FRIDAY FOCUS š
___________________________________
New for Fridays!
This is your opportunity to tell us all about your dogs! And hopefully at the same time, let us know why you enjoy bringing them to The Secret Garden. Let us have a few paragraphs of interesting and fun facts about your pooch, together with a few photos and we will publish the best ones each Friday
So here goes with a joint one to start us off, my granddogs Willow and Winnie
___________________________________
WILLOW is an 8 year old Rottweiler, adopted by Callum when she was 1 True to her breed, itās her responsibility to protect her family. From visitors, dogs, delivery drivers, squirrels and noises nobody else can hear (Iām not sure she would bother with actual intruders). Sheās also responsible for clearing the house of all food items. Useful if youāre dieting. Not so good if youād just left something on a high shelf to eat later! Sheās the most loyal and loving family dog but SHE DOES NOT LIKE OTHER DOGS (except about 5) sheās very strong and very reactive which makes walks āout in the worldā quite challenging and stressful. Secure fields are our lifeline! On the plus side, as a dog walking company, she has taught us all we would ever need to know about managing reactive dogs and guided us on how to build a secure park suitable for dogs like her
Her sister WINNIE on the other hand is the softest most sociable soul. Kind and loving in every way (especially if you have treats š) But unfortunately loves rolling in fox p**p. Sheās almost 5 and was very much the baby of the family until little human brother Frankie came along. So she found the adjustment quite tough. Sheās done so well though
Win has to be on a diet the whole time to keep her trim (which is hard with her sister forever giving her āadvanced food theftā lessons). Sheās really overweight in one or two of the pictures Iāve chosen but currently looking amazing. Well done Winnie
