Hello peeps. I hope everyone is enjoying the lovely weather but managing to stay safe in the ๐ฅต. Its been unusually hot and as s result for the last few weeks I have to change up my times and walks to be safe for the dogs. There have been a few days that have been too hot to walk but I haven't left my pups in the lurch and have instead walked earlier when cool and did home visits later for short toilet breaks. We've enjoyed new more shader walks in the last few weeks in different areas and had new adventures and discovering different smells. The dogs all now know that the back pack i carry holds goodies including treats and water to keep them all happy. The weather remains good for the next week so I will continue safe practice for the pups while the weather is hot. Being local in the village has helped with the later Ferniegair walks as I can pop in over the course of the day to let the dogs out a few times when needed and a few of the dogs have benefited from that this week as Cash and Nala have had extra time with their auntie maz as you can see from the ever chilled out Cash in the pics. I do love the extra pup time.
There have been a few things happening of late. We now have a new van as the old one decided it was done. Many thanks to Lee the mechanic for keeping it well looked after for so long. The dogs are loving the new space and the air con in this weather.
This week we bid farewll and good luck to Bertie the lovely big labradoodle. He is moving to Blantyre and had his last walk with me on Tuesday. I will miss him lots and so will the pack but he is moving closer to his gran so will gets a lot of attention. This week also seen the introduction of the handsome Bronson. Another lovely labradore. His owners have recently moved into the village so Bronson will be joining the pack after a very successful trial walk with s few of his new pack buddies. I am looking forward to posting pics and updates of his new adventures with the pack.
On the Bonnybridge front both Hida and Ronnie have been getting off leash a lot more and are showing me how good they have been listening. Trust and a strong bond is everything when allowing off lead and I am so proud of them.
The walks are a little quieter at the moment but it is always a good time to do things to encourage training and a bond so I have been enjoying it. I will be advertising more spaces for Ferniegair once Bronson is fully settled with his new pack so if you are interested please get in contact. I am a local in the village with 12 years dog walking experience and trained in doggy first aid. Please feel free to get in contact. Have a fab weekend. ๐พ๐๐โฅ๏ธ
