    I had a dog walking business for about 10 years so I got to meet a lot of dogs, if we were out walking as a pack other dogs would try and join in.   I’m endlessly fascinated by dogs and couldn’t imagine life without them ☺️

    Beautiful dogs on the previous page. I had Border Collies for years but now not in a position to have a dog.

    I absolutely loved walking border collies when I had my dog walking business @Busy-Lizzie, absolutely fantastic dogs, definitely in my top 5 breeds 😀

    Ahh he’s so handsome, yes I bet you miss him a lot, that’s the awful thing about being a dog lover …. having your heart broken 💔

    What a beautiful boy he was, @Busy-Lizzie. "Tigger" is a perfect collie name, too!

    @CatDouch you also need to clear the stones from around your roses.  Stones/pebbles/cobbles in summer will absorb and hold onto the heat and damage/potentially kill your roses.

    Often we are told to mulch to keep the moisture in, with stones being one of the suggestions.  Do you have any backing for your statement.
