So lucky to have so many gorgeous walks from my home in the North York Moors - just remember to wear trousers however warm so you can avoid stinging nettles & protect against ticks.

Been so lovely getting the chance to walk my dogs with friends & their dogs while I am unable to drive. Really appreciate everyone coming my way so we can walk & missing those dogs I usually walk who I haven’t seen since my op 🐾

Gender, age, size, breed umbrella group (guarding/herding/terrier/gun dog …) & functional character can all influence how dogs play together. My starting point is finding the dogs who will be good influences on the play styles being observed….sometimes this involves more experienced ignoring another dogs play requests till they understand the rules 🐾

Play with other dogs benefits from nuance & discretion. Knowing your dogs play style & preferences matter if you want to ensure it’s mutually beneficial. Some dogs especially pushy teenagers, need stricter guidance than others … play is no fun if you get bowled over as you can’t keep up with sharp turns or speed. Some dogs adapt better than others usually because they have had the right type of exposure to different dogs at the right time…. If your dog doesn’t pause finding a more experienced dog who can show them is key…. This often starts with them being ignored by the other dog till they demonstrate understanding. Listening ears always need to be engaged so they respond to cues.

Getting better daily at tasks with my non dominant hand while I am banned from using my dominant right hand for 8 weeks. Patience & thinking outside the box is key ….glad I have the help & support of my family & that Lola is such an easy dog to walk 🐾
