Another fun filled day yesterday 🥰

Started off with taking Willing & Willful on their usual Thursday morning stroll where we enjoyed lots of sniffs. Then took their cheeky little little brother Poacher for a little walk to get him more accustomed to walking nicely on lead. He picked it up super quick and by the end of the walk he was walking wonderfully!

Two little visits to the adorable Bob who is absolutely smashing his toilet training already! And of course lots of fuss and cuddles.

Then I got to take the fantastic 4 upto Ettington fields where Buddy and Finn followed me around whilst Fifi played ball and Leanna went and hunted all the scents she could! 😍

Ended my day with a nice stroll with Twizzle and her new companion - Daughter Wanda. Wanda is a little shy and timid but after only a couple of walks, is starting to be a little more trusting in me. 💜

My paw-some pals have kept me super busy today 🥰

This morning Ralph, Pablo, Miska & Bella welcomed Blue to the group for the day. I was super excited to see Blue again and couldn’t get over how much he’s grown already. Needless to say he slotted right into the pack and they all had an absolute whale of a time! 💫

Once everyone was safely home Otis and I went for our usual stroll where he enjoyed another roll in the grass.

Then I got to go on another wonderful adventure in the lovely weather with the gorgeous Rosie, who again loved a roll in the grass and as you can see it itched all the good places!

I finished the day with a drop in to Bonez & Nova, it was so great to see them both again and they definitely hadn’t forgotten the ‘find the treats’ game we played before! 😍

A beautiful day for a run around with these two.💜

A new face will be joining them next week! 😍

⚠️WARNING - CUTENESS OVERLOAD⚠️

💫A huge welcome to little Bob!💫

Doesn’t he just melt your heart?

Today I started puppy visits to this gorgeous 10 week old whilst Mum & Dad are busy at work.

I’m so excited to spend more time with him, watch him grow and be part of his puppy journey. 🥰

Back to training with Ben 💫

After a few weeks off walks to enjoy the summer holidays with his family, Ben is back to regular walks and working on his lead manners again.

Ben is so excited by all the new smells on walks that he has to rush to them as soon as he can!

So we’re re-learning how to walk calmly over to all the fun sniffs so that we can both enjoy the walks together. 🥰

Got a big day out planned?

⭐️ HUGE WELCOME TO BELLA ⭐️

Today the beautiful Bella joined the group up at Lobbington Fields and she had a ball!

As you can tell she was a huge hit with the boys and they all enjoyed playing together. 🐶

Lots of happy, waggy tails despite the miserable weather! 🌧️

Another wonderful adventure with Rosie today.

We stumbled upon a lovely new route surrounded by nothing but the sounds of the countryside 🥰

I absolutely adore Rosie’s love of adventure we managed to cover 3miles in our hour together and I’m not sure which one of us was more in need of a nap afterwards 😂

🌟 A HUGE WELCOME TO LEXI & TWIZZLE 🌟

Lexi & Twizzle joined the Bark & Beyond team this week and I have thoroughly enjoyed getting to know them both.

They are an absolute dream on and off lead and a joy to spend time with. 🫶🏻

Little Eddie experienced his first pack walk yesterday. He took it in his stride and loved every second! He started off with a nice tidy white coat… he was returned looking more brown from all the running round in the mud 😂

PLEASE SHARE

As you all know, I currently run a dog walking & pet care business and I am looking at branching out and offering bespoke, pet wedding chaperone services along side this.

To do this I would very much like to gain some experience in this field and build my portfolio.

Therefore I am looking for 3 local couples who are planning their wedding and love the idea of having their dog(s) be part of their special day.

What does a pet wedding chaperone offer?
- Pre- wedding walks
- Doggy chauffeur service to and from the venue(s)
- Meet and greet guests on arrival.
- Assisting the photographer to get your pets in those all important photos.
- A pawfect ring bearer.

If this is something that sounds appealing to you, and you’d like to take advantage of hugely discounted prices, please get in touch. 🙂

🌟 A HUGE WELCOME TO EDDIE 🌟

Today Eddie the Maltipoo joined me on his 2nd walk whilst Mum was at work. He was super excited & raring to go!

Eddie is a bundle of joy and I’m so looking forward to spending more time with him. He may be joining groups in the future to enjoy the company of more four-legged, furry friends! 🐶

Todays group had so much fun making use of the enrichment today, I just couldn’t resist snapping some pics 🥰

Today has marked a change for a couple of these pooches;

🐶PABLO has now settled in really well to group sessions and is taking it in his stride. He plays happily with the others and now has confidence to venture off around the field and do his own thing for a while as opposed to being glued to my leg 😂

🐶MISKA has also settled in super well in our group, she is a beautiful ball of energy and loves racing round the field getting the others chasing her, she is such a friendly and loving character. 😍

🐶POACHER started with me having minimal training and socialisation, it has been wonderful seeing him learn from the others. Before, he was a crazy, energetic boy who would zoom under my legs and bulldoze straight into the others in a bid to play, now he’s learnt that sometimes the other dogs have had enough and need a little space & is starting to understand the cues and not push his luck with them 😂

🐶RALPH has been a very chilled member of the group from the start, he loves running, sniffing his way around the field and playing with the others. Ralph has been a really helpful leader of the group and has done really well gently telling off the others and teaching them how to behave properly. 🥰

Absolutely loving spending time with Charlie & Lola whilst Mum and Dad are on holiday. 🥰

Lola loves retrieving things but destroys tennis balls in seconds. Yesterday she decided a small log would be a good replacement but we all know how dangerous chewing sticks can be!

So today I snuck my dogs favourite toy out for her and it was a big hit and much safer for her to play with ☺️

If the weather man is correct, it seems Summer is finally due to make an appearance this week. (Well for a few days at least!) 🥵

With that in mind, plans are in place to bring all walks forward (particularly on Tuesday & Wednesday) in an attempt to avoid the hottest parts of the day and keep my furry clients safe and comfortable. 🐶

Anyone this affects should have already been contacted, however if you’ve received no communication and are unsure if this will affect your slot, please do get in touch. 😁

28/07/2024

It’s been a week packed full of fun and waggy tails all round! Some new faces have joined us along the way 🥰

‼️ I NEED YOUR THOUGHTS ‼️

I am currently toying with the idea of having on online booking system. I would like to hear from everyone as to whether you feel this would be beneficial.

What would you, as a client be looking for in a booking system?

- How far in advance would you like to be able to book?

- Would you like a system you can register an account with to make booking easier with a fast checkout? Or would you prefer a ‘guest checkout’ option.

- Would you prefer to pay upon booking rather than wait for an invoice?

- Would you like a system that I can upload photos/ videos and comments to for a more personalised experience?

- OR do yiu prefer to stick with the messaging for bookings as I do now?

Any thoughts, ideas and feedback will be hugely appreciated. I’ve looked into many platforms so far but the decision will be based on what the majority feel would like from it.

This mornings gorgeous group members. 🥰

Miska & Pablo enjoyed their second group sessions and first time meeting one another.

Miska is a water hunter just like Ralph and she thoroughly enjoyed jumping in the water trough (3 times!) while Poacher watched her wondering what all the fuss was about! 😂

This pawesome foursome had an absolute whale of a time chasing eachother around and exploring the enrichment together 🐶
