There were some nice days this last week. On at least a couple of mornings the sun was out and the sky was blue. It makes all the difference when there’s a lot of walking to do.

The photo was taken on Bolsover hill, with the castle in the background.

Chino and his friend Frank have both been out for walks last week. Luckily the weather was fine on the days they went. Lets hope they continue their track record for having walks on sunny days!

Otis was making the most of the sun last week. And there’s more good weather to come this week apparently.

There are also new lockdown restrictions coming into play from Monday, but as with all the others, nothing will change with the services we offer. The only thing we ask is that our clients contact us immediately if they are told they may have been in contact with someone with Coronavirus. This is so we can take extra precautions not to pass any infection on.

At least Otis seems quite happy to enjoy the sun by himself.

It’s been quite a few weeks since I’ve seen Sky. With his owners working from home during the lockdown, they have been taking him for his daily walks. However, now things are starting to get back to normal again, they had a long awaited evening out, so I took Sky for a sunset walk last Saturday.

As well as dog walking I also visit other types of pets when their owners are out. So if you’re worried about leaving your pet alone after so many months of being at home, give us a call for a free quote for a walk or home visit.

This is Sophie. She had walks last summer but she’s now started again because she needs more exercise than her owner can manage. So she’s now having a walk every weekday to get her out more. Luckily she lives near lots of footpaths, so there are plenty of options of where to go each day. The challenge is sometimes getting her outside. Especially if it’s raining.

This week has not been the greatest ever for weather. Despite he fact we are now into July, it’s been dull and raining most of the time. It didn’t stop the dogs though. If anything, they prefer it when it’s not too hot. So Pippa, Max, Sophie, Otis and Pepper have all been out and bout at some point in the last 7 days.

The photo above was taken on the old railway trackbed at Staveley, which is now a bridleway and cycle path. Ther was once a big loco shed not too far away, full of steam engines, waiting to pull their next coal train. It’s hard to imagine how industrial things once were around here.

This is Max. He’s a big friendly Lab with one little problem… He pulls… A lot!

In fact, Max pulls so much, his owners can’t hold him while he’s out for a walks. So I’m walking him to give him some exercise and (hopefully) teach him not to pull quite so much. He’s already getting better, so lets hope he keeps improving.

Good boy Max!

Becky and her friends had some home visits this week. The sun was out, so they had a good play out in the garden. It wasn’t enough for Becky though, so she gave some serious consideration to how she might get over the wall to next door. Luckily she’s a little dog and it’s a big wall, so her exploration of new teritory has been put on hold for now. Back to chasing tennis balls Becky!

It’s only a few weeks since there was frost on the ground, but spring has suddenly arrived here. This was the scene on Pepper’s walk near Worksop earlier this week. The sun was out and the trees are starting to green up ready for summer.

All our walks are still going ahead as normal. However there are some vacant slots available. So if your dog needs a walk, Give me a call on 07837 306824.

It’s been a very strange couple of weeks in the world of dog walking and it seems to be getting more surreal by the day. However life goes on as much as normal as possible. So with that in mind, this week new-boy Ollie has started having walks. Hello Ollie!
