We have had the most beautiful day out in the Lakes with our Canicross crew!

Started with a lovely 6km loop around buttermere ☀️ We had the sun shining down on us, wet feet and a few camera issues but amazing route!

Then we headed to Keswick for a little walk around the lake waiting for the Pub to open 🍺

Then a fabulous meal at The Round 🍔

The dogs were as good as we could have asked! We will work through the footage and share later but for now here are some images 📸

⭐️ THE MERE SANDS MILE ⭐️

🏃‍♀️ Join Sporting Paws for a 1-mile run with your dog around the beautiful woodland trails at Mere Sands Wood.

This relaxed event is all about getting out with your dog, meeting other runners and enjoying the route together. Run at your own pace – whether you jog, run or take it steady.

🐕 All abilities welcome
🌿 Approx. 1 mile woodland route
👋 Friendly, social atmosphere

☕ After the run, feel free to stay for refreshments at the café and a chat with other runners or a social run

🚗 Please note: Car parking charges apply at the reserve.

An amazing session tonight despite the dying head torches we had a lovely time and chats 💓🐾

Good luck to all our amazing clients, friends, and fabulous pups heading to Crufts this weekend! 🐾✨

We’re missing out this year — Chillie has officially retired, and Poppie is busy chasing her canicross adventures instead 🏃‍♀️🐕💨

I can’t wait to be back on that famous green carpet one day with a brand-new set of paws by my side.

We’ve been attending Crufts for what feels like forever, so not being there definitely gives us the blues 💙

Who are you rooting for to take that Best in Show crown this year? 🏆🐶👇
