Well - we have had Lupo to stay for the weekend - and it has been a total pleasure to ...   more »

Wow!! It feels weird - almost a whole weekend off!! For the first tie in ages we managed to get a break! I bought Simon a gundog training course for Barney for his Christmas present - to teach Barney how to walk to heel, flush birds and all that stuff and we were planning to go today to the first lesson. Problem was we couldn't find the address of where we needed to go - we looked through all our information on the gundog training school - but nothing - so in the end we took Barney for a walk over in Windsor instead. We took one of those float things - you can buy them on our online store - and he probably got more training with Simon than he would have done with the lesson.

Anyway - cant complain - can't be as bad as poor old Lupo - who after months of deliberation has his crown jewels removed - I know it is the right thing for him - but I cant help feeling sorry for him - it will be interesting to see how his behaviour changes over the coming months - keep and eye on the blog here and I will keep you updated on his progress. If you are out there Lupo reading this - our thoughts are with you -especially Simon who can really sympathise with you!

Anyway time for bed - and leave Simon to his superbowl - got a busy week ahead!! Got a new starter tomorrow - more of that to come!

I don't know how much people know about Briards but let me tell you they are huge!! bug Ernie is one of our favourite dogs when it comes to dog boarding! He is massive but really well mannered so doesn't trash the house too much!! Our little Barney acts all submissive when he comes over - but then again Barney acts like that when anyone comes over. I have just got backed from being dragged around for a walk by Ernie and my arms are killing me!! So much for being fit from all the walking an hour or so on a walk with Ernie and I need to get down the gym again!! Time for a long relaxing bath before we drop Ernie off - I'm gonna post some photos of him so you can see how big he is! Im for for my bath!

I'm so excited - the new woofwoofmeow.co.uk site is almost ready! We will be doing the final checks on the design this weekend and then hopefully it should be live later one this month - if it's not done by the end of February I'll have to kill someone!!

The new site will look totally different from any other dog walking site. It will still talk about all of our services - the pet sitting, dog walking and pet boarding etc - but will incorporate this blog and alos allow us to communicate wo all the woofwoofmeow customers better - you will be bale to add and see pictures of your dog as well as buy doggie related products online - so watch this space - I'll post a blog when it's ready for viewing.

Almost got a day off today!! Although Bir Ernie is coming around to stay later on! He's a massive Briard and we takes over the house when he comes in - should be fun though. Simon and I took Barney out for a walk this morning around Dorney Lake - so much for a day off!! It seems that they are really doing some serious building work now for the Olympics - makes walking the dogs around there a bit more difficult. It always seems to me that the grumpiest people in the world take up rowing - they never seem to be happy when doing their sport -doesnt look much fun.

Its getting busy at the rowing lake these days on the weeked and walking dogs - even just walkning Barney on his own is getting more difficult as roller bladers and skatedboarders start to take over. Dog walking in the winter is actually more easy than the summer - less people around for the dogs to trip up!

Anyway looking forward to Ernie coming over later - when he gets here I'll take his post his photo so you can check out how big he is!!!

Can you believe it - I've finally managed to figure out how to add a blog and finally found time to actually add something to it!!!

Welcome to everyone! I hope to keep this blog updated with all the antics of your dearly beloved pets that never fail to keep me amused every day. Tales (or is it tails!) of running, chasing, fouling and biting shall be brought to you every day - and if I have time I'll get some pictures of all our favourite pooches as well. As you all know I love looking after your dogs and now you'll get to see first hand just what they get up to when they are hanging out with me!!

Watch this space for the next installment!!
