First day beating for my fellow APGI Ruth, and what a day to do it! 🍂

A great team around us, some brilliant dogs to watch, and a lot of laughs along the way. A Friday well spent ☺️

Congratulations to Julia & Zero and Laura & Flora, who passed their Beginner Pet Gundog Assessment this evening 👏🏼

Both teams have come on brilliantly since week one, and it’s lovely to see how much the dogs enjoy working with their owners ☺️

Well done, both! Looking forward to seeing you for The Novice Pet Gundog next month ⭐️

Hiking the Malvern Hills with Leonard today 🐾⛰️

Other dogs, other people, wildlife everywhere. And still, he chose me.

That’s the whole point of training. A wonderful relationship and freedom to be a dog. When your dog chooses to check in, wants to work with you, that’s when the real fun starts.

This is what safe, off lead adventures actually look like. ❤️

Wednesday walks won’t be the same without you, Luna 💔

We unexpectedly lost one of our most special group walk regulars last week. This gentle giant brought so much joy to every walk, always bouncing along with her goofy, sweet nature that always made me smile.

Our Wednesday morning walks have a Saint Bernard shaped gap in them now. We’ll miss you, Luna. Sending so much love to her family. 😔💖
