Dog walking in the Wigan area
(8)
I never really post on the page anymore, but this special boy deserved a mention. Lovely little Len, one of my first clients 3 years ago, sadly went to rainbow bridge today age 16. I'll always remember my home visits with him when he'd find the sun spot in the summer and refuse to move for the whole 30 mins I was there 💙 Thinking of Heather Jae Cunliffe and the family today. Run free at the bridge Len 🌈
Today we were all glad that the sun had disappeared. Cooper was so happy to see his friends again too and be at work with his mama. All the boys had lots of fun 💙💙
Just house visits today as it was far too hot for walks. I got lots of cuddles and the doggies got to play/relax in the shade 💙
12 months ago I was asked to walk little Fozzie the pug during the school holidays. He was cheeky, stubborn and refused to walk for me. We'd sometimes only get half a mile done in 30 minutes with copious amounts of treats. 🫣His owner Rachel said he will only walk for her, so I had a real challenge on my hands.
Fast forward 12 months and this cheeky chappy jumps out of the door to come and walk with me and Cooper, he happily walks alongside Coops and hardly needs any treats when out. I only see him every so often during the school holidays, but it shows patience and consistency is key. He makes me smile with his cheeky ways and is a pleasure to walk 🖤💙
What a lovely spring day we had today ❤️ I had my little right-hand man back out with me and his friends and it was just lovely. We all had lots of fun in the mud and even little Winnie-Dot came out for a walk too 🐾❤️ Happy Friday everyone ###
A quiet few weeks at Poppy's Place due to illness, but I did get to see the lovely Fozzie who is best friends with Coops and loves walking with him and I've had my usual visits with Ralph, Artie and Winnie -Dot 🐾💙
Fun and games at Poppy's Place over the last few weeks 💙 I even got a picture of all 4 boys (Archie, Bucky, Cooper and Fudge) looking at the camera! 🐾🐾
Not many pictures taken today as it was as wet as wet can be! I did get a few though and when the boys were out they loved it. Archie hated the rain, Bucket was toasty warm in his fleece, Ralph was sporting a lovely coat and Artie wouldn't let his ball out his sight! Winnie Dot loves her salmon treats and hunting for them around the house. Cooper loves working Fridays with mummy, but he gets so sleepy at the end of the day 💙 happy weekend everyone x
We are back!!!! 6 dogs walked (7 if you include my Coops) and 1 home visit for our first Friday of 2023. Lots of muddy fun and a good time had by all dogs 💙🐾
Lots of fun in the mud and on the fields the past 2 weeks, aswell as some home visits ❤️🐾
We have had a fun-filled week this week at Poppy's Place. Lots of walks and home visits. Cuddles and kisses all round 💙❤️
A lovely Friday with these 7 beauties. A meet and greet with Artie, a play on the private field with the boys, a walk in the park for Ralph and then a home visit for little Winnie Dot ❤️ a lovely day for us all x
A big Poppy's Place welcome to Artie 💙 he will be joining us on a Friday 💙 I had a meet and greet this morning and I quickly learnt that Artie loves his ball and muddy puddles 🤣 lots of fun to be had with this boy
The past few weeks at Poppy's Place 💙
Thank you ma'am ❤️
How lucky am I to get to spend time with all these beautiful dogs ❤️🐕 Happy International dogs day to all of my Poppy's Place family. Each and every one of these dogs make me laugh and smile for their own reasons. 🐕❤️💙
Last week I had the pleasure of walking Fozzie the pug every day 💙 it was warm so we were out early for 30 minutes before it got too hot. Fozzie has heaps of personality and makes me smile every time I see him-as you can see from the pictures he pulls tongues at me and shows me his peggies. He may be stubborn when it comes to walking but he makes the 30 minutes fly with his cheeky ways 💙
This week has been all about the early morning walks in this heat 💙
Wishing Poppy's Place longest standing member Archie a massive Happy 7th Birthday . Archie you are one of a kind 💙 You do what Archie wants in your own time but you are so good with all the gang at Poppy's Place, showing them the ropes and how to navigate life. We love you Archie, love from all your friends at Poppy's Place 💙🐾🎉
Little Bucky, just 1 year old, makes me smile every time he jumps in the water. No fear whatsoever and is such a good swimmer ! Just look at his swishy tail go! 💙❤️
Last week was a fab week at Poppy's Place ❤️😀 walks and home visits galore. Look after your dogs this week everyone, it's going to be a hot one! No dog ever died from missing a walk. Don't risk it in the heat-keep them indoors where it is cool.
What a busy week at Poppy's Place ❤️💙 We are all pleased that the temperature has cooled down again, it means we can have lots of fun and play out again
Fun in the water at 9am this morning 💦💙
This morning was all about keeping cool. The 3 amigos went through the woods and had a good swim, Bucky was fab, a real superstar in the water. Then I did a home visit for Ralph, as it was too hot for a walk, but he joined me for my dinner in Varani. The most handsome dinner date if you ask me 💙 I am done for the day now and the dogs can snooze happily at home in the cool
As the weather is heating up, please, please read.
Dear Mum and Dad,
Let me stay home. It's not nice for me to walk and run next to you. But because I am a loyal dog, I often go beyond my limits. So I walk and run beside you, standing still if I have to.
And feel my paws burn. I'm looking at you for a moment, but you do not understand. Because in a little over 5 minutes we're at the cool puddle, right? But those little 5 minutes can be fatal to me. Because I sweat through my paws, and in this heat I just cannot get rid of the sweat. My whole body is boiling, but I keep going and then I end up on the tarmac. In the heat and in the sun. With my tongue out of my mouth and my eyes flashing in the sun. My paws are burning, my tongue is dry and my head is pounding in the heat that my body cannot get rid of…
Instead, let me stay at home where i can enjoy the sun, with a large bowl of water, somewhere in the shade. And best of all I like a cool area with grass.
Love Your dog
