Adventures of Two Welsh Border Collies.

  • Private Rented Fields are the Future

    Hi Everyone, I wanted to share the fun that is private rented fields for the dogs to play with.  In Wrexham we are spoilt for choice but the one we go to a lot is Ryecroft Meadow in Gresford.  It is where we had Murphy’s birthday party last year and we are also planning for…

  • Bodnant Gardens – Perfect Place to Show your Tongue

    Bodnant Gardens is a stunning outdoor space located in North Wales which expands to over 80 Acres, and it was a favourite destination of Freddy.  It is becoming one of Murphy and Max favourite places to visit. The gardens are managed by the National Trust, and they allow dogs to visit the gardens.  You will…

  • Fun Agility

    Fun Agility

    Max goes to Fun agility on a Friday evening. The reason that it is called Fun Agility is that there is no pressure as we aren’t going to go into competitions. The sessions are run by Neil from The Craft Canine and this is the same person who does 1:1 training with Max. As you…

  • Welcome from Murphy and Max

    Welcome from Murphy and Max

    It has been a while since the last post on this website. Freddy passed away in 2019. I joined the family shortly afterwards and Max just over a year later. These were very early days and it was during lockdown, but we will go back into the archives and share some of the adventures that…

  • Attingham a Dog Friendly Place

    Attingham a Dog Friendly Place

  • Days out exploring Bodnant Gardens

    Days out exploring Bodnant Gardens

    As you might have guessed by now I love the days when I get to go out and explore.  Living in Wales there is a lot of places to choose from, but some of the places only allow dogs in the off season. Here I am waiting outside the tea rooms at Bodnant Gardens as…

  • Winter drive round Snowdonia National Park

    I don’t know about you, but when the weather is nice (not raining heavy) I like to take my humans out for a run.  It varies from Beach, Country Park or if they are lucky an Ice Cream Farm.  Last weekend it was cold, but there were clear skies so after a filling breakfast we…

  • Christmas for a dog

    Today is the 1st of December, which means it is the day to start with the Advent Calendar.  Now you might be thinking they are mostly made of Chocolate so no use for dogs.  Well this year I am in luck, I have been given an Advent Calendar for Dogs, and I know it is…
