Bone Sweet Home - Lords of Dogtown

Just a quick update, due to everything increasing in price, I haven't Increased my prices yet but I shall no longer be offering a 2nd dog rate as going forward I would now charge 2 dogs at full payment of £30 each. Thank you for understanding.

Update regarding Licence

I received a call today from Licencing to say they have made an error regarding expiry.

My licence now expires 31st Dec 2026, not 2027.

I am unsure at this time, if I will continue after 2026 as I need to be more available for my mother and urge all owners to seek back up boarding going forward.

I found this and know it belongs to one of the fur parents, let me know if it's yours and would like it back...,☺️ xx

Mother, daughter day out, Memphis, Zukies & my first train trip to York 😁

It is with great sadness to learn that beautiful Millie who we have had such pleasure looking after on her holidays over the years, has made her way to rainbow bridge. We shall miss her adoring smile, cuddles & the much fun we shared together. Her love to swim, run, roll & play ball, who made so many fur friends, we shall all miss her greatly.

My thoughts & love to her wonderful owners, her mum & dad who have given Millie the most blessed and fabulous life, my heart goes out to you and thinking of you at this very sad time.

Millie, you have brought so many happy times to us all, you'll always have a special place in our hearts.

Whilst closed I have been busy decorating & doing maintenance on the home, making it a fresh space for our fur buddies... Gone are the walls with birds & butterflies & have chosen a sensible wallpaper 😂... But in truth I am sad to see it go 🥴.

My licence now expires 31st Dec 2026, not 2027.

It is unlikely I will continue after 2026 as I need to be more available for my mother and urge all owners to seek back up

Wow, whilst we started on a warm walk, the heat intensified and we had to turn back.
Stopped at the Bulls Head for shade and water bowls whilst we had a quick bite to eat and silently celebrated my father's birthday...Happy Birthday Dad 🥰...I'm sure you were up there laughing watching them all wallow & cooling off in the mud pools, all showered and happy spending the remainder of the afternoon cooling off in the pool. A huge thank you to my good friend & neighbour who came & helped today... Mason Mitchell & also the very nice lady at the Bulls Head for always making the pack feel welcome and for bringing them treats 🥰

Bruno,Arthur, Pedro & Murphy playing lots and tiring themselves out. Sleeping and recharging their batteries for our walks out in the rain 🌧️.

It's not a rant! It's correcting foolish assumptions!
The gang had another full day of fun, swimming, running and a good walk. Stopped at the Boathouse for water bowls before we continued, whilst there a woman had said to me she had previously seen me with the stroller and her opinion was that I baby the dogs and that they're not getting exercised in a stroller.
For anyone's information the dogs play all day, morning & night and if I have to use a stroller because they can't, or refuse to walk or have a medical issue, do not make assumptions!
The dogs get ample of exercise. I work 7 days, 7 nights and no days off, no time for myself as I give my entire life to these dogs, ensuring they play, exercise get enrichment and rest. Yes I use the stroller when it's necessary, this by no means is babying them but ensuring none of them get left behind at home and still get to enjoy our walks out together!.

My first walk without the stroller in a while, was nice to actually walk the dogs, all had a nice play and run with a good walk back down the canal. Freya, Murphy and Pip all enjoying a flirtatious time together, whilst Pedro gives me the best cuddles 🥰

Last day of Bruno & Arthur holiday, Arthur getting his last chew of the leads in, they're definitely going home tired. Murphy and Freya spend much time cuddling, Pup and Freya spend much time playing & at times looks like they're dancing, all getting along well and bonding in their new friendships.

Morning swim for Freya whilst the others jumped to try catch any falling balls. Trip to the gated Green for a safe off lead run before our walk down the canal.

The pack enjoying a Sunday morning at the Spa, morning post breakfast treats, then garden pool play. Freya obsessed with the pool, didn't want to come out and tried to get back in whilst wearing her robe, good job it's too tall 😀. Pip went in but wanted out after doing 1 lap, Murphy & Bruno & Arthur continuously attempting to jump up but when in, they want out and happier watching Freya swim round and chasing toys around garden. After they all had scrambled eggs for lunch an afternoon nap, now all playing with each other 🥰

Zukie & Memphis have gone to my mum's for a mini holiday...same home comforts enjoying pool life. Bruno, Murphy and Pip are tired out after garden play and a trip to Bruntwood fields chasing balls. I'm sure Bruno will be recharged as soon as his little brother Arthur arrives back 🥰

Such a lovely day, Gabby came with us on walk, after a good play at the park, refreshments and sausages for the gang at the Boathouse. This evening I treated the gang to a new 10 ft pool since Zukie just loves pool days.and it's definitely getting used on a daily basis, rain or shine 🤣.

Pedro arrived looking gorgeous, always has the best hugs, especially when tired. Bruno super excited to jump around pool trying to get in. Pip & Murphy never tire of ball play. Trip to the field and a walk to Tyldesley, pushing the wagon up that steep hill felt like a 2 hour workout at the gym 🤣

A day at my mum's where the dogs helped me put up another pool in her garden, they all keen to get in with my mum's dog and play splashing around whilst it filled. All have had their dinners which I packed and now snoozing before we go home 🥰

Brotherly love, Arthur and Bruno's protective arm. None wanted to go out in the rain today, they enjoyed playing tug and rummaging the toy box but hid in different beds after rounding them up to put their coats on, so waited for a dry spell before heading to the field. Arthur & Murphy chomping on the balls, Mia taking shelter in the stroller with no desire to be wet on the grass 🥰.

Brotherly love, Bruno's protective leg around Arthur. All enjoyed a morning playing but as soon as coats and leads were on, Bruno started snoring, Mia and Arthur hid in cuddle beds all making it obvious they didn't want to go in the rain, waited for a dry spell to get them to the field for a game of ball. Murphy and Arthur spent time chasing and chomping the balls, if Arthur's not chewing balls, he's chewing the leads. Bruno the giddy kipper keeps jumping and chomping my hand in attempt to get the ball and Mia climbing the stroller to seek shelter and hide under the blankets, looking forward to get back to her favourite spot on the back of the sofa, hidden by cushions 🥰.

Great day playing at Haigh Hall, balls, sun and cool coats out.

Bruno, Arthur , Pedro & Mia having fun at Bruntwood then a nap at Nonna's casa. 🥰

A great day spending quality time with Gabriella. Took the dogs to Chester for the day, saw some pretty sights and lunch shared with the gang.

My gorgeous boy 🥰❤️

Freya has joined us for her taster night, full of beans and loving pack play at the field. Bruno is with us for a much longer holiday and getting lots of pool exercise and play in, sometimes more tired than the new energy arriving so enjoys the wagon with Memphis whilst the others have an extended walk 🥰.
