More Catch Up!

The dogs have it easy!

Yes, it's been pretty challenging but we are still here and ready to please! With some staff shuffling and lots of sweating, cycling and walking; we are still the hard working Bruff's Bark!

So we'll start off easy with some snaps of beautiful and lovable members!
We know some of them don't always see the camera but it doesn't mean we care for them any less - some are a bit camera shy! They come in small, big, young and old!

Left to Right: Midget, Floyd & Ruby, Lula, Elmo, Yogi, Harley, Laika and Bruno

Next up, we have clips of our Bruff's Bark Band members in action and working hard or taking easy as you'll see! Starring: Ruby, Floyd & Red and Lula!

Finally we'll round it off with some fun loving pugs: Frank and Rudi!

My photo!

Time for a Breather!

It's been quite hectic over the past few weeks and we have lots of things to tell and show!

We'll start off with a big thank you to Zorona and Hope who have been helping out with some of our members for the past few months, they have been great help and will be missed especially by the pugs, Winston and Rudi!

"Hey everyone!

We worked at Bruff's Bark over the past summer. We really enjoyed ourselves and loved getting to know both the staff and all the dogs. We especially miss the pugs who we regularly spent time with, Rudi and Winston. For us, it was the ideal summer job; getting to spend time outside in the sun with animals we loved. A big thanks to Hilary for taking us under her wing! We're back at university continuing our studies now but we hope to back in the future.

Lots of love,

Zorona and Hope"

Next up we've got a few new faces to let you meet!

First up, is a 4 year old boxer called Roxy! She may seem a big girl but she's gentle and loves to play!

Next up is this handsome boy, Harley, he's a 3 month Labrador/Spaniel Cross. He may be new to this world but he's a little genius and has been breezing through training.

Thirdly, we have another young one, this time it's Lula. This golden girl is small at the moment but knows how to have fun and has already made a great friendship with one of our bigger and fluffier members, Chloe!

We've had another visitor to Hotel Bruff, this time it's was Rudi for the night!

Surprise photo!

He may be a lot smaller compared to Girls but this wee man knows how to get some attention and has even ended up getting his own selfie!

With a bit of help!

We are getting there! We couldn't leave without a few videos of members in action!

So here's Winston, Frank, Floyd, Harley, Maggie, Midget, Sammy and Red!

And last but not least, we have some photos of Band Members showing off their good side!

Cheeky little Kari and happy face Ruby

Skye - model material!

Puppy Power!

We have a big selection of pups in the Bruff's Bark Band so it's time to show some of them off in the style they all love: having fun!

We'll start off with a little man with loads of energy and a face to make you awe, here's Frank in his new career path as security!

Don't start trouble with this one!

Next up, some action with Midget and Alfie - still young and proud - then big boy Buster with Frank and Bradley - who could be confused for a little lamb!

Finally we've had another one staying at Hotel Bruff, this time it's Rudi! He's been with us since he allowed out the house and he's still the happy man we've always known!

Posing with Skye

But other than just chilling with the Girls, he's also been meeting new friends so here's a new face of the Band it's Travis, he maybe be young but he's becoming friends with all and doing amazingly at Training!

These two were inseparable!

Finally when it comes to the end of the play, everyone needs a good nap and Rudi is no exception to the rule, he tries to fight sleep but the wee man enjoys it's a bit too much.

It's a Pug's Life!

We have another Pug - or as we have recently learned they are known as the Dutch Mastiff! - and he's a little young pup of 4 months!

Meet Frank!

This little man isn't afraid of anything or anyone and has happily made himself apart of the bigger dogs of the Bruff's Bark Band! We now have 5 Pugs - Winston, Rudi, Bertie, Basie and Frank - each with a different personality but full of energy and joy!

Pugs have been well known throughout history, the breed originating for China but becoming a well sought after dog by royalty in Europe in the 16th Century onwards.


Enough Pug business - for now - we have had some more sleepovers recently, starting with Cara, who is with Rhu and Skye at the moment. So she has been meeting some new doggy friends whilst on her little holiday from home.

So here is her new pals: Hugo, Maggie, Midget and Sophie.

And after some playing -  like rest of the dogs who stay over - Cara is ready for a good nap! 

Zzzzzzz....

But with all of the dogs in Bruff's Bark, we do love them and sometimes they show us affection back.

Kisses!

And finally here's another stay over, this time it's Oscar, who join Thumper for the night!

Hello!

This is my bed right?

 And sometimes even the dogs have one of those mornings where they don't want to wake up!

This is Playtime!

The Bruff's Bark Band members are a very excitable bunch and can play rough but as you'll see it's all safe. We wouldn't let anything spoil a good run around with friends.

We've got a few clips together, starting with Bertie and Sophie - she's really coming out and enjoying every moment of it!
Then we have the Big Sisters: Tia and Rizzo joined by Midget and Maggie, showing size and age doesn't matter.
Finally, it's boy vs. girl, Bertie and Maggie, it's a test of endurance but full of joy!

We make sure that when our dogs play that they are safe and it's never let out of control. Playing should be a big part of a dog's life as it provides socialisation and exercise so we try to make sure all our dogs have a good time as much as possible - and here's the results!

Happiness!

Though a whole week of it can be a bit too much!

Don't want to get out of bed, mum.

Some Fun with the Band Members!

Recently we've had some lovely weather and we thought we'd make the most of it with the Bruff's Bark Band.

So here's: Rhu, Skye, Winston, Cara, Rudi, Merlin, Daphne, Alfie and Maggie all making the best of the sun and having some fun!

And here's two friends who haven't seen each other in a while but still know how to play, here's Ruby and Floyd!

Next up, here's a little girl who just enjoys a good walk with Hilary, it's Midget!

And finally to round everything off, here's Yogi during his little stay over with Rhu and Skye.

Getting cozy next to the fire.

Bone, Check! Toy, Check! Sleepy Time, Zzzzz...

Puppy Training!

We've got a few videos to show you all of our most recent training session, and you get to see some of the new Bruff's Bark Band members in action!

We'll start with two new faces, Sophie and Midget! These two have both just started recently but are already showing off their skills.

Next up, we have a good round up of little dogs, here's Poppy - Jug -, Poppy - Miniature Poodle -, Elle and Maggie!

This lot have been before and are showing off a bit!

Finally, we have a little clip of what happens when boys will be boys after having fun and training, here's Baloo and Otto!
