We saw this and wanted to share too

Walk with me; don’t just walk me. Slow down and see the world as I do. I know you’ve got things to do, places to be. But out here, with the ground beneath our feet and the sky above us, there’s a whole world worth noticing.

The autumn chill is in the air today, crisp and full of new smells. It’s different from yesterday, and different from the day before. Every day is new. The leaves crunch under my paws, and I stop to breathe in the rich, earthy scent of them. To you, it might just be a pile of leaves, but to me, it’s a story—one I can’t help but dive into, nose first.

There’s a squirrel somewhere nearby, I can sense it, darting up a tree, its tiny heart beating fast. And the wind carries whispers of things far away: a family cooking dinner, the trace of a cat that passed by early this morning, and the faint perfume of flowers holding on to their last bit of summer. It’s all here, swirling around us if you just take the time to notice.

You tug on the leash, eager to move on, and I can tell you’re thinking about something far away from here. But when we walk, truly walk, you and I can be in this moment together. Feel the cool air brush against your skin, let it wake you up. Notice how the sun filters through the branches, casting shadows that dance on the pavement. Hear the crunch of the leaves beneath our steps, like a secret rhythm just for us.

To you, it might be just another walk, a daily routine to tick off the list. But for me, every step is an adventure. Each scent is a clue, each sound a piece of a puzzle. When you walk with me, really walk with me, you’ll see it too. The world is bigger than what we’re rushing toward. It’s right here, in the small moments, in the quiet spaces between your thoughts.

So, slow down. Breathe. Let the chill fill your lungs and the colours fill your eyes. Walk with me, don’t just walk me. See the world as I do, if only for a little while. It’s all waiting for you, just beneath the surface.

PLS BE AWARE!

Morning All just letting you know that there is a large hole on the B4009 Long Lane just before the roundabout where you can turn left to Hilliers Garden Centre, just before the Co-Op! So much so the road is shut so please do not try and come to club this way! A34 and past Newbury Showground maybe! Xx 🚧⛔️

"Unfortunately, Dozer & his family learned the hard way that corn cobs aren't safe for dogs - EVER. Despite how much you think your dog may chew a corn cob, it's NEVER okay to feed these to them. Their body isn't able to break down the corn cob & they get trapped in the intestines, resulting in a very sad, sick pooch that will likely require surgery. Corn cobs are one of the most common foreign bodies that we remove from dogs! Please spread the word by sharing this post." - The team at New Ulm Regional Veterinary Center
