A TV Star came to visit

Its been very exciting here - Missy had a TV star come to visit.

The star in question? Bubble the dalmatian.



Bubble was on The One Show ( see HERE at 38 mins in) and she was joint winner in the Waggiest Tail  section.








Missy was completely unimpressed by the shows hosts, Chris Evans and Alex Jones - who obviously weren't the stars on this episode. Clever doggy! :)



We had the very great pleasure of Lottie and Bubble staying with us overnight on Friday / Sat morning.



Lottie is the owner of Pawsitively Pets - and she's the very kind lady who posts Missy's favourite treats to us - she provides all manner of pet supplies, all you need to do is request them and Lottie will do her best to supply them for you!
She posts to us in Essex, so distance is no problem :) 

See HERE for Lottie's  website and HERE for Lottie's blog

If you're in Sheffield and looking for a dog trainer, you couldn't do better than to go see Lottie. I had the pleasure of walking Bubble on my own whilst Lottie got ready, and she walked like a dream, no bouncing or pulling - and she watched me and obeyed all the commands I gave. When you think Bubble is a deaf dog, Lottie has done an amazing job!

I'd also like to tell you about Rain Rescue. Here, Lottie volunteers her time and helps with the training of the rescue dogs, improving their chances of being rehomed .  You can see Rain Rescue's site HERE.
I think you can also see why Lottie and Bubble are truly stars, not just celebrities! Three cheers for you girls :)

Missy was a good girl, she learned that if she looked at me straight after looking at Bubble, she got a treat. That was great fun and very easy to do!


Then when Bubble was upstairs asleep, she made friends with Auntie Lottie



and now, when Lottie and Bubble are on their way home to Sheffield, where's our darling Missy? Asleep, exhausted by entertaining the famous :)

  1. Nice Pat, only here on the mainland we can not see the video because it's unfortunately restricted to the UK.
    This are beautiful pictures and it's a good initiative of Lottie.
    Well done Missy, she's a really smart dog.

  5. O what a cutie! I love Dalmatians, we called them "rice-and-raisins-dogs" as children.
    P.S. Missy is cute too, in case she gets jealous...
