What does a tired behaviourist do at the weekend…he falls to sleep on one of the dog settees! Love him 🥰🥰

Some people ask us whether we let our dogs on the bed….here’s Banjo and Trampus on their best behaviour.

You can’t help but laugh, esp when Trampus gets off the bed and has to jump back on….almost like a cowboy getting thrown out of the saloon doors mid-fight scene :-)

Who doesn’t need this pony in their lives? One of Ian’s lovely client’s son and daughter-in-law have Archie P who is The Devon Champagne and Confetti Pony. Ian saw them this week and in one of our follow up emails Mary told us about Archie P.

What a wonderful and lovely idea. Hope Archie P makes you smile as he does us 🙂

Couldn’t resist posting these, a friend - who is an experienced and reputable breeder - has these liver and white working springer pups available. I can confirm they are absolute GORGEOUS (and Ian can confirm they would be a great working dog or addition to a family with an active lifestyle 🙂).

If you are looking, please do message Ian on 07484 274304 and he will put you in touch with the breeder.

Welcome to the pack….Raven….

The pack is growing again and we now have Raven, the large black lab on the right. He’s absolutely gorgeous but a change in family circumstance meant that the current owners couldn’t keep him.

He is a couple of months younger than Rooster and they are having a fine time playing. He is really confident, a little feisty, and Ian’s never seen a dog settle into the pack so quickly.

Nelson - black lab in the background is still going strong at 14 1/2 and has even been seeing wagging his tail around Raven - high praise indeed from the old pack leader 🙂

When you have really done the yoghurt pot justice….Banjo now heading off to the rest of the boys to have his face cleaned 🙂

Happy days!
