What a great start to June! ☀️🐾

We’ve been making the most of the lovely weather with plenty of walks and outdoor fun. The dogs have had an absolute blast!

Next week’s schedules are all sorted, the dog car is cleaned out, fresh water bowls are ready, and the towels are packed and waiting for whatever adventures come our way. 🚗🐕💦

Here’s to another week of happy dogs and wagging tail

🐾DOG WALKER OUTSMARTED 🤣🐾

So today’s score:
📱 Phone stolen once
🧢 Cap stolen twice
🎾 Balls thrown approximately a million times
🐶 Dogs entertained: 100%
🙋‍♀️ Dog walker outsmarted: absolutely.

This morning’s walks were calm, peaceful and exactly how you’d imagine a relaxing day with dogs… and then the afternoon happened! 🤣

The spaniels were in full voice, demanding that tennis balls be thrown immediately and repeatedly. 🎾🎾🎾

Then came the trio, who decided to work together in what can only be described as a carefully planned distraction operation.

They all wandered over, sat beautifully and looked up at me with their sweetest faces. Obviously they wanted treats. As I was closing the treat bag, I accidentally dropped my phone and didn’t realise one cheeky cocker spaniel had already nicked it! 😳

As I bent down to retrieve my phone, the same furry criminal made off with my baseball cap! 🧢

Just when I thought the excitement was over, the usually quiet and innocent golden retriever decided he’d join the fun and pinched the cap too! 🤦‍♀️😂

“During hot weather, your dog’s safety and comfort come first. On particularly warm days, walks may be shortened or replaced with supervised garden time in a shaded area of your own backyard, with plenty of water and comfort breaks to keep them cool and safe.” bathing

🐾 A Little Reflection Today 🐾

On each of today’s mini group walks, I had a few quiet minutes to stop, reflect and realise just how far I’ve come — and how lucky I am to spend my days with such wonderfully smart, intelligent and friendly dogs ❤️

Watching them together always makes me smile. They look out for one another (even when they like to pretend they’re all cool 😎), they share their space beautifully, wait patiently for tummy and back tickles in turn, and never seem to get jealous.

Every dog has their own little personality, but seeing them bond, trust and enjoy their walks together honestly means the world to me.

I love them all to bits 🐶❤️

Here are a few photos from this week.
