ITS ALL ON IN THE BUSH!.
Lucy, Molly, Towzer.
Towzer found a stick and was eager to start a game of stick wars which I let them do for a few minutes with Lucy umpiring.
Molly continued diggingTua's hole he started 2 yrs ago. Towzer helped
Lucy got a chance a retrieval at the dog park area.
They where all really well behaved when an unaccompanied wandering dog showed up and it was time to go home.
Jet is away on medical leave so we wish him a sp*edy recovery.

WE ARE AT OUR LOCAL DOG PARK HAVING AN ADVENTURE. No other dogs there though! Max Scout Ringo Ernie Kela Maddy Mini Buddy Sooty Louis Chilli Snoop.
They had a blast running around over lots of open ground (its only sheep fencing so still needed to supervise carefully). We popped to the next paddock and made good use of the horse trough for a drink. There where jumps and any tunnels we could find to have fun with. We made sure everyone had success and built confidence. Of course Mini rolled in the horse p**p and many others attempted it as Fern chased them away. Kela and Maddy tried to take everyone on far away adventures but we had a good eye on them.
(although this is the local designated dog off leash exercise area for dogs, be aware that it has minimal fencing. Being right next to the airport it can be loud. It is also storage for various other things like the tiered seating. Its does have a couple of trees. There is no water or p**p bags or rubbish bins. The main access is way off the road.)

CURIOSITY GETS YOU PEED ON if your not careful where you stick your head! Maxi, Winston, Monty, Louis and guest Buddy. AND CJ came too.
When they find another dogs p*e mail they all want to sniff and reply. But forgetting manners and barging in can get your head p*ed on 😭. Not that anyone seems to care. 🤣
Monty is running around causing general mayhem and runs out of steam when it comes to fetching sticks.
Winston and Louis engage in their usual stick wars with Winston doing the inviting.
Maxi is briefly on lead to remember he has got ears!

TIDES IN - tongues out, and the absolute best kind of chaos! 🌊🐶
Tig, Roxy, Nova, and Sprocket took over the beach today, and it was pure magic. Between splashing in the waves and epic games of stick chase, the whole crew stayed right together the entire time.
The sweetest part? Having Sprocket back with the crew! You could tell how much everyone missed him and he was thrilled to be back in his happy place.
Heart full, paws sandy, and four very sleepy, happy pups! 🐾❤️

A DEVELOPING LEADER SHOWS OFF HIS SKILLS. Tua is really practicing his leadership on this walk. He decides to take a different route at one point but always stays within sight.
Chilli loves to climb and explore a little off track and shows off her agility on this steep rock.
Tiggy is full of fun and loves to steal sticks. This is her first walk in this bush and she was really excited.
Sprocket is a new dog now the new meds have kicked in. See a separate short post Ive made of his new energy.

Beautiful Bear joined Minnie, Louis, Scout, Ernie & Kela today....and had the best time. He was a little concerned about the noise coming out of Minne while playing with Louis till self appointed referee Kela assured him its just all noise. Scout and Ernie stuck together for a good sniff fest and avoided the crazy bunch🤩🤣💜

Three red dogs and one blond dog walk into the bush.

After an hour, the three red dogs stop.

“We’re lost!”

The blond dog looks around calmly and says, “Stay close. I know exactly where we are.”

The red dogs follow him for another hour.

One asks, “Are you sure you know the way?”

The blond dog grins. “Absolutely.”

“Then why are we walking in circles?”

“Because,” says the blond dog, “I’m making sure we get lost in the right direction.” 😂

We went bush and Winston, Minnie, Maddie, Kela & Ernie had a blast. Winston and Minnie discovered the joy of each other's company and celebrated with a dose of the zoomies. Ernie had a bit more pep in his step and kept an eye on everyone, Maddie & Kela kept trying to head off on their own excursions but made the right choice when called back. Such fun🤩

A beautiful morning down by the creek with the crew! 🐾☀️
Here’s how today went down:
💜Drago had plenty to say and made sure all his barks were heard! 🗣️
🧡Ned kept it quiet during the walk... only to release a whole symphony of barks in the car on the way home! 🚗🔊
💚Louis was on a mission to start a game of fetch, but no one else was taking the stick bait today. 🪵
💙Flora turned into a little creek investigator and found half a tennis ball. She promptly abandoned it after realizing half-balls don't roll quite right. 🎾
🌼Photoshoot Drama: Trying to get everyone to sit nicely next to the last few blooming daffodils was a whole sport. Some cooperated, some didn't do as well—but we managed to snap a few gems! 🌼📸
Drago and Louis got in a sweet little play session, and everyone had absolute heaps of fun splashing around and enjoying each other's company. Tired, happy pups all around! 🐶❤️🌊

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CAESAR. He just loves his friends and always checks to make sure they are OK.
We explored a new place today so its a slower pace to find all the good sniffy spots.
We find a safe place for Nahla to have a swim. Maxi found the spring grass delicious. Caesar thought there was something interesting on my leg.!
Sprocket was spending time with his Buddy and CJ today.
