Fridays Friends 🫶🏼👏🏽

A breezy afternoon had the puppers going wild 🌬️ everyone was on top form, ears flapping, hair in our faces … not a care in the world 🤣

Albert had his running shoes on today! 🚀 he certainly can shift on & was definitely showing off! He was chuffed with himself to be right on speed Demon Monty Mouse’s tail 💨

We had a bit of a little legs club going today too which is unusual for a Friday for us! Lil Sonny made a new friend in Marvel this afternoon which was super cute to see 🥹 the pair enjoyed a little wrestling match 🤼

Our crew today; Teddy, Rubydoodle, Albert, Teddy🧸, Monty, Rafa, Churro, Travis, Marvel, Ritchie, Pennypot, Lil Sonny, Edna, Alfie, Dobby, Oswald, Bella & Stormi 🐾

Welcome to the pack Miss Poppy 🌹(why is there no poppy emoji?!?!)

This super sweet girly joined us this morning for her welcome session & she certainly slotted right in like she had been here for years!

She enjoyed a mosey around out fields and took in all the sniffs 👃🏼 before some goofy play with Deejay & Sadie 🥹 she even felt comfortable enough to pick a comfy bed to have a little rest on!

There was no stopping Bramble & Buddy today! The pair were absolute powerhouses, tanking around together making us dizzy 😅

We managed to get plenty of outside time in before the heavens opened this afternoon ☔️ much to Dobby’s disappointment as he is a true sun dog ☀️ 🤣

Our Thursday gang; Poppy, Buddy, Dobby, Jess, Hallie, Molly, Bonnie, Lilly, Ollie, Lenny, Sadie, Rosie, Deejay, Ottie, Bramble, Milly & Logan 🐾

Our Lovely Long Legs Finn is 4! 🎂🩵🥳

He brought in some goodies for his pals to take home 🥹 he’s had the BEST birthday bash zooming around with his friends & being showered with love from the humans - he deserves it 🫶🏼

Pennypot rolled in something stanky 🤮 so she needed a hose down before sulking on the bench for half an hour in protest 🤣 (sorry Penny you’re too pretty to be stinky) … so she was ‘airlifted’ to the field at Ritchie’s request! 🫡

Our lovely Friday Friends; Finn 🎈, Ollie, Rafa, Marvel, Albert, Milly, Penny, Alfie, Reggie, Ralph, Sully, Ritchie, Edna, Monty, Bertie, Oswald, Dobby, Teddy, Bella & Stormi 🐾
