I Went to a RSPCA dog show today at Moses Gate Country Park, there were so many dogs! As soon as I arrived I spotted very handsome Chewy from Day 135, he’s such a friendly boy! Whilst I was chatting to Chewy’s human mummy I spotted a gorgeous Bernese Mountain Dog, soooooo chuffed; I’ve wanted to see one since I started the blog! Truman is a very handsome and friendly boy, he wanted to make friends with all the other dogs there, and there were lots! Truman is a gentle giant: he shares his house with a house rabbit called Peppa.

I’m off work this weekend, I’m very pleased! I went to town today and I spotted 2 very lovely dogs who were helping their humans collect money for the Bolton NHS Charitable Fund. I went over to say hello and met very beautiful Baylee a Golden Retriever. Baylee is a Guide Dog and has been with her current human for 4 years. She’s a very friendly girl and was enjoying all of the fuss she was getting today! I got to give he lots of strokes and she leaned in for a cuddle. Baylee loves her human and licks her arm whenever they are bare!

I had a really busy day in work today so there was no time to go out at lunchtime to search for a dog. I also had to work late so I was planning to drive to the nearest park when I got back to Bolton but I was really lucky and as soon as I walked out of the train station I bumped into a very handsome German Shepherd. Sebastian is very friendly, I gave him lots of strokes and he lent into me for a cuddle! I’ve met Sebastian once before, he’s friends with Tank from day 117! Sebastian is very handsome and everyone that walked past commented on how gorgeous he is! When he was a puppy people stopped his humans all of the time to tell them how gorgeous he is, they even had a gorgeous count! I saw a picture of Sebastian as a puppy, very, very cute! Sebastian is also a clever boy, he can do some tricks and even showed me some!

Even though I had the day off today I didn’t manage to get out and look for a dog until late. I popped to the park and I spotted a very excited Cocker Spaniel chasing a ball in the field so I went over to say hello. Harry is very cute, he’s a ball of energy! At first I though he might be a cross with a King Charles Cavalier as he’s quite small, but he was bought as a Cocker Spaniel, his human daddy also thinks that he might be a cross though! Harry has 2 human brothers, they love him loads! Harry is very active and goes running with his human daddy, they’ll run 10 miles together.

The weather has been really rubbish again today! I hoped that by the time I got home there would be a break in the rain and I was in luck! I went to my parents house to pick up Ethan and I noticed one of their neighbours walking his very cute dog so I went over to meet him! At first I thought that Rufus was a Shih Tzu but he’s actually a very handsome Lhasa Apso. Rufus is a very friendly boy and he has lots of friends, the kids on the street love him! His humans put him on his lead in the front garden and all of the kids come to play with him and give him lots of fuss.

As soon as handsome Killian saw me he came bounding over to say hello, what a friendly boy! He loves meeting new people and getting lots of fuss, he’s a big softy!

I was at my parents house this afternoon when I spotted a cute dog walking past so I dashed out to say hello to lovely Noodles! Noodles is a rescue dog from Cyprus. The family were on holiday there and one of their friends found Noodles walking around the holiday park and so took her in to a rescue centre and the family decided that they would like to adopt her. They had to wait a couple of months before Noodles could come back to the UK whilst they sorted out her doggy passport but she got over here eventually and has now lived in the UK for 7 years. What a lovely happily ever after story!

I went out for a little walk at lunchtime but there weren’t any dogs about! When my husband got in from work I went out for a stroll to the park. I spotted a little Jack Russell having lots of fun playing with a ball and a Frisbee so I went over to meet her! Daisy is very cute and very friendly. She was with her human brother and his granddad; they love each other loads, she thinks the world of her human brother! Daisy once had a litter of 8 puppies, they didn’t keep any but they are still in touch with some of them which is nice! Daisy does a very cute thing to get herself tucked into bed at night! She throws her blankets in the air and then wraps herself up in them; she gets so covered up that you can’t see she’s there!

Emma and Geoff’s human mummy from day 182 told me about a dog show that she was judging today at Jollyes Pet Shop so I thought I would go along! As soon as I got there I spotted  a very handsome doggy which I first I thought might be a puppy Newfoundland so I went over to say hello! It turns out that gorgeous Bear is a Tibetan Mastiff, what an amazing dog! I don’t think I’ve ever met a Tibetan Mastiff before so I was really pleased to meet him today. Bear’s fur is so soft, he still has his puppy fur but his human mummy showed an area where his new fur is coming through.

I went out at lunchtime today but I didn’t spot any dogs so I went for a walk to the park this evening. I spotted a couple walking 3 dogs so I went over to say hello. They were all very nice but I thought that it would be too difficult to get a picture of all of them so I decided to make handsome Max a Border Collie my dog of the day. Max is 19 years old, I believe he’s now the oldest dog to appear on my blog so far! He’s a bit deaf now and he’s not as fast as he used to be but he’s a lovely boy! He cuddled into me for a nice stroke and cuddle! Max lives with Kiara a Patterdale Terrier and Pippa an American Bulldog, they’re both very excited dogs and they all get on really well!

They were quite a way ahead so I had to run a bit to catch them! Bonnie is a very beautiful and friendly girl, she cuddled into me straight away and talked to me the whole time, she’s such a cutie! Bonnie was being walked by her human dads girlfriend; she told me that her boyfriend loves Bonnie loads!

I’ve been really busy in work today so I didn’t get chance to find a dog at lunchtime, I decided to have a little walk down my parents street on my way to pick up Ethan. As soon as I got out of the car I saw gorgeous Bentley from Day 99, I got to have a good stroke and I took a little stroll with him and his human mummy Ruth. It seemed pretty quiet about, it took a while before we spotted a really cute Jack Russell called Borris. Borris is a friendly boy, he came to say hello straight away! It was tricky at first to get a photo as he kept coming up to me to say hello but eventually we managed to get a good shot! Borris is a rescue dog from Leigh Dogs and Cats Home.

I went to Moss Bank Park today for some dog spotting! It was just starting to rain so I was really pleased that I spotted 2 very excited looking dogs running in the field. Bracken and Piper are both very cute and very active! It was almost impossible to get a picture of Bracken as she would only stay still for a few moments at a time, as soon as I got the camera near her she would jump in the air and run off again! They are both very excited dogs, they both love running around, chasing the ball and jumping in the air! I couldn’t manage getting a picture of the two of them together I’m afraid (Bracken is in the background of Piper’s picture though, along with a giant inflatable gorilla!).

I was off today and so went to my parents in the afternoon. After I’d been there for a little while I spotted a really cute dog walking past so I ran out of the house to meet her. Fudge is a very cute and friendly girl! She loves licking people, she continuously licked my arm whilst I was stroking her. Every night she licks her human dad’s face, she gives him a ‘Fudge facial’. Fudge has had a bit of a hard time during her life. Her dog mum and 12 other puppy siblings were dumped outside the entrance of a Bleakholt Rescue Centre. Fudge was the smallest out of the puppies, believe it or not her dog brother is the size of a Border Collie! Fudge has also had to have a number of operations on her back legs but she’s still a happy girl!

Me and Ethan went for a little stroll around Middlebrook today. As usual we spent quite a lot of time in the toy houses outside the toy shop! I finally persuaded Ethan to leave the house and go to the pet shop. I’d seen a number of dogs go in and out whilst I was waiting for Ethan so I knew I wouldn’t struggle to find a dog! Whilst we were in the shop I saw a very beautiful Cocker Spaniel so  I went to meet her! Pippa is really cute, she’s such a friendly girl, I got a kiss almost straight away! Pippa lives with her dog brother Sam, he’s very handsome and she also has 3 human siblings, they love her very much!
