups to roll, play, sunbathe and mooch.
Long may it continue!
Happy Thursday one and all! โ๏ธ
