Feeling emotional; I Had my final walk with these pair on Friday; their lovely owner Lynn is starting her well deserved retirement from being a valued Carer for many years. Lynn’s role has been invaluable and so it was important I played my part in taking care of her fur babies. Martha, the Bedlington Terrier I have had the pleasure of walking since 2017, so I’ve built such a bond with her.
I remember my first walk with Martha, she was this friendly, white, fluffy bundle of energy with the sweetest nature. Over the years she has made my job so unbelievably easy. With her good natured temperament, I knew I could literally walk Martha with any of my other clients dogs and I could 100% guarantee she would get along with them, and they got along with her too. Martha has been a hit with the hoomans as well. Any stranger to join us on the park or field, she would immediately run over to greet them, weaving around their legs, flirting with them and charming their socks off to give her a big fuss and who could refuse such a cutie. She has always been such a pleasure to walk.
In 2020, I welcomed aboard Martha’s new live in sister Tilly. My first encounter with Tilly was a little different to the one with Martha. Tills was a little nervous; a rescue, fresh in the UK from overseas, she looked so fragile and skittish. I knew with confidence she was in good hands with Lynn. It took time but with a little nurturing and encouragement, she gained some confidence and it was so endearing watching her gradually warm to the other doggies. I managed to gain her trust and I grew to love her just as much as Martha.
Lynn, thank you so for being such a lovely client and trusting me with your girls over the last few years. I will miss them and my walks will not be the same without them. It’s been an absolute pleasure. Good luck with your retirement 😃❤️🐶🐾
Lots of love
