A Breakthrough day for Zola!

Posted on May 28, 2010March 15, 2013 by admin

A great walk today in Drymen with Holly and Ivy, Murphy, Skye and Zola.

Zola has been a little unsure until today, then SUCCESS – she decided that she was going to enjoy her walk. She was off lead for the entire walk, and stayed and interacted with the other pack members the whole time. Ivy and Zola had lots of fun running about…lots of play bows going on! I am so pleased

. Welcome to my pack Zola, where we always have fun!

A lovely walk with a new pack member – Marshall!

Sun is shining still – hurrah!

A lovely walk over Dumbrock Moor with all the dogs enjoying a long swim and cool down at the loch.

New boy Marshall absolutely LOVED his walk – he ran about constantly for the whole time – he will be exhausted tonight!!

Missing Boris….and Laddie & Meg….definitely feels odd to walk without them, but they’ll all be back soon enough!

Hope the sun keeps shining!

Sun!!

A lovely walk today with a group of the friendliest dogs you could find – Laddie, Meg & Jude (the labs), Pepsi (the boxer), Zola (the ridgeback) & my own two dogs Holly & Ivy (the vizslak). We stopped on many occasions to cool down (great complaint!!) and all the dogs enjoyed a swim at the loch on the moor.

If only every day were like this….

Warm Welcome to our new girl – Molly

A warm welcome to our newest member – Molly the miniature Labradoodle.

She had a great day with a lovely walk round Mugdock and Carbeth accompanied by Holly & Ivy (the Vizslak), Meg & Laddie (the labs) & Alfa (the wire haired German pointer).

She really loved the open countryside, jumping into mud and water whenever she could, and enjoyed the company of the other dogs.

She is a lovely healthy, friendly, well balanced dog which is just the kind I like! (and she travelled well too!!)

Ahhhh, I’ve been so busy…

Sorry, haven’t posted my blog properly last week, just been too busy!! (Good complaint!).

A lovely walk today with all my fav. dogs – Laddie & Meg (the black labs), Jude (the golden lab), Murphy (the cocker spaniel), Skye (the collie) and my own two Vizslak Holly and Ivy.

I LOVE walks like today – sun is shining, the dogs all get on so well & enjoy their walk.

I may not say this when it is -10C in January, but for now I love my job!

Meg’s Ball

Posted on May 10, 2010March 15, 2013 by admin

Today, Meg found a ball, and although the other dogs (esp. Holly!) tried hard to get it off her, there was no way Meg was giving it up…..really funny.A lovely quiet walk today, with all the dogs playing really nicely – healthy & balanced pack – just the kind I like!

Jude’s Face

Posted on May 7, 2010March 15, 2013 by admin

Jude, the normally Golden Lab, just loves the muck/bogs/dirt. Today though, he really excelled – he leapt into a bog and landed face down in it…..I managed to persuade him to go in for a nice swim, but nothing would persuade him to put his face under the water…..Sorry Lynne!!

Look at Holly’s face in this photo….she is like “yeuch” – hysterical.

Jude does love his walks, and I love his antics, every time I take him out he makes me smile at something!

Meg found a hat…

Posted on May 4, 2010March 15, 2013 by admin

A lovely walk today through Drymen’s forest….and today’s find for Meg was a hat, which was a first! She has found gloves, baby toys but never before has she found a hat – and boy! was she pleased with herself! The big black tail wagged every time I said “What have you got there, Meg?”

I love waiting to see what she finds every day.

Boris the Vizsla was a little naughty today, kept wanting to “play” with the other dogs, so spent a lot of our walk on lead. He is entering his teenage years, so a little mischief is to be expected….

Through the forest…

A nice walk today, with the rain staying off! Jude had great fun again today, still totally in love with Ivy….great taste, that boy.

I had the company of Skye today, which I don’t normally on a Friday, but his owner had an exam, so hope all went well, Glenda! Your dog always behaves beautifully.

Looking forward to the long weekend…have a great bank holiday Monday!

My favourite Golden Lab is Back – Jude!!

Posted on April 29, 2010March 15, 2013 by admin

Hurrah, after being missing from our Wild Walks for nearly 2 weeks, Jude is back….and OMG did that boy LOVE his walk today. He still loves Ivy, but then who could blame him??!!

He ended up in every bit of mud/water/bog that he could find, he nearly rivals Vito when it comes to leaping into the mud – sorry Lynne and Elle!!

Out with us today were Meg and Laddie, the best mannered dog – Skye, My wolf Vito and of course wee Boris (who isn’t so wee anymore – I keep mistaking him for Ivy)

Anyway, Welcome back, Jude! We have all missed you….
