Happy 3rd Birthday Rudi!!

Here is our wee man now becoming a bigger wee man!! Happy Birthday to the Original Rude Boy. Rhu and Skye sends you loads of licks .xxx

All the snuggles in the world.

Snuggles and cuddles.

The Pug and the Pup!

So we've been out having fun with the new pup Noah, and he's been making a whole lot of new friends, first one being one of our pugs, Rudi!

Next he's made best friends with someone who's almost the same size as him - for now! - Digger! 

Happy Boys!

And here's them going out for a big play together and getting some tasty treats!

October Sun!

Yes, we've been amazed that there is still sun in October! We are always prepared for the onslaught of windy and rainy days come this part of the year but it's still nice - oh what a delight - though getting chillier!

So let's start of with a video of two boys in the woods, Rudi and Yogi, have a good walk and getting treats!

Next up we have a new member of the Bruff's Bark Band. He only 14 weeks old; full of joy, fun and excited to see the big world, here's Noah on his first big walk with the boring Girls, Rhu and Skye!

We are Still Here!

Yes, apologies for the lack of recent posts, we are working hard with all our dogs and dealing with paper work!

But we've got a lot to share though! So lets start with some pictures of the Band Members in action!

Finally we've had Hotel Bruff has been busy, we've had big boy Buster for the past two weeks and a special night for Rudi with Thumper! So let's start off with Buster with the Girls!

Happy Time!

Sleepy Time.

Next up is Rudi and his night with Thumper!

Mid afternoon nap time for the pug.

And here's the video you would have been waiting for, Rudi saying hello to Thumper!

So we hope that keeps you all busy for now, we'll make sure to get back on to our regular schedule!

Red eagerly awaiting more updates!

Hotel Bruff

Yes, it looks like doors are opening and closing often at Hotel Bruff with the start of summer, so let's see who has been recently!

We start off with a 2 week visit from Cara! As she's grown up with the Girls, she's right at home at Hotel Bruff.

Nap Time!

Watching passersby from the window!

Next up we have a big boy who hasn't been for a while but it more than welcome, it's Oscar! He's been staying for the past few days and catching up with everyone.

He has been greatly missed by the Girls but he knows how to have fun, so here is some clips of him in action, including some fun in the sun with Rudi!

But after all the fun and playing it's time for a well deserved nap and Oscar likes his naps, even if they are short!

He's a good doorstop as well! 

Never made it to bed.

Ssshhh, don't wake him up!

We've emptied up for now, but there are more guests round the corner!

In other news, Bruff's Bark has been enjoying the recent increase in Sun - even getting a bit of a tan/burnt - but it's important to remember that not all dogs like the heat!

Rudi likes the heat but can't last long in it!

Kari is loving the weather!

 Finally, Elmo is just happy to go back to his bed after his walk whatever the weather!

A Birthday Boy!

We can't believe how fast time has passed since we were celebrating his first birthday and now we have just celebrated Rudi's second birthday and here's some photos from the day!

He's grown up and started drinking!

One can isn't enough to celebrate a birthday!

But there is one thing that all birthday boys love and that's Ice Cream!

Aside from the celebrations, we have a new member for yous to meet! Here's Sorcha, a lovely red labrador!

And here is Sorcha meeting and playing with Floyd and Frank!

And after all the fun in the sun, Floyd is absolutely knackered - look at that tongue!

Bark Life!

The sun is finally starting to show it's face more and it's getting a little bit warmer so we are finally able to have more fun with the dogs! Though don't let those two above say otherwise!

So let's start off with someones new haircut and it's quite a chop!

It's Elmo!

And someone else is getting into modelling career!

Oscar really liked the hat, honest!

Next up it's our little Pugstar and he's at it again getting into a magazine this time! In this month's Your Dog, it's Rudi!

Next we had a little visitor for the day at Hotel Bruff and as you'll see you can tell she enjoyed it! 

Juno getting able to sit on the manager's knees!

Bonding with Skye!

Finally for some action with little, large and in between. Here's Juno, Baloo and Rocky out for a play together! She shows no fear in the face of these two boys!

Santa's Little Helper!

Here's our little TV star Rudi on his visit to Santa, doesn't he look so happy!

We love to see our furry friends so keep sending in photos and videos to share!


Also we'd like to share the news that we are sold out of all the Bruff's Bark Calendar 2015, told you they would go quick!

Winter is Coming...

Yes it seems the bitter and cold weather has started and we have already started putting on the layers to deal with it but it doesn't mean we can't have a bit of fun as well!

We'll start off with a video of some fun outside and inside!
Starring Maggie & Ayla and Rudi, Rhu & Skye

There has also been a few guests appearing at Hotel Bruff, like Rudi and Buster!

All wrapped up! 

 Caught scheming it seems!

They've got their bed for the night!

"Skye come play with me!"

Also we'll like to keep you up to date on the calendars, they should be here by this weekend! Looks like we aren't the only one ordering loads of calendars!

A Surprise Visit!

Hotel Bruff had another guest this week from a well missed 'little' bulldog, Oscar! The wee man is all grown up now and is still the same funny and playful dog as he was when he first joined Bruff's Bark. So let's get into the action!

We'll start off with him meeting Maggie for the first time and what a blast they had, though Oscar still hasn't ran out of steam yet!

He goes on to pester Skye for a bit to get someone to play with him.

The result:

Then finally he decides to help out around the house, one chore he loves is opening the mail and giving a good read before deciding it's for the bin.

And after a few days of excitement when Oscar finally gets home he then decides it's sleepy time.

In other news, we mentioned it a year ago about having a celebrity dog in our ranks and he has now moved on from the newspapers to the TV!
Yes we are talking about Rudi, he was again at the Animal Blessing service at Greyfriars Kirk this year and got some screen time!

Rudi checking that they got his best side!

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
