🐾 WISDOM WEDNESDAY: LOOSE LEAD WALKING 🐾

Loose lead walking isn’t about having your dog glued to your side for the whole walk — it’s about helping them learn how to walk comfortably and calmly alongside you. 🐶💚

✨ WHY IS IT GOOD?

🐾 Less pulling = more comfortable walking
Constant pulling can put unnecessary pressure on your dog’s neck and body. A loose lead makes walks more comfortable for everyone.

🧠 It teaches focus & self-control
Your dog learns to pay attention to you and make calmer choices around all those exciting smells, sights and distractions!

💪 It’s better for their body
Learning not to constantly pull helps encourage a more natural and comfortable way of walking.

❤️ It strengthens your relationship
Training together builds communication, trust and understanding between you and your dog.

🐕 SO, HOW DO YOU TEACH IT?

✨ Reward the good behaviour — praise or treat your dog when they’re walking nicely on a loose lead.

✨ Stop when they pull — when the lead goes tight, stop and wait for the lead to loosen before continuing.

✨ Keep sessions short — you don’t need to practise for the entire walk. A few minutes at a time is plenty!

✨ Keep it fun & realistic — make training enjoyable and remember that your dog is still out there to sniff, explore and have fun! 🌿🐶

And most importantly… the whole walk doesn’t need to be perfect! 🥰

Every dog is different and will learn at their own pace. Don’t put too much pressure on yourself or your dog. Celebrate the little wins, give them plenty of opportunities to be a dog, and enjoy your walks together. 💚🐾

Progress over perfection, always! ✨

🐾 WELCOME TO THE HOLLY’S HAPPY HOUNDS TEAM, STANLEY! 🐾

Everyone, meet the newest member of the gang… the cheeky chappy Stanley! 🥰💚

And yes… you read that right… ANOTHER STANLEY! 😂 So we’ve officially got two Stanleys in the Holly’s Happy Hounds family now! I think we’re going to have to come up with some nicknames before things get confusing 🤭

Stanley is such a lovely, playful boy and I’m super excited to have him joining our pooches on our group walks! 🐶🌳

I’ve got a feeling he’s going to fit right in with the gang and cause plenty of fun and mischief along the way! 🥹😂

Welcome to the family, Stanley! 💚🐾 We can’t wait for all the adventures ahead! 🐕✨

🐾 MOTIVATIONAL MONDAY 🐾

I think dogs teach us a lot about life without even realising it… 🐶💚

🌿 Take the scenic route
Sometimes the longer way is the best way. You never know what you might discover along the way.

✨ Get excited about the small things
A favourite treat, a muddy puddle, a new walking route or a cuddle. The little things can be the best things.

🥹 Be excited to see the people you love
Dogs never hide how happy they are to see their favourite people. Maybe we could all be a little more like that.

🐾 Everyone has their own pace
Some dogs are confident straight away, others need a little more time. There’s no right pace — and the same goes for us.

🌱 Trust the process
Not every day looks like progress, but that doesn’t mean you aren’t moving forward.

🎾 Make time for play
Life shouldn’t be all about being busy and getting things done. Sometimes you just need to run around, have fun and be a little silly.

😴 Rest is productive too
Even the busiest little paws need a good nap. Resting doesn’t mean you’re falling behind — sometimes it’s exactly what you need to keep going.

So this Monday, maybe take a little inspiration from our four-legged friends…

Slow down. Enjoy the little things. Trust your journey. Make time for fun. And don’t forget to spend time with loved ones. 💚🐾

Happy Monday from Holly’s Happy Hounds! 🐶🌿✨

🌟 SUNDAY SUPERSTAR — ELSIE! 🌟

This week’s Sunday Superstar has to be our lovely Elsie! 🥹💚🐾

Elsie has been staying with me for her dog sit and she has been an absolute pleasure from start to finish! 🏡🐶

At 22 years old, she has settled in SO incredibly well, made herself right at home and has been such a good girl throughout her stay. 🥰 She’s taken everything in her stride, enjoyed her little adventures and has just been an absolute superstar!

It’s honestly been so lovely having her around, and she’s been a little dream to look after. 💚

Well done Elsie — you’re definitely this week’s Sunday Superstar! 🌟🐾

Give this gorgeous girl some love in the comments! 🥹👇💚

🐾 The past couple of days with the gang! 🐾

It’s been another busy few days of adventures with the Holly’s Happy Hounds gang! 🐶💚

✨ Sunny had his very first walk with us and what a little superstar he was! 🥰
🌿 We’ve been discovering loads of new tracks and exploring new adventures with the walking gang — I think the dogs are enjoying finding new places just as much as I am! 😂🐾
🎓 Bella & Maverick’s puppy training is continuing to grow and flourish, and it’s been so lovely watching their confidence and skills develop! 🥹💚
🏡 And of course, Merlin & Elsie have been an absolute pleasure to dog sit! They’ve fitted right in and have kept me very busy with cuddles, walks and plenty of fun. 🥰🐶

Another few days filled with waggy tails, muddy paws, new adventures and lots of happy hounds! 🐾🌿💚

Welcome to the very first Feedback Friday at Holly’s Happy Hounds! 🐶✨

I thought it was about time I started sharing some of the lovely feedback I’ve received from my amazing clients and their humans. 🥹💚

So, kicking things off with a lovely review from Jacqui, who puts her trust in me to look after Henry during the day.

Knowing that everytime I see Henry he rushes to the door for fussing and cuddles honestly makes my heart so happy! 🥹🐾 It’s exactly why I love what I do.

A massive thank you to Jacqui for taking the time to leave such a kind review — your support means so much to my little business. 💚

Keep an eye out for Feedback Friday every week, where I’ll be sharing more lovely words from the wonderful people who trust Holly’s Happy Hounds with their furry family members! 🐶🐾

Meet Deno the tiny Dino! 🐢💚

Today’s check-in was a little different to my usual visits — Deno just needed his dinner, a fresh top-up, a little bit of TLC and a tiny cuddle 🥰

And what a cool little dude he is! 😎🐢 Slow but mighty, Deno definitely made an impression! 💚

It’s also a little reminder that Holly’s Happy Hounds looks after more than just hounds! 🐶🐱🐰🐢 From dogs and cats to our smaller, shelled and feathered friends, I’m happy to help make sure all your pets are cared for while you’re away. 💚

Deno, you’re officially part of the gang! 🐢🦖🐾

A VERY busy Tuesday with today’s gang! 💚🐶

🐾 Luna is back with us for a couple of days and enjoyed her walk 🥰

🐾 Maverick enjoyed his little puppy walk, followed by LOTS of playtime afterwards! 🐶💨

🐾 Ronnie is sticking to smaller walks this week after being neutered, but he’s still as full of beans as ever! 😂

🐾 Albert is back for his week of walks and adventures — and yep, another ball obsessed member of the gang! 🎾😂 Honestly, I’m starting to think these dogs love their balls more than they love me! 🤣

🐾 Henry had a lovely sunny check-in, which of course included plenty of sunbathing! ☀️😎

🐾 And the ONE AND ONLY SUNNY IS BACK! 🥹💚 I’ve missed this girl so much, and of course we had to catch up on a LOT of ball throwing! 🎾😂

🐾 Merlin & Elsie are still enjoying their dog sit and having lots of fun with the gang! 🥰
