Rural very small business

Hand w**ding the patio I came across this little flower
being a flower that’s dog friendly and not a w**d
I thought I’ll give it a chance to thrive
I also wanted to see how long it would go unnoticed, stamped on or pulled up by all those doggy paws that come through our door
So far 👍
I will name & shame the dog that do 😂🐶🐶🐶😉
What amazing work Drone to Home do ❤️
Ewes scanned during week
71 scanned
6 empty
34 single
31 twins
And 5 who played hard to get with Rams
So lambing later then the rest 😂
End of October/ November and maybe even December
Lambing for us 🐑
Well done to the Rams
Who are now enjoying a well deserved rest 🐏🐏🐏
We’ve got some new mums staying with us at moment
When Harry saw our guests he decided to go into show off mode
We wouldn’t expect anything else from Harry 😂
He do like a good audience 🐶
We had a surprise guest for daycare this week
Due to hot weather our Max has had a few days off from being a sheepdog and joined us all
Sitting in the shade just watching the world go by ☀️🐶
Now we seen to be zooming through the months
We are all now starting to enjoying what feels like summer
No more muddy paws & wet coats
or standing in the rain trying to entice all my doggy friends to join me
Am Sure they take great pleasure in watching me get soaked 🐶
We also had some births 🐑
Over the last few months
I have seen a lot of unlicensed home boarders pop up
On Requests from people looking for boarders
It’s just gone crazy!
All boarders who look after dogs in boarders own home ( house sitters do not need to be licensed but must be insured)
Should be licensed with local authority
By being licensed they are checked and inspected on regular basis given guidelines to follow and also canine first aid trained and most importantly insured
Anyone who not licensed will most probably not be covered by insurance
Their insurance will be invalid without a license
Please always asked to see license or asked for license number
My license number
M096577
We all have to have our licenses on display or show on request
We are also required to do meet & greets
Before boarding
Also do trail days
All licensed boarders can be found on local authority website
If they not on these sites chances are they not licensed
It takes months for us to gain our licenses before we can start looking after dogs
So it’s not a case of just popping ad up on here or any other form of advertising
So please be careful when your looking for that someone special to look after your four legged family member
If in doubt I can always recommend some lovely licensed Boarders that I know and would trust with my own dog 🐶
All it took was a little bit of sunshine
And our ewes started lambing 🥰
Only four more to lamb
So hopefully not to many late nights for Josh & Max
Sometimes even working dogs get the day off
Lovely having Max here for day
🥰
How is everyone else enjoying their Sunday morning coffee 😂
The sunshine has returned
So this can only mean one thing
My summer boarders have returned 🤗
So lovely to see them all
what with my daycares it’s like old friends catching up once more 🐶🐶
So while we all wait for the weather to make up its mind
Another month has just flown by!
A job for the two Franks 😂
Lovely to see all breeds are considered
No legs to short!
We found a sausage in the training room!
Standard Wirehaired , Iggy, has been doing some research and development work on metal pots. He is an extremely enthusiastic student and is working on going down the line one at a time rather than hopping back and forth over it in his mission to investigate all the samples and indicate when he finds his training odour.

First week back from holiday and so lovely to see my little friends
Even if Harry did find the fox poo within hour of being here 🐶Well done Harry!
Good job your so cute 🥰 and can get away if it
At least we all enjoyed the sunshine while Harry dried off ☀️
Hopefully we will have more sunshine & less fox poo dramas over the next couple of months 😂
After a fantastic week away in Northumberland we are all refreshed and ready to spruce up our home ready for doggy daycare to begin again next week 🐶
As the saying goes March came in like a lion
And goes out like a lamb
Which is very true in our little household! 😂
So another month has gone and it was so lovely catching up with all of my doggy daycares
And a couple of my boarders
Yesterday evening was my first dog free evening since last October and it just didn’t feel right!
So am glad that one of my favourite little characters is already packing his suitcase to start his stay with us 🐶❤️
One amazing young lady
Well done mum 🥰
It’s just not Easter unless you have a few cute lambs roaming around the place 🥰
Woke up to this lovely surprise 🥰
Even after all these years of lambing and the fact these ewes where due to lamb
It still was a surprise!
Someone once told me that lambing was like waking up Christmas morning to find presents at the end of your bed
And to be honest I couldn’t explain that feeling any better myself! 🥰
Even now am still amazed that this worked 😂
Next week we going to try
Beyoncé’s TEXAS HOLD EM 🕺🕺🕺
It would seem we do lamb daycare as well as doggy daycare 😂
At least my assistant Casper the goat is keeping a watchful eye over our little guest ❤️
12 ladies waiting
Hopefully now we have the nice weather their lambs will start arriving 🤗
It must be true
If kept busy the time will fly!
February was a fantastic month with my two house guests
Still missing their cuddles ❤️
But all my little friends are making sure my arms are not empty for long 🐶
I think we time the dog field at the right time 😲
What a fantastic day for the Charity we support ❤️ well deserved 🐶
We managed some sunshine this week ☀️
Having the back door stay open so everyone could come & go as they pleased
Put us all in a playful happy mood 🐶
Well it is Valentine’s Day 🐶🥰🐶
I have so many photos to pick from this week
Everyone of them has made me chuckle or just melted my heart ❤️

Our tunnels usually last about six months We are taking bets on this Day one of use 🐶
Max working some moo cows
Max busy showing his new apprentice the ropes
I really don’t think Harry appreciated me Singing Happy Birthday to him ☺️😂
We thought you would like to see what Max do in his spare time When not working for us 🐑
My morning routine for last two weeks Excuse the terrible singing 😊 Think it was Ruby that started it 🐶 I apologise but you really do need the sound
If every morning was like this when checking ewes & lambs The world would be perfect place 😁
Give up Ruby Harry’s busy plane watching 😂 You need sound on this one
Still only three little ones But expecting the ewe who’s moving in video to lamb in next few hours But then again I have been wrong 😊
Who needs air con when you have Harry’s tail If you can put up with his tail tickling your nose Harry was giving me a lovely breeze 🥰
We had a off the cuff grooming day this week 😂 Girl power 💪to Poppy for coming forward when I asked who’s next 😂
Run Blf Run 🐶
Would seem game of the week was Chase me With Blf the Pug doing most of the chasing It’s like those little legs where born to run 🥰
How can a rain filled hole be so much fun
Breakfast time in lambing shed There’s always one noisy eater 😂
Let the fun begin 🥰
