We've been meaning to pay a visit to Helmsley Walled Garden for a while now. We love the fact that you can bring your dog along with you, as many similar formal gardens in the area don't allow dogs. The only rule is that dogs have to remain on the lead, which is pretty reasonable!… Continue reading Helmsley Walled Garden, North Yorkshire

Waggy Tail Days at Beningbrough Hall, York
Beningbrough HallĀ have recently trialled special Dog Friendly days, so today we went along to one of them and here's what we thought. Previously, only assistance dogs had been allowed into the gardens & hall. Dogs have always been allowed in the parkland/grounds (and it's free to explore if you weren't already aware). But for the… Continue reading Waggy Tail Days at Beningbrough Hall, York
Therapy Dogs Nationwide
Just before Christmas, Piper's Therapy Dog application was approved & we were given the go ahead to begin working. We've had such a positive response since posting about becoming volunteers, we thought we'd share our story. Initially we were registered with, probably, the most well-known therapy dog charity in the UK. I won't go into… Continue reading Therapy Dogs Nationwide

So when we were strolling around the grounds of Beningbrough Hall today, you can probably imagine, like many others, we were thrilled to see… Continue reading Bluebells at Beningbrough!
Full Grooming Routine
90% of the time I self groom Piper (she goes to the groomers if I'm really busy) so I thought I'd show you our little routine & how we do things. It certainly takes me a lot longer than it would a trained professional (usually with a few added profanities) and I'm pretty sure I… Continue reading Full Grooming Routine
Brownie Pack Holiday
So Piper has been an important member of my Brownie Unit pretty much since she was 6 months old, so it was no surprise that she would be joining us on our pack holiday. Piper wears her own, specially adapted, uniform so she looks the part. She even had her own special camp blanket made… Continue reading Brownie Pack Holiday
Emma Bearman Photography
On Sunday 3rd of September 2017, we joinedĀ EmmaĀ for one of her shoot days. We met her at Newmillerdam Country ParkĀ in Wakefield, Yorkshire. We already knew Emma, as we'd met at Dog Fest North 2016. This was a special day for Piper, as she met up with her litter brother, Milo, for the first time since… Continue reading Emma Bearman Photography

Our friends at Peach & Pooch tagged us to take part in the "What's in my Toy Box" tag on instagram this week. It was so well received & we had so many questions that I thought I'd share a blog post showing you our top 25 toys! Food Enrichment Toys This type of toy… Continue reading What’s In My Toy Box?
