I've been putting off posting this for weeks... If I don't post it it's not real ๐Ÿ˜ญ

Wee Sally has retired from her walks... Since she'd become unwell, I had been doing my best to squeeze in a short walk for her because I just didn't want to stop seeing her, but I had to admit defeat as I was just really struggling to fit it in.

Sally has been with us since we first moved our walks to Westhill from the city in April 2019!

I know she'll love spending her days snoozing away in sun puddles and stealing food from her hooman ๐Ÿ˜…

She loved sniffing every smell for as long as possible, getting mucky in swamps and zooming when her dog chums played in water!

We miss you Sally, aka Swampy Sally, aka Piglet!

Keep that bum wagging ๐Ÿ’œ

(Picture of her first day and her last day!)

Ps. Thank you so much to Sally's human Esther for the beautiful flowers and kind words!!

Will never understand why people do this... Please don't leave your dog outside alone anywhere!
It's not safe and most dogs find it worrying and stressful anyway.

Happy dogs on walks!

Did you know that jumping up can sometimes happen because your dog is nervous?

Despite some outdated advice still circulating, it's never a bad thing to reassure your dog if they're nervous or scared!

"So if the only way someone can fit a dog into their life is to leave it alone & crated for 8-10 hours every day they really need to do some soul searching and consider the dog's experience, not just their own wants."

๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿ‘Œ

Yesterday I read a post on a colleague's page which should have been entirely noncontroversial. The post stated that dogs shouldn't be regularly crated for 8 hours or more at a time. Incredibly some people pushed back hard on that point on the basis it excluded people who worked full time/long hours from having a dog.

And there's the rub. ๐™‰๐™ค๐™ฉ ๐™š๐™ซ๐™š๐™ง๐™ฎ๐™ค๐™ฃ๐™š ๐™˜๐™–๐™ฃ ๐™๐™–๐™ซ๐™š ๐™– ๐™™๐™ค๐™œ. Much as they might want one. Not everyone's lifestyle is compatible with dog ownership. Which can be a bitter pill to swallow if you desperately want a dog in your life but that doesn't make it any less true.

Dogs need social contact*. They need space to move*. To deprive them of these things has a detrimental effect on their well being, no matter how loved they may be. So if the only way someone can fit a dog into their life is to leave it alone & crated for 8-10 hours every day they really need to do some soul searching and consider the dog's experience, not just their own wants.

If you do work out of the home for long hours and still want a dog in your life then you have to be prepared to pay for support to help you care for your dog - a dog walker, pet sitter, day care etc. And high quality, ethical pet care costs.

Does that mean that those who work long hours out of the home and can't afford high quality pet care can't have a dog? Yes, very possibly.

Owning a dog isn't a right. It's a responsibility which means that you have to consider the dog's welfare ahead of your own wants. There will be many such decisions along the way and the first one is whether your lifestyle can meet a dog's most basic needs. And if it can't, the answer should be 'no'.

This walk would suit an adult dog who enjoys being around other dogs (whilst not being too over excited by them), woodland walks and lots of sniffing....and of course a tasty treat or two!
