Milo is now summer ready thanks to AJs Classy Canines !

Not only did he come out looking and smelling beautiful but he also had such a waggy tail!

The boys were definitely excited when we brought Russell home, but as the weeks have gone by it's been beautiful to watch their bond become deeper and deeper

Milo loves these quiet moments and snuggling down so gently during feeds

My baby is so lucky to grow up alongside his doggy brothers. It truly is a love like no other

I have been a little bit quiet on my business page since Russell joined our family, but I just wanted to share a few of my favourite moments from the last two months 😍

Milo and Red have completely fallen in love with him too and have now started to find the rhythm of our new lives

Now we are above water I can start posting more doggy tips and tricks again. But please note that I am still on maternity leave and I want to focus my time on family rather than starting to take bookings for pack members quite yet

This is not intended to start a debate, but purely for informational purposes

As a starting point, I have created a new infographic to help people to understand what banning the XL Bully can mean for them. Feel free to share.
I have seen alarming posts already saying people have destroyed their dogs, vets are refusing to treat them, dogs dumped.
The law has not changed yet, do not panic.

Since Russell came home he has been struggling to sleep the night through in the crib next to our bed, he just wants mummy cuddles and cries being by himself, even though he's less than a foot away from me. But during the day he has been more than happy sleeping in his moses basket on his own.

So last night I borrowed a method that I use in puppy training. One of the most common mistakes that new dog owners make is allowing their pups to sleep where they plonk, rather than having a consistent space for sleeping day or night.

We used this crate training theory and placed him in his moses basket, and then the basket itself in the crib next to our bed. WOW! What a difference! I had to wake him for feeds, no crying at all in the night and after each feed he went straight back to sleep again! 😁🎉

Let's hope he keeps this up! 🤞

Today would have been Russell's due date, but the boys are very glad that he is already with us!

They have been amazing with him. Even though they have never been excited about other people's babies visiting our house, they just knew instantly that this was OUR baby. They have been super slow, very gentle and have been waiting for permission each time before approaching him

Super happy that littleman has such wonderful brothers to grow up around.... I am sure many more photos to come

Introducing you all to little Russell 😍

Arrived yesterday morning with help from the amazing team at Musgrove Park Hospital

Alex and I are completely in love with him already.

Just so happy listening to his little bros heartbeat and wiggles 😍

It seems very fitting that marks the end of a very emotional week for me, as today, I officially start my maternity leave 👶

Saying 'see you soon' to my four legged besties whilst pumped full of hormones has been much tougher than I thought it would be, but at 37 weeks pregnant it's time I hang up my walking boots for a while and start preparing for our families next adventures

Thanks so much to everyone who has supported me and my business over the last 5 years in Somerset. I really do have the best job in the world, and feel very lucky to have worked with such wonderful poochies and their owners

Looking forward to sharing updates once Littleman is ready to join us
