18 months ago we lost our darling Border Terrier Bronson. I'm so glad I spent a whole afternoon 9 years ago taking prints of his paws - he's now immortalised in the Dog Trotters logo!

A gorgeous rainy day at work today! Although I'm nowhere near ready to say goodbye to the beautiful autumnal sunshine we've been enjoying recently, I couldn't help loving today's wet weather πŸ’§β€οΈπŸ™πŸΌ ###

I'm SO EXCITED and extremely proud to announce that Dog Trotters has been short-listed as a National Finalist for the UK Small Business Awards 2026!! After spending hours creating a five-page presentation showcasing the business and answering a series of pretty comprehensive questions, we've been invited to the red carpet awards ceremony in December to find out whether we'll be crowned the UK's Best Pet Business of the year πŸ˜πŸ’ƒπŸΌπŸ₯‚βœ¨

I've poured my heart and soul into the business over the last 22 years, and I'm hoping the judges will see this reflected in the presentation I created. Massive thanks to Kath Easthope, Olivia Cryer and Ness Noodle Clarke for your testimonials singing my praises!! And of course huge thanks to all my clients who have supported Dog Trotters throughout the last two decades (I will of course make an Oscar-acceptance-esque speech thanking everyone I know when we collect our trophy on stage πŸ˜‰).

Even if we don't actually win, just being a National Finalist is a huge honour - and we get to go to a huge party at the end of the year to celebrate our success!!

Yesterday I posted all my insect photos; today's it's all about fungi ❀️ We're slowly approaching autumn, and I for one am extremely excited for the cool, damp freshness of a new season (hopefully autumn is more well-behaved than summer was!!). These are my photographic collection of mushrooms and toadstools from last year, and I look forward to illustrating the fungi of 2026 in a few weeks time πŸ„πŸ„β€πŸŸ« xx

One of the joys of dog walking and spending all day, every day in the countryside are the daily encounters I have with wildlife. This is the first of several posts documenting the beauty of nature.

Amongst my favourites are Edward the damselfly (I adore his happy face πŸ₯°), Brian the slow worm (I rescued him from a cat who was toying with him) and a beautiful Dragonfly, Esmeralda. The final photo depicts a gorgeous cormorant majestically drying his wings beside the river. I watched him for several minutes until the dogs got bored and insisted we continue the walk 🀣

In 2017 I lost Rhys, my best friend and my co-pilot. He was by my side all day, every day for 18 years - I was 18 when he was born and 36 when he died; he was with me for half of my whole life at that time. When he departed this realm I planted a magnolia tree on his grave, which flowered every year without fail and by 2020 was 5 feet tall. Earlier this year it vanished without a trace, for absolutely no reason we could fathom.

In the last month - during this insane drought and continuous heatwave, which has caused immense suffering and difficulties for most living things - it's sprung up and is regrowing from scratch, from absolutely nowhere.

I like to think it's a message from my Mr Man that there is still hope and life, vibrancy and verdancy to look forward to.

SLEEPY COCONUT ❀️ Coconut's energy levels bely her tiny body; constantly on the go, always with a huge grin on her face I couldn't resist documenting the very rare occasions she had a little rest, recharging for her next adventure or treasure hunt πŸ₯°πŸ₯°πŸ₯°
