🤶🎄🐾What a wonderful day it was yesterday at the field!

Massive THANK YOU to everyone who booked to come and see Mrs Santa Paws 🐾 😍.
And I am sure you can all see by the photos that she loves dogs sooo much.

And the dogs were all on the good list ✅️. They all got a personalised gift bags, full of yummy treats!

Humans had a great catch up with her and went home with delicious 😋 homemade mice pies.






Sorry for those who didn't get booked in - i think next year she will have to do it over 2 days 😂.

She's cleaned her outfit and is now wrapping lots of Xmas presents 🎁 for all of her 5 Labradors.

I am so Thankful to own a 😍 gorgeous old cottage ( built in 1810!) In the most beautiful part of Dumfries & Galloway. 🌎

Then to have my 2 businesses here is just fabulous 👌.

Its hard work BUT every day I am here makes me feel like the luckiest person.

I have 2 of the best children I could ask for, of course my kind , hard working husband, 5 dogs and my 3 horses and on a morning like this everything just feels fantastic ❤️.

What are you all grateful 🙏 for?

It could be your health 💪
Your family 👩‍👧‍👦
Or, im my opinion your 4 legged friends 🐾🐶
Comment with a photo, if you would like too.

When its pouring with rain 🌧, you have to clean your dogs after a walk 🧽🧼, its dark ⚫️ when you get up and dark 🌃 when you get home from work! It can be tough!

But always remember 💡we all have small things to be Thankful for.

This is to all my wonderful customers who continue to support me - i appreciate 💗 every single booking .

Mrs Santa Paws is paying the field a visit in a few weeks 💕so The Pup Hut needed a good clean for her coming!

I booked the field for 2 hours this afternoon so my husband and I could get to work! 🧽🧼

All the wooden 🪵boards had to come off one by one to get the power washer underneath so we could get all the green algae off.

The outside of the shelter has been done ✔️.

We were freezing 🥶 and wet but its looks soooo much better.

Just the inside to do , then I can start decorating it with lots of lovely Christmas 🎄 🤶 Decorations.

Once its fully decorated I will put up some photos 🥳.

Not often I do a video but here it is!
This rain 🌧 has been awful but its to dry up..woo hoo!

Can I ask anyone who uses a ball Thrower not to use until it dries up a bit - it causes big skids in the field and the grass won't grow back for a while. Thank you 😊

Wow!

What an incredible day we have had attending Dumfriesshire and Cumbria Greyhound Rescue Show at Lockerbie today.

As always, it was well organised, well attended and so many beautiful Greys ❤️.

A very difficult task went to head judge Lee from Lost Dogs Dumfries & Galloway. She done a brilliant job in choosing her favourites in every Class.

And I was so delighted when my very good friend 💚 and her dog, Blaze were awarded as Reserved Champion! 🥈.

I was given a certificate a couple of years ago and was made a lifetime honourery member of this fantastic charity. I am so proud to be a part of this local family.

My son Clark was a brilliant help serving friends and customers with stock from my shop Raw Meats and Treats .

Hope you all enjoy my photos.

Good Morning ☺️

As you all know I have a memory board in the field to remember our precious dogs who are no longer with us.

Many customers have put up a plaque or a tag as their dogs loved the field and for alot of dogs its the only secure place they can get off lead.

One very special girl was Ruby ❤️. Her and her brother Teddy have been visiting the field for years . She loved to run around, jump over agility equipment and was always so full of joy.

She had her sweet sixteenth birthday here with all her family, sadly a short time after, Ruby passed over the rainbow 🌈 bridge.
She was so fit and young at heart and didnt act 16!

Her parents came yesterday to paint the memory board and put up the other tags for me 🙏. How kind.

So a HUGE Thank you for offering to help and Bobby & Epi are now on the board where they can be remembered.

My customers are amazing!

I am so thankful to you all. Many of you I have known for nearly 5 years! How wonderful 😍

A reminder that clocks will go back and hour, early Sunday morning.
But because we all have dogs that certainly does not mean an extra hour in bed! ⏰️🛏🤣

Alot more cars are driving into the field via the large gate.
Due to the rain we have had and rain forecasted could I ask to only use if its for a safety reason as the ground is getting ruined and I would hate for a car 🚗 to get stuck!

Reversing your car up the the Customer Entrance ( Space 1) is where everyone should be using - thanks for your understanding.

If you are a new customer or a long supporting one I would appreciate if you have 5mins to write a review! This gives others an idea of what to expect on their first visit. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
-------------------------------------------------------

The field does not have permanent fixtures for dogs to use in the field,
Why not?

This time of year the field starts to get muddy, wetter and having them makes that area of the field a bit of a mess.

I do have agility jumps, the reels and jumps that can all be moved to prevent muddy areas.

I do offer a 100% secure field for your dog for the same price as when I opened.

A huge Thank you for choosing it to let your dogs have off lead fun

That's the grass 🎑🟩 cut again tonight - maybe for the last time this year?

Could I please ask you all a favour and read the following points.

Today i went into the field in-between customers and picked up more poo ( 5 💩) 😌

🚗 When you arrive please park INFRONT OF THE LOGSTORE 2 spaces close to the gate

👀 Always watch your dog! 📱 I see so many customers on their phone and it only takes 30seconds and your dog could be doing a 💩

✋️ pick up ALL the poo! Ive notice that some is being left in the grass

🐾 Keep your dog IN your car until the person before is out of the field

⏰️ Arrive 5mins before your appointment, no need to be here too early 😀

⚾️ If your dog plays with a toy, remember to pick it up and put it in the " to be washed " box.

I pride myself in cleaning toys every evening but alot of used toys are getting put back in with the clean ones! 👌

🟫 My son and I have filled in all the holes this morning - I know there are alot of Mole hills and dogs love to dig so if I could ask you just to kick the dirt back in the hole 🕳 ( Ive been in touch with vermin control for the moles )

Sorry for last picture 💩🤢 but I Have to pick up dog poo on a daily basis.

Thanks to everyone who does follow the rules and makes sure the field is clean and tidy every time its used.

Emma 😀
