It was such a beautiful morning that we had to stop and admire π ft. Knalas cuddle slime
ππ Tyke would manage to escape the eye of a tornado to get to me if he saw me crouch down for a cuddle
π₯°π€ Monday & Tuesday - Beautiful!
ππ Thursday & Friday
π±π Tuesday & Wednesday
π€ At The K9 Family we don't get The Monday Blues because this is what they look like for us π

π¦π Mia and Dollie aren't letting the rain dampen their day
ππ Monday
* We celebrated recovering from the flu by putting in some extra miles today πͺ It's been such a beautiful day and everyone has been in high spirits, especially Ryder. He LOVES seeing his pals after a weekend has passed π₯° We took it nice and steady on our afternoon walk up the Moor as it got hot, hot, hot!
π±π Thursday & Friday
π§ββοΈ Effectively managing in order to avoid micromanaging - Down stay at the local park
* Mia and I are preparing for the wild camping weeks ahead. With the Spring and Summer season changes - the wildlife and the array of scents they bring - Mia can struggle to switch off during a hiking pit stop or when we set up camp for an evening. On top of this, we live a very active, on-the-go lifestyle so we both get ants in our pants when we try to relax outside!
As the warmer weeks approach (hopefully π
), we will be practicing this more and more in order to avoid any micromanaging (I hate doing that, she hates it, everybody hates it!). We slacked on this training last year following her Kidney injury and broken feet. After a long while away from this, she did well with a modest 4 minutes with one "down" in a park where she usually flies around due to the Squirrels π
Although we had to end as a dog kept coming back and trying to eat my lunch π¬
π₯°π Monday
* Ryder is well and truly part of the family already. Dexter decided Ryder is his new best pal π Good choice, Dex! Sienna does a good job tiring Roxy out π
and little Lexi had a spring in her step this afternoon. Good job as there was some Heather to hop over today π
π€ Friday hike πͺπ
* Such a shame it was so misty we couldn't see the usual beautiful views but we loved it nonetheless π We were all pooped after this! Check Spaceman Dexter out πΊπ
π€π€΄πΈ Mia & Dexter exploring more of the Lake District this morning π An early gift from me as they're spending Valentines together again this year! π₯°
βοΈ Tuesday & Wednesday fun
π₯° Our dogs experience an average of only 10-13 winters. Enjoy the snow with them; they love it!
πΎπ₯°πͺ And we're back!
* What a wonderful day from start to finish π Everyone was so happy to be back and we've all clearly missed eachother, maybe not more than Rox and Dex did, though π
Welcome back, everyone! Here's to another year doing what we love the most π₯°
