North Cornwall Dog Walking

Sometimes, the best plans just… don’t work out, ey!
We took a trip to Brecon this weekend to run the “October Half Marathon” (I’m doing one every month) in a different place. We also went to attend the Brecon Food Festival, for the 3rd time, which was lovely as always. Saturday Mocha had a freak accident ripping one of his claws clean off. From then on we had to leave Laura & her dogs to do the adventuring and we could only really snuggle up in our shepherds hut. I didn’t feel like running the Half leaving him behind, so only managed a shorter run. Poor little fella, he’s on 3 legs for the time being and will hopefully be back to normal soon, joining our running in November.

This morning we hosted our first Introduction to Canicross / Canihiking for Dog Professionals ✨
Talking all things equipment, harness fitting, cue training… but also how good the sport can be for our clever dogs when we implement stimulating cues rather than just using it for exercise, how it can create a bond with the dogs we look after and give them confidence to overcome fears and ignore triggers when working into a harness; we discussed how the hands free walking equipment can be used in our job, making it more comfortable for the dog and more enjoyable for ourselves;
Well done and thank you Anna for assisting 😘

A few weeks ago I was interviewed by the lovely Jo Tinsley for
We chatted about, well, my life amongst dogs, being your own boss and that working with dogs isn’t always frolicking through meadows with happy dogs! … but that there is plenty of that happening, too.
The conclusion was - I created myself a life I no longer want to escape from, I work every day to keep up with my dog’s luxury lifestyle and I’m incredibly proud of the service I am providing for my clients.

While we solely Canicross to have fun and explore new trails together, we cannot forget Canicross is a sport. Mocha is a little power house with a lot of muscle, he‘s very active and gets walked, run or trained for several hours a day. Most dogs aren’t 100% symmetric in their gait but in Mocha it shows even more. Easily overlooked or ignored, as it’s not causing issues or pain, but I take his health as, if not more, serious as my own.

Could you resist if Mabel was trying to sell you homemade dog biscuits in aid of the Irish Setter Rescue which saved her?
No. I didn’t think so.

Sometimes you just got to sit in a field (or in the sea) surrounded by beautiful dogs ♥️
