Gave Lady M her ACTIVITY feeder toy and she couldn’t even be bothered to stand up to play with it! 😆😂❤️
Gave Lady M her ACTIVITY feeder toy and she couldn’t even be bothered to stand up to play with it! See photos in comments for her incredulous expression when she realised I wasn’t going to get the kibble out for her! 😆😂❤️
When we go on walks, Lady M is always too excited and impatient to take a step back so I can pick up the line, so she does her happy dance! 😆❤️🐾
A moment of madness! 🤣🤣🤣
You know those times when you get so caught up in the excitement of the moment that you make decisions you then later regret…?!🤔🤣🤣🤣

Lady M spends most of her life happily asleep on the sofa. She does need to get SOME exercise, so I insist she joins me for a walk every day. Now I understand that it was pouring with rain this morning, but this was Lady M’s response… NOPE! 😆❤️☔️
Tam and Lady M are really good in the cottage and never chew anything they are not meant to. However, to satisfy their destructive desires, I often hide kibble inside several layers of cardboard and they take great joy in shredding the cardboard to reveal the goodies hidden inside. Despite appearances, they are both very careful and never eat any of the cardboard. By the time they have finished you can guarantee they have found every last piece of kibble! 😆💕❤️
I see very little of Tam on walks these days…! 😆❤️🐾
Aaaaaaand, they’re off!!! 😆🐾❤️
It is such a relief to see Tam feeling so much better now. He even smashed his previous personal best to achieve 7 consecutive body slam rolls across the field 🙄😆❤️
Lady M’s general attitude is ‘If at first I don’t succeed, get Lisa to do it for me’. That is unless it involves rearranging the soft furnishings, then she shows all the tenacity of a Jack Russell Terrier! I particularly like the glare that says ‘well, aren’t you going to help me?!’ a few seconds in. This was just the tail end of it when the poor girl was starting to tire! 😆💖❤️
Problem solving - golden retriever style!!!
In his frustration, Tam accidentally whacked his snack ball into the box. This was the tail end of his attempt to get it out…. Box 1 : Retriever 0 😆😆🤣
Tam had his second hydrotherapy session today. I wasn’t sure how he would react as he found the last session quite overwhelming, but he exceeded expectations. It was heart wrenching watching him summon up the courage to jump off the ramp into the water but once he was in, he swam really well. He did need a bit of a cuddle for reassurance after each lap, then after a few minutes he was ready to go again! So proud of him ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
‘The problem with sighthounds is that they chase everything that moves.’
Only if they can be bothered!!! Meh! 🙄😆❤️
When walking in the countryside, one must always be alert to potential trip hazards. Have to admit, he nearly had me on the ground with this one!!! 😆❤️🐾
I dared to stop stroking Lady M for just a second without permission and this was her response!!! 😆❤️🐾
I gave Lady M a piece of puffed wheat as a treat. From her reaction you’d think I was trying to poison her! 🙄😆❤️
I do all I can to keep Tam and Lady M happy and healthy, then Tam does THIS and gives himself an aural haematoma! I wonder if they sell bubble wrap in golden retriever sized rolls?!!! 🤔🙄🤣💕🐾
The graceful hound. Lady M certainly has her own unique way of doing things! 😆🤣🤣
The difference between a lurcher and a retriever #7: The ‘retrieve’. Vastly differing techniques and you can’t knock their enthusiasm, but the finish still needs work 🙄🤣🤣🤣
