This site is dedicated to those of you who brave the weather and enjoy the great outdoors with your faithful four-legged companion. Apart from the posters, all the photos have been taken 'out and about' on our walks.
You'll find lots of natural images of dogs enjoying the countryside, happy to be rolling in the grass, drinking from muddy puddles, getting mucky and living a rich life.
The seven canine groups are represented with information and photos of different breeds we've met on our morning and evening walks. Since one of ours is a Golden Retriever, there's also a special page on them and our experience when she was a puppy.
If you're considering a second one (we also have a black labrador-cross), here are some useful pointers to make the transition for both animals smooth.
There's advice on choosing pet-friendly holidays as well as taking your animal abroad. What are the requirements for the pet passport and what should you look out for if you travel to Europe?
We take a look at what products we've found useful focussing on books, toys, training aids and cleaning products.
What you wear is also important and I'm not necessarily talking high fashion here. Keeping warm and dry is essential if you're going to enjoy those walks.
So, browse through the pages, enjoy the photos, pick up some tips and above all, keep getting out and about with your dog!
Here's the list of what's on each page:
