I’ve been recommended muttsearmitts.co.uk for anyone who has concerns re grass seeds. They ended up forking out for both there cockers at the vets so maybe a wise investment. The below picture is from the company website.
Appreciate they look slightly comical but well worth it 🐶

So I spend a small fortune to get what reports to be one of the most accurate weather apps!
I see no rain is due and it’s cloudy so no need for a peaked hat, I’m also feeling rather smug that as heavy rain has fallen I wear my waterproof trousers!
Oh how wrong was that blasted app! Couldn’t even wear my glasses as couldn’t see 💦 💦💦 🤣🤣🤣
PS my face & mouth contortions are due to so much water 🚿

Always encouraging to see how well the public footpaths are kept this time of year 🙄

If dog walkers were beer, I think I’d be a Carlsberg 😝
Just another day at the office 😂

I’ve had the pleasure of walking this lad over the past few years but his family are moving out of the area so it was with sadness that I said goodbye to him last week. Never gets easy saying goodbye but I wish him and his family all the best for the future. 🥰

Gotta be grateful when the potato watering means water for the pooches to drink! Oh and give them a rinse if they’ve found & rolled in 🦊 💩 😂

More puppy admiration video 😂
Decided on a new walk through stunning woodland. Lots of new scents, his recall was spot on. He truly is the 5* pooch

This little guy is sooo adorable. Never been down to the river, nothing phases him.
PS not sure why I decided to try cinematic mode, not a total success 😂

The joy of seeing a lab launch themselves into water is one of my greatest pleasures (as you can tell by my silly soppy voice 😂)

Not only are the ticks on the march but we’re now coming into grass seed season!! Not quite there yet as we’ve had some rainy, cloudy days but once the temperatures rise and sun starts to show its face the grass seeds will be drying up!
Please keep curly tots groomed as short as possible as this helps with being able to see them and also the longer curls can keep hold of them, giving them opportunity to enter the skin.
However any dog is susceptible.
Please check your pooches especially paws, armpits etc.

Tick Alert
These horrid little critters are coming out of the woodwork (so to speak) well they actually crawl up tall vegetation and wait till some unsuspecting animal runs past, so they can jump on for a free lunch!
Please look at treating your pooches or checking them regularly. All this recent sun/rain/sun/rain has meant vegetation is growing fast.

Todays first walk in heavy rain, I’m all kitted out in my waterproofs & love walking in the rain ☔️

Glorious morning for a walk

Thank goodness for rain 💦
Still some large puddles out there for a pit stop 😊

Not looking forward to these two loons getting back into the car 😬. Oh how I’ve been missing my van. 🤣🤣
16/04/2024
After my dreadful start to the morning (van didn’t start so RAC and trip to leave van at garage 🥲)
I’ve walked into the wood to see this, it’s lifted my spirits 🥰
13/04/2024
The big guys show him how it’s done 😊. Won’t be long before he joins in. Apologies to Penny as she’s not a ‘lad’ 🤪
13/04/2024
Can’t tell you how proud I am of this wee lad. He’s fearless and loves water and such a great little swimmer.
PS please excuse the overly encouraging voice 😂
10/04/2024
. . . . Aftermath 🤣🤣🤣 and pesky pup 🥰

This is said steep muddy slope 😂

Funny story part 2! (It’s turning out to be one of those days 😝😝)
Sooo, springer dashes down a short steep muddy slope to get to water! Puppy thinks what a great idea and as he has no fear whatsoever he does the same!
That’s when I knew i was in trouble 😂 he slips in, does a wee swim then realises he can’t get back up the steep muddy slope! He looks at me as if to say ‘well come get me then’. So another benny hill moment ensues as I make my way on my bottom through over hanging dried thorn bushes (ouch) and find the water is too deep to as it’ll go over my boots 😬.
Soooo I have to wedge my hefty bottom against a storm pipe and grab said pup and pull him out! He thinks it’s all rather amusing! Emergency averted I realised getting out was going to be harder than getting in!
I was close to just giving up and finishing rest of the walk with sodden wellies but I wasn’t going to be defeated 🤪🤪. Hat and hair ripped out by thorn branches and with trousers smothered in mud I got out!
What a day 😜😜😜

Funny story
😝 so, I go to put my foot down and suddenly feel something that wasn’t hard ground (soft dog) I immediately lifted my foot but this unbalanced me so I kinda did a roll onto my back! I have to say it wasn’t a bad fall as I had a huge bag of dog poo in the back of my utility vest so it completely softened the blow! Then I was smothered by all the ickle dogs!
I laughed so hard they were all rather amused
22/03/2024
I love this boy but boy did he enjoy his roll this morning 🤢🤢🤢 😝
15/03/2024
Noooooo, it’s slurry time!!!
08/03/2024
So I’m trying to set up the perfect video 😂 pups going a bit crazy waiting.
Then Penny DIVES into the water, it’s walks like this when the sun is actually out and the dogs are gloriously happy that make my day.

Holly 💔 xx
04/03/2024
Earlier this year on a beautifully bright morning, I took this video of Holly walking behind me. She was my shadow. An elderly girl who just adored being out on her walks, even more recently when it was clear she wasn’t long for this world. She still wagged her tail with excitement when I picked her up. Today she lost her battle and is now pain free. I will never forget you Holly.
I had walked Holly for over 4 years, I thank her owner Janet for entrusting me with her. I’m truly heartbroken, like losing one of my own dogs. 😭 😭
