I’ve worked a really long day today! I didn’t get out of work until 9.30! I knew it would be a late one so I wanted to make sure I found a dog early on; unfortunately I had no luck at lunchtime. I headed out again at 5pm and my colleague spotted a dog across the road so I ran after them. I was very relieved to meet lovely Bella! Bella is a shy girl but I did manage to give her a little stroke, her humans said I was honoured! Bella goes with her humans everywhere, they only go on holiday to places that take dogs! Bella has a special dog car seat, how cool is that!

I’ve met up with some friends tonight after work, it was great to catch up with some of the former IWM North crew! I really wanted to find a dog early on today, I was worried I’d struggle in the evening so I went for a walk when I got to Manchester this morning but no joy! I went out at lunchtime but again no dogs! Fortunately pretty much as soon as I left work this evening I bumped into a beautiful and excited puppy!

Lily is a lovely friendly girl, I think she’s excited to see everyone! Lily was a good girl and sat for her photo, she’s such a cutie. Look at those lovely ears, so gorgeous. Lily likes to chew her lead, she’s even managed to tangle it up!

I went for a little walk at lunchtime and I was mega happy when I bumped into amazing Dolly and Betty, two gorgeous Bull Dogs. Dolly and Betty are super friendly, I gave them lots of fuss! Betty is especially friendly she came sat on my knee and I gave her some big cuddles; she loves hugs! Dolly and Betty are sisters, they are from a litter of 5 but they were best friends with each other. When their humans went to see them they couldn’t separate them so they decided they had to take them both home with them! They’re such a cute pair, I’m glad they got to stay together! Dolly and Betty’s humans own a café called Betty and Dolly’s Sandwich Bar and Tea Room, it’s a dog friendly café so the girls get to go to work with their humans. Lots of dogs go into the café and they take a photo of each one that visits and put it up on the wall, what a great idea! They’ve had Bull Dog parties at the café, I hope I can go to the next one! Dolly and Betty are like a pair of celebrities, loads of people stopped to stroke them and a couple took their photo! It takes a while for them to walk anywhere as they have to stop so often for people to stoke them!

Beautiful Betty and Dolly!

I’ve been really lucky again today and didn’t have to go on a search for a dog! I was in work when Gemma my colleague spotted a lovely dog outside so I went out to say hello. Leo is a very friendly and handsome boy, he came over for a cuddle and lots of strokes, he likes having attention. Leo is on his holidays, he lives in Italy which is his country of birth. They had to drive all the way to Manchester from Italy as Leo can’t fly! Leo is a rescue dog from an Italian rescue centre. He was rescued 4 years ago, but he’d been in the rescue centre for 5 years at that point; I’m so pleased that he’s found his forever home. Leo likes to talk and has little chats with his human sister! It was difficult to get Leo to keep still for a photo, he kept coming over to me for more strokes!

I was in work today at the reception desk when my colleague spotted a Black Pug outside; thanks Rachel! I ran up 4 flights of stairs to get my camera and headed outside. When I got outside Alan the pug had a little crowd round him with lots of people giving him a fuss; who can blame them he’s gorgeous. Alan is a really friendly boy and has lots of pizazz, look at that snazzy red jumper! Alan’s human really wanted to have a dog called Alan so when she went to visit the littler of puppies she said to Alan “are you Alan” and he tilted his head as if to say “yes I am”, she knew he was the one! Alan loves his human mummy and doesn’t like to be apart from her, fortunately she works from home. Alan is a clever boy and can do some tricks, he can play dead!

We have family visiting this weekend so we decided to take them to the excellent IWM North today as they’ve never been! We had a great visit and decided to take a stroll over the bridge to have a little look round Media City. When we got to the bridge I spotted a very tall and handsome dog coming towards us so I went over the say hello. Monty is a very tall German Shorthaired Pointer, he was the biggest in his litter! He’s a friendly boy and I got to give him a good stroke; I even got a wet nose kiss! Monty had to have an operation last Friday on two of his cruciate ligaments. Fortunately it was keyhole surgery so he didn’t have a massive scar. He’s doing really well considering he’d only just had his operation and could walk round pretty normally; lovely boy! Fortunately Monty’s humans got him insured, so far he’s had to have £11,500 worth of treatment, fingers crossed its all ok now!
