We welcomed the very lovely Ernie to the group on Monday. He is a beautiful rescue Springer spaniel and Saffy’s new housemate. He made friends with everyone easily and wasn’t bothered by the youngsters antics! We look forward to many more walks with him 🐕🐾

We had the pleasure of meeting some lovely new puppies and their owners for the new puppy classes. Everyone got off to a great start with the first recall exercises. A few couldn’t make it to the first class so we look forward to meeting them next week 🐕😊🐾

It was just the fab four for Monday and Thursday this week. They loved their time together, Barnaby and Pippa mostly playing while Saffy and Leo followed sniffs. Everyone is making the most of the remaining sunshine 🐕🐾😊

The last class for this course of puppy classes. It is always so sad to say goodbye after getting to know them all over the weeks we have worked together. We covered some more recall and moving away from distractions. As usual, the owners and puppies threw themselves into the exercises. I hope to see them again soon, it’s been a real pleasure 😊🐕🐾

We did the relaxing Rucksack Walk for our last class. Everyone came prepared and settled into it really well. It was lovely to see all the dogs and their owners so relaxed and laid back. Jasper finished the class with a comedy cup moment! I’m looking forward to seeing everyone again in a couple of weeks for the rolling class 😃🐕🐾

Mac joined us on Thursday. They found the newly mown areas very interesting to explore. There was some serious splashing in the lake before more play from the three youngest on the home straight! 🐕😊🐾

Barnaby and Pippa enjoyed playing together as usual while Leo and Saffy took a slightly slower pace. Everyone enjoyed a good swim though 🐕🐾😊

The dogs enjoyed learning to settle and relax on their blankets. After a little play break, they then enjoyed learning the middle exercise. Everyone did really well and the dogs had a lot of fun 🐶😃🐾

The puppy parents did a great job of teaching their puppies the all important stay building up distance slowly. They then moved on to the hand touch which the puppies enjoyed and picked up really quickly. 🐕😃

Lovely walk last Thursday. Wilf joined again and we met up with Dasho and her two charges. Lots of play and lots of swimming. Pippa went off on her own but was soon back with us! 🐕🐾
