Dog owners I need your help πŸ™ . . This little f Dog owners I need your help πŸ™
.
.
This little furry teddy bear has been getting more and more aggressive to other dogs of late. He's always had issues with dogs with pointy ears after being bitten by a pointy eared border collar at the beach when he was about 6 months old. But that has been totally manageable and I know to be on my guard if I see some pointy ears approaching us. 
.
.
He then started to get a bit funny with some dogs if he was on the lead and they were off lead. But again manageable. I can usually work out whether he's gonna get narky or not. 
.
.
The last couple of days however he's had beef with two different dogs that did absolutely nothing to him. The first time both dogs were off lead and there was no  one else around other than me and the other dog owner. The other dog looked totally up for a play but Baxter got the right agg and turned - snarling, teeth flashing, grabbing for the back of the neck.
.
.
A similar thing happened this morning, this time both dogs on lead but it was a golden labrador for crying out loud, like gentle as anything. And again Baxter got really nasty - so embarrassing.
.
.
His balls are long gone, so it can't be that. Is it just an age thing, will he grow out of it, or is this something I need to train out of him and if so how the fuck!?!? 
.
.
It's been mentioned that he could be doing it to other male dogs who still have their balls. The thing is I can spot pointy ears, but I deffo can't get visuals on the balls in time πŸ™ˆ Help! #dogowners
Morning run walk with the doggo to test whether my Morning run walk with the doggo to test whether my injury can take it 😎
.
.
Turns out it can. Turns out gentle movement is exactly what it needs. Like a twat I went too hard on the strength sesh last week and did something to my back. I suspect nerve related cos it's spread to my knee and leg too. But I've been super sensible and doing the best 3 recovery methods I can think of - resting, stretching and ginning πŸ˜‰πŸΈ
.
.
The dogs happy, cos me walking in the trails means he gets to twat about in the woods for longer - nearly got that rabbit bud #nexttimegadget And I'm happy cos well you know how much I love a woodland 🌲🌳🌴
.
.
Now to trot home, do the @corpaofitness week 4 press up challenge (gently and mindfully obvs) and then to stretch like I've never stretched before. All before the rest of my household have even surfaced #likeaboss
Wearing a skirt the colour of the sky and a massiv Wearing a skirt the colour of the sky and a massive smile on my face cos guess what.... there's just 1 week of home schooling left and it's FRIDAY!!!!!!!!
.
.
We have so got this my luverlies. Just 5 more days, 5 teeny tiny days, and then we're free. I mean OK so there's not much we can do with this freedom, but there's a hell of a lot of stuff we can enjoy, like.......
.
1. An empty(ier) laundry basket.
2. A house that stays clean for more than an hour.
3. An uninterrupted cuppa.
4. Work uninterrupted, wherever and whenever we want.
5. Moan free walks.
6. Not having to listen to sweary outbursts about Call Of Duty.
7. A full fridge.
8. Time, so much time, to just think, about anything!
9. No more guilt about how much time the kids are on screens.
10. Our own schedule.
.
.
Small things I know, but omg I have missed these small things. I'm sure there's a tonne of others, so please share with me what you're looking forward to as well. 
.
.
At the moment I'm just sat here debating whether 4pm is too early for Friday drinks.... it's the sunshine, it does that to ya doesn't it. But as @mrsgifletcher mentioned in her post earlier, office drinks would deffo be going down on a Friday afternoon, so I'm thinking that should deffo be a thing in the home office. Bit weird me sat on my tod drinking a pornstar martini though do ya think? #happyfridayeveryone
Hope comes in many different disguises and I think Hope comes in many different disguises and I think I found a tonne of them on my walk this morning 🌟
.
.
At the risk of sounding like the soppiest wanker on the planet here's some of the things I'm loving today that have filled me with the kind of #hope that only Spring can manage to muster up.
.
1. Fluffy apricot clouds.
2. Undone coats.
3. Daylight before 7am.
4. Patches of snowdrops.
5. Dawn chorus.
6. Deer in a field.
7. Golden sunrise glow bouncing off trees.
8. Catkins.
9. Splashes of yellow flowers on gorse.
10. Little green shoots.
.
.
I haven't felt this positive in such a long time and I honestly felt like I was viewing the world with fresh eyes again. It's fucking spectacular out there today and nothing really has changed other than the hope being offered and the way I'm choosing to view it.
.
.
Of course there are still the neggy people out there - I remarked to a fellow dog owner about how nice it is that the mornings are so light and his response.... "yeah until the clocks go back next month" πŸ™„ Nice try mate, but ain't no one raining on this girl's parade today no siree. 
.
.
Hoping my #positivity radiates out to you - I've got plenty to share out today 😁😍
