Busy bank holiday weekend

We had amazing weather this bank holiday weekend, so made the most of it by filling it with lots of walking, running, and even swimming!


As we've not had time to keep up with our couch to 5k runs recently, we made up for it by doing two this weekend. The first run of the weekend was along the river with Poppy AND Panda! Running with two dogs was a little harder, mainly because they got a little competitive with each other and made us run faster (go team Poppy & Jade)! Maybe by the end of the program we'll be sprinting with all four dogs!

On Sunday, we took Teddy to do the first run of week 3; the program is starting to get a bit harder now and we were all feeling shattered by the end of it. Whilst we were warming down, Teddy went all hippy on us with this daisy chain in his hair - manly look Ted!


























Today, we took Kitty on her first ever beach trip and she LOVED it! When we let her off of the lead, she followed Poppy and ran straight down the beach and plunged into the sea. I'm not sure what she expected but she looked very shocked at how wet she got and avoided the water after that!


Poppy and Teddy spent most of the day playing in the sea, and all of the dogs loved chasing the stones up and down the beach. It was such a nice day, and the perfect way to end the bank holiday weekend.










All the walking, running, and swimming made this bank holiday a very tiring weekend. So tiring in fact, that Matt couldn't even muster the energy to put some socks on, and had no choice other than to improvise with 'cockapoo slippers'. What a lazy boy (although I must admit, I'd take cockapoos to warm me up over slippers any day)!
