Last pack walk before some time away to heal. This week I woke up in the morning and started experiencing shooting pains down my neck, to my collar bone and along my shoulder. Luckily already having a doctor appointment booked for a check up I talked to him and he mentioned I have strained my trapezius muscle and to take some time away to rest. This has becoming pretty limiting in terms of movement of my head and is pretty uncomfortable but we are on the right path to recovery. Will keep you guys all updated asap on the next walks when I'm more healed x

Happy New Year from Spirit & Howl! πŸŒΏβ˜€οΈπŸŽ‰

A small but perfect wee pack to start out our year. A decompression day in the forest with a beautiful group of dogs after 5 decompressing days in a forest with a beautiful group of humans. I am one confident, well rested pack walker today and I couldn't be more excited for our journeys along the year to come ✨

I had a social media process of posting photos of these sweet souls. It looked cool on the grid but it was getting way too in the way of consistency so here is me changing all of that and trying harder to work on this profile πŸŒΏπŸ˜‰πŸΊ

A great group shot from pack walkies last Thursday. Hope everyone is having a great week so far!

🐺 MURPHY 🐺

How fitting is it that today I do Mr Murphys bio and welcome page when today is the day I'm also just starting to house sit for his family πŸ™ He has been a part of the Spirit & Howl family for just under a year and is a big part of our Wednesday afternoon adventure pack β˜€οΈ Even just watching him now makes me laugh, full Blue Heeler to the tee. We have just arrived back at his house after a 4km forest walk, fed, played with Miley for an extra hour or so and now he is sitting at my feet eyeing up the toy he keeps coming back to play fetch with, at 8pm, after all that 🀣 Aw we love you Mr Murphy. Such a smart boy and though hitting those teenage months now, watching him grow through the pack is amazingly and he is becoming such a wonderful, balanced wee doggo. Best friend to the smallest of our Tribe little Teddy. Blue Heeler Twin and brother bear the wonderful Charlie and all round great furry mate to the whole tribe. Love our adventures little Murphy and can't wait for more to come πŸ’šπŸŒΏ

🐺 CWTCH 🐺

The mighty and wonderful Mr Cwtch. Cwtch has been with us for nearly 4 months already and man, what a lovely little bean you are. Complete loving Labrador to the tee. Gumpy. Loves his food. Loves getting muddy. Loves playtime. Loves to please. Always knows how to escape his collar on a walk if he wants to. But also will always be distracted by a fly πŸ˜… His best friend in the pack would definitely be Mr Bentley. His patient guide, Mr Kobe. And he definitely has lovers eyes for the cute Miss Lula. In four months, he has grown so much with his socializing, his behavioral skills, recall skills. And more. But most importantly, we love you and your family Mr Cwtch, and are so blessed to have you a part of our journey and tribe β™₯️

Incoming posts to cram in the past two weeks/months of updates πŸ˜… Life has been all go with weddings, festivals, running the bizz and shelter work. Social media needed to take a back seat for a moment so I could hold onto bits of me time and keep some balance! But here's some memories for the book and a peek at what we have been up to 🌞🐺

Happy Wednesday Tribe! Hope everyone is having a great week and recovering from the spooky celebrations and nursing those sweet filled bellies! These doggos have been smashing it recently, I've been feeling like such a proud pack leader mumma πŸ₯° We've been working on a lot of different training sessions and drills, walking together as one and that pack mentality is getting stronger by the day! Our selective hearing mates are getting their ears more tuned up, our reactivities are being calmed and controlled more and more. I absolutely love this journey and watching the family grow. Still have to pinch myself everyday that this is what I call "working". Get out their team, it's a stunning day! Find those hidden gems, explore and enrich with your pooches, today is a good day for an epic adventure! 🌱🐺

🐺 CHARLIE 🐺

Today we say hello to Mr Charlie. He jumped on board just a few months ago and what a lovely cheeky little character you are Charlie boy. It has been so fun watching you become a part of our tribe. From beaches to forests, you love whatever walk we adventure out on. From stick throws, your crazy big hugs (working on that one πŸ˜…), taking other dogs for a walk on the lead, your beautiful recall and curious, listening ears, confident howl, the other doggos teaching you the calm rules and boundries of play, bonding sleepover nights when Mum and Dad are away. You are a smart, cool little cookie Mr Charlie, we love seeing you grow and you make such an awesome addition to our pack πŸŒΏπŸ’™

🐺 UISCE 🐺

Today we introduce this beautiful soul. Her name, pronounced 'Ish-ka'. She is the oldest spirit out of the Spirit & Howl tribe but still has so many springs in her step and is always ready for a journey! She has the wisest and calmest nature, is the best girl on all of her walks and that smile is always so big, you can see it through her eyes! She loves her treats, rolling through the grass on her back, a good stick chasing but honestly just stays right next to my side on our adventures just taking it all in while the young ones play. She is just the most laid back, lovely smooch and such a dream to walk. We love you Uisce! ❀️

Today is a good day for some big adventures with these beautiful spirits πŸ™ŒπŸΊπŸ€Ž                                            ...

🐺 KOBE 🐺

Back into introducing our pack members now we are back into it! This is the wonderful Kobe. He is one super doggo. He is a teacher to our newest puppy members Bentley and Charlie about play manners, is Brackens bestest friend and Kobe has taken a huge liking to Cruise too! Cruise and Kobe, both being from breeds of working dogs, are so fast together when they decide to race it out along the beach! Kobe is so lovely and gentle, he is an amazing spirit to have in our pack, is one of the best listeners, knows so many little tricks and we love him so dearly. Thank you for being a part of our tribe Kobe ❀️

Hello πŸ‘‹ We are alive!! This is a little look into the rollercoaster past 5 months and why everything went a little quiet..

πŸŒ€ The big one. Two of the originals of Spirit & Howl, Miley and Mr Cruise, had a little woopsy one day when I wasn't looking and made some puppies! (The week before Miley was due to be desexed, classic. πŸ˜…) For all of March and April, I watched as Miley went through her beautiful journey of pregnancy and then the beautiful pack was born in the 29th April. The next 12 weeks post labour was definately and eye opener and I learnt HUGE things in this period about dog behavior and upbringing. And now, one of the little pups lives with his Dad Mr Cruise! So we are blessed that we get to stay in contact and Mr Bentley (puppy) will be joining us on our adventures as soon as he is able!
πŸŒ€ Just prior to helping raise these pups, I actually also fell into a bit of an accident and on a walk, managed to dislocate and break my index finger on my main hand when it got caught in the leashes. Another HUGE lesson here.
πŸŒ€ Not shortly after Mileys pups arrived I also fell into the joy of finally experience COVID. So that week was full into lockdown mode. (Not much to learn, just about giving my body rest πŸ˜…)
πŸŒ€In between these fun experiences I also started one of the most fulfilling part time jobs at the Pet Refuge shelter where I get to go and help out those dogs in need that have come from domestic violence homes. To say the least. This job has taught me so much in my three months there already that I bring straight to the table for our pack walks. Massive learning curve. And I have so much more to learn with this wonderful team and workplace.
πŸŒ€I had the wonderful privilege of housesitting for a doggo client of mine who owns a Greyhound. My first experience working so closely with him and there was definately a massive lesson I learnt in terms of this breed in particular.
πŸŒ€ Lastly, in the past month, I have actually moved house! (Well caravan. But I am actually living in a house now too!) My new location is now Dairy Flat but don't fear! I still come north 4 days of the week for our walks!

So after all that, we are back to adventures. Let's go!

🐺 BRACKEN 🐺

Oh our wonderful golden Bracken. How we love you dude. The wonder dog. The Golden Retriever extraordinare. Bracken joined the pack just about over a month ago now and he has brought such an epic vibe to our wanders. From day dot he has been the dude with such a friendly and curious nature. Is always down for some fun runs and stick chasing (although sometimes he does like to just keep that stick to himself afterwards πŸ˜…) and going ahead to sniff out those weird and wonderful smells.

Welcome to the tribe Bracken, we can't wait to create more tail wagging memories with you ❀

Happy Tuesday 🌿

Hope everyone has had the best start to the week! The flow has been on a bit of a rollercoaster these past few weeks with a getaway to Hawkes Bay for a wedding and then my birthday last weekend building tipis and boogie with some vibey beats! But back into business this week, let's get it πŸ’ͺ Got some more new doggos to introduce to you all this week (hint: two are in this picture!) so watch this space for those cute doggo welcomings and remember to flick me a message if you want your best mate out for some adventures with us this week!

My days this week up North (Matakana/Warkworth/Surrounding Areas) are:

🐺 Wednesday
🐺 Thursday
🐺 Saturday

With these days down in the North Shore areas:

🐺 Today (Tuesday)
🐺 Friday after 1pm

Get out and smash those goals this week everyone!

Love the Spirit & Howl Tribe ❀

🐺 FREJYA 🐺

Today we introduce this little ball of light officially to our pack. Frejya's Dad Marcel is a good friend of mine that I worked with a while ago at another dog friendly cafe called The Stoned Cow Cafe. Marcel reached out to me when he came to adopt this adorable soul and has been such an influence and huge support to my dream. We are so blessed to have this cuteness join our tribe, and wow. For a 6 month old border collie pup, her socialization and training progression already has been insane! Marcel has been doing such an amazing job with her and she has fit in so well from day one. Love you little Frejya and we are so excited for more adventures to come 🌿😊

🌿 T U E S D A Y 🌿

Welcome back to the week! Hope everyone had an amazing long weekend full of fun adventures. We are kicking off our week with a bang.

Last week was filled with bad luck vibes, dead van batteries, smashed phone screens, out of control situations. But as the universe gave us these situations, it also gave back some beautiful ones! The dead battery leaving us stranded lead to a sweet 6 doggo sleep over that we had so much fun at! And then 2 days later followed another one! These pups have been well socialized in the past week πŸ˜… and highlights will be making it to our first ever 6 dog pack walk and ending it with a wicked little vanaway with 4 friends, 3 vans, 3 dogs and a serene little lake to bask in the sunshine.

Breathe through those tough times guys. Beauty does follow. Have an amazing week everyone, DM me to get your pup out on some of these wild experiences 🐺🌿
