Luna's Pawdcast

I'd like to take a moment of your time this morning to talk with you about freedom. Now, I'm not just talking about some off-lead fun, playing in the park and checking your pee-mail whenever you want. I'm talking about real freedom.

When the human is teaching me something new, she helps me to focus on what she DOES want me to do and tries really hard not to get grumpy when I forget everything she has taught me. Now, let's not worry about whether I have got the hang of not jumping up at my favourite humans and keeping all four paws on the floor (I haven't) and just worry about how she tries to teach me what I should be doing. That's the secret, right there.

I have five cues for you and I urge you to remember these over the coming weeks. I know you're going to be tested and I also know that these things will help you: Enjoy a walk & remember to run & play every day Don't bite when a growl will do Be quick to forgive Follow your instincts Love unconditionally

Let's remember our priorities. Be Brave: Stand up for yourself or someone else. Be Kind: First and foremost, be kind to yourself. Then, compliment someone else. Be A Friend: Someone you engage with today will appreciate a kind or word or a smile. Be Unapologetically YOU: You're perfectly imperfect just as you are so hold your head up high. You never know who you're inspiring and encouraging simply by being true to yourself. So #TeamLuna, this is your task for today. Tick off your priority list. Then, take a moment later on to see how you feel. I can guarantee that you'll feel fabulous!

Being present is one of the things us hounds excel at. We are 100% in the moment. Have you noticed how happy we are?
