Hey everyone.
Today is a special day!!! It’s my Lola’s 6th Birthday! She’s had a rough few years so we celebrate like she’s a queen. Today we are having a mini Pawty with her besties and fav humans at Odin Valley.
Friday is my day off thankfully as I’m still not feeling great! However I’ve caught up on most messages, if I haven’t responded please prompt me thank you 🥳🐾
Oh my Marley 🥰🐾
We’ve been working 1:1 on lead training and attention seeking.
He would escape his collars and harnesses, continually jump at the owners and bite the lead, pulling like racehorse. He’s just smashed his last session!
Owners words were ‘wow that’s the best he’s ever been and it was so enjoyable for us!’
Don’t get wrong you can’t get it over night but they have put the time and patience in! Look at him now. We managed a whole 1 hours walk with barely any pulling, scent work, agility and by the time we got back to the car he was conked out!!
Well done Marley and family 🏆🐾
When I dropped Mr Tinker 😂 off he was desperate to give me a Christmas gift. So here we go! Mouth delivered and everything!!! I’m in love with it! Thank you Lauren and Mr Tucker. I had a great day with him outdoors and in your house 😂🐾
Everyone knows I’m rubbish at technology, photos and apps etc etc but today we started a new challenge!
🐾 PICK THE WALK 🐾
Inspired by Ollie and Tato where the dogs get to pick where they’re going and what they’re doing! Today Missy picked Fulwell quarry. It was a very sniffy sniff walk and a bit of ball play and rolling in the grass but that’s what she picked. Missy Moo and Maxiwaxi had a great time!
Next week I’ll improve my cameraman and editing skills and add more destinations!
Cobie Amy McFaulds you’re up next! ❤️🐾
I had to share this because one I love following these guys and also it’s so true! So many clients ask me ‘should I get a second dog Lauren?’
I live this life. I love it. Hard work? Yes! Rewarding work? YESSSSS! Endless love and giggles? YESSSSS!!!!!!!!!! ❤️🐾
Good morning from us two!
How therapeutic are cat’s purrs! What a great start to the day! Thanks for my morning therapy Theo! ❤️🐾
🐾 Premission has been granted to post 🐾
Look at Miss Cobie go without her life jacket! These regular sessions at Woofs n Scruffs - Washington have really paid off!
Goooooo Cobie ❤️🐾
Today Lola and I went swimming with our friends Cobie and Amy McFaulds!
Did you know you can actually swim with your dog in a safe controlled space! Lola is an avid swimmer but Cobie isn’t quite as confident yet so we do joint swimming sessions and Lola is there help to build up Cobies confidence which is actually coming on leaps and bounds! She even ditched the life jacket today!
Safety around water a big thing for me due to past experiences but also it’s so good for them too if they enjoy water. Never pressure your dog to swim! Only if they love it like us ❤️🐾
Mr Romeo ❤️ was full of beans this morning! I love it when he goes into hyper mode 🐾🥰
Miss Lola has become addicted to catnip 😂❤️🐾
Marley was a super puller - the type where they use their whole body and strength!
We are in the early stages of loose lead walking so here is a small snippet from our first loose lead walk session. Just look at that happy wagging tail! He’s loving it! ❤️🐾
Jenson the Newfie Cross
Jenson had issues with pulling on the lead and becoming excited around people and other dogs. His mum and dad really struggled to walk him together and alone. It’s been a long journey but we’ve hit a huge milestone for both Jenson and his parents.
We will have a little bit to go when it comes to getting over excited with dogs but I know we will get there ❤️🐾
Little miss Cobie having a good old roll ❤️🐾
I love canine and feline enrichment! I seen this slow feeder puzzle on an American group and I searched for it and it was sold out everywhere so I preordered it and it arrived last week. I like to mix things up for the Labrador as she’s super clever and a very fast eater.
I never feed out of bowls so this one seemed perfect as you can pop the three parts out for a good clean! She absolutely loved it so thought I’d share it with you all! It’s the perfect addition to our kit for when we do a full house treasure hunt days ❤️🐾
Despite turning up in slippers the fish didn’t bat a fin at me as long they were fed and the cats were too intrigued as to what I brought for them tonight! They had a blast in the scent maze I made and the cat nip boxes and paper ❤️🐾
This is what we stumbled across today.
Something caught my eye and I was shocked! I haven’t a clue what it is but I’m trying to find out.
Luckily the 3 dogs all know leave it cue very well so we just ran away because I’m a wimp 🙈🐾
My old man Max who is nearly 10 got the zoomies at the park today!
He loves a good old rough battle with my lab Lola. Missy always wants to be referee and sometimes she joins in and they have a blast. Don’t worry this type of play is normal for my two and Missy.
Because Max has Doggy Dementia he loves routine and going out with the girls. They bring him happiness.
Cobie though didn’t care at all 😂😂
