HOLIDAY DOGS Group Walk - Needham Lakes

Holiday Dogs Group Walk at Needham Lakes

Our bunch at Needham Lakes ready to get going

Don't let the "12 mile" part put you off, we actually
followed a different trail. Possible a bit too trigger
happy with the camera.

Just over a month later from it's Suffolk launch in Rendlesham Forest, Holiday Dogs Group Walk is out and about for the second time. Last Sunday the 31 strong group of like minded dog walkers took to the paths of Needham Lake for an enjoyable Sunday stroll.

There was a definite variety of canines that came to enjoy the sunshine (and contend with the numerous swans) as everyone took a calm and relaxing walk along the waters edge. From the likes of the big friendly Great Dane and the surprisingly aquatic Springer Spaniel all the way to the gorgeously fluffy Westies, all seemed to enjoy themselves. Not too hot and not too cold, in the words of Goldilocks, just right.

Undeniably cute.

As well as being an enjoyable day for everyone, it's particularly beneficial for those four legged ones, who always love to socialise with each other. It does them the world of good to meet and greet each other (in a way that only dogs can), so they can learn their people skills just like we do. Only slightly differently, because we're not dogs of course.

So keep an eye on the website here for any more events that might just tickle your fancy, and as always, we're open for suggestions of those lovely walking routes that you might know of.

If dog's had a calendar, i'm sure they'd have the next Big Walkies scribbled down somewhere as well.

 Below I have included some pictures I managed to take during the walk. If you see you or your dog and you'd like a copy of either the images below or the one above, drop me an e-mail at d.sherwood-clarke@hotmail.co.uk and i'll be able to supply you with a higher quality image. The same goes for anyone who'd like to know if I snapped their doggy and didn't appear on this blog. All for free of course, i'm nice like that.

In the words of a group member, "You just can't
keep a Springer out of water". Too true.

N'awwww.
