Woodland Walk in Pictures

Hello all, as promised we thought we'd post the photo's of our walk on Monday, this is the walk that's closest to home so we get to do it twice a day sometimes. Hope there aren't too many photo's, we didn't know which to leave out! 
This is the entrance - come on follow us...
There are so many lanes leading off here, we don't know which way to go...
...okay, down to the old fossil then turn left (and I don't mean the human!)
...Louis stopped on the look out rock to check out the area...
me...I'm headed for the big field, this grass tastes yummy...
...over this little wooden bridge...
...past the horses...see there is a little foal there...aaahhh....
...time for a quick game of tag...
and hide and seek...can you see me...I am in there (look on the right)
...before getting down to what we do best...furtling...
...hope you enjoyed coming on our walk with us...
...good bye woods...see you tomorrow...
Hope you enjoyed the walk all, have a great day. There is one last favour if any of you are on Facebook. Our friend Ralphy you may remember entered a modelling competition, well he was chosen for the final 10 out of 400 so thank you so much to those who voted. The voting began again this week until Sunday to pick the top 3 so if anyone would vote again I know Ralphy and his Mum would so appreciate it, this is his campaign video, spot Louis sat on the wall! Ralphy's video link  this is the link to voteRalphys Voting Link

Introduction

Hello Everyone,

Just to introduce ourselves, we are Dexter and Louis, 2 Miniature Schnauzers living in the West Country. Here we are rooting about in the woods this week just so you know what we look like:

This is the best part of our day when we get to explore - there are so many smells to investigate we don't know whre to start first! This land is part of the Woodland Trust 5 minutes from where we live - there are also some great fields but the farmer had dared to put a lot of cows in there this week so we're avoiding there at the moment - those cows can run pretty fast if they decide to chase you!
So, what else do we do? Well, we have a big job guarding our home of course and we take this very seriously. One of us is always on the look out for callers and then our job is to bark as loudly as we can - turning in circles at the same time is optional but most favoured by Dexter.
We go to something called 'dog training' where we get to meet loads of other dogs and do various things to keep our humans happy. Sometimes we just have to sit still for one minute in a line and we get loads of praise and a treat - simples!
That's Louis sat right in the middle
 We're the only two Mini's at training at the moment, although there are a couple of Pupsters attending puppy parties who may be joining us - it would be good to have someone to pass the knowledge on to! Well, we'll leave it there for this first post, having told you a bit about ourselves, we'll be back with more Schnauzer Days tales - xxx
