Turns out that giving her the chew was not in fact enough to keep her out of the way while I cleaned the budgie cage out.

@MrKiplingwoof I was expecting sand but apparently not!

@ilkleymax Just to warn you some of them are filled with sand!

I’ve always wondered what these dummies were filled with. I know now that the answer is hundreds of thousands of teeny tiny pieces of stuff which are now scattered all over my house. Thanks Charlie.

@tlander93 I was expecting sand in this one, I guess it’s better this way!

@ilkleymax Ours was sand - lasted one walk and the rabbit fur on one side was mostly eaten!

@SpringerSaint We’ve got a clam one which does the same, she can undo the Velcro but we are working on a retrieve with it so food is a good incentive

@ilkleymax amzn.eu/d/03HF3JvP I use this one for work as if they want the food reward they have to bring it back - unless they can undo the zip and velcro 🤣

@moongazingwolf I wouldn’t mind but she’s had it a year and only decided to kill it today 🙄. We are coming to Claire for a session on Thursday, maybe she can talk some sense into her!

@ShepsVodkaParty Congratulations, she’s a very lucky girl to have you as a mum x

@mooramana It took us ages to make him yesterday!! When I left last night he was in pieces and had no face 😂😂. Gilbert checked his pockets for snacks, Agnes was terrified of him!

@ilkleymax You have no idea how accurate that picture of the missing farm hand is! All that’s missing is a mobile phone 😂😂😂

More scenes from scentwork. Featuring silliness with friends and the missing farmhand who was of course on the toilet!

@Tallulah30875 She’s adolescent and we know it! Shes greyhound/deerhound/wheaten terrier which is quite a mix!

@ilkleymax 😆 She’s gorgeous too tho, looks like my previous Lurcher, Mist 😍

Before all the farmyard fun I managed some cuddle time with my favourite long dog, the legend that is Gilbert ❤️

@Tallulah30875 He was doing some excellent posing though Agnes tried to get in on the act 🙄

@moongazingwolf It was so good! The emphasis was on the dogs just having fun searching and with plenty of finds they all loved it.

Today’s scentwork was different. The dogs had to find “escaped sheep” and puzzle clues while the humans had to solve puzzles to end up finding the missing farmhand. Great fun & lots of laughs

@MrKiplingwoof Yep!! We did make hard work of a couple of the puzzles 🙄

@ilkleymax I bet all the Pups were having a good laugh at the bipeds trying to solve puzzles 😂

Our biggest fundraiser, Dog Day, is back for 2026! Sun 6th Sep at the Himalayan Gardens near Ripon. We’ve got some fab stuff planned - Save the date!!!!

Charlie had a lovely time at the #PawsAboard event for @StTeresas this morning. She’s very happy with her goodie bag! A lovely event in a very good cause

Starting the day with a bit of toy destruction, as you do. We are off to support @StTeresas at their #PawsAboard event today, flying the flag for @LdtNorthYorks

@mooramana I’m not entirely sure! She didn’t come to parkrun, had her normal walk and a bit of training then that happened!

@ilkleymax You’ve broken her? What have you done🙈😂

Apparently someone’s had an exhausting day
