August updates, welcomes and walks 
This month we have gained 5 new members and 7 new dogs. Welcome to you all. We’ve also had 6 new enquiries, so the group is steadily growing which is great!
We had a ‘get to know you’ social at the Cricket Inn, Dore and 5 of the new members turned up. Unfortunately the BBq was cancelled due to rain but we all managed to squeeze in around a big table inside.

The end of July walk was on a beautiful sunny day. We started at Shilito Woods car park, off the A621 Sheffield to Baslow road and crossed the open moors towards Owler Bar, the doubled back near Holmesfield and Fox lane through woodland. It was a great walk with lots of free running for the dogs except there were numerous gates which were locked! We had to lift the dogs over 2 of them as there were no stiles, including Cara an Estrela Mountain dog the size of a St Bernard! So that’s a black mark on our list of trialled walks.

August walk details as follows;

Date: Sunday 22nd August
Time: 10.30 am
Location: Holmesfield and Miilthorpe.
Start point: there is a small parking area at the junction of the B6051 at Millthorpe, near the Royal Oak pub. See the link below.
Walk details: some hills and valleys, across farmland and through preserved woodlands of South west Sheffield and North Derbyshire. This walk also covers parts of the Dronfield 2000 Rotary walks
Distance: 5 miles
Duration: approximaltey 2 hours
Refreshments: the Royal Oak at Holmesfield

We look forward to seeing you then. If you are going to be late or can’t make it please call or text me 07811031694 so that we are not waiting about too long. – Victoria

Doggy day and BBQ at the Beach 
Doggy day and BBQ at the Beach. Sunday 6th May 2010 (weather permitting)

Hopefully the sun will shine on us for this day out at the beach. We will be meeting at Fraisethorpe village or Beach on the A62 just south of Bridlington.
Its approximately a 2 hour drive and we will try to organise car share for those who want it.
Keep an eye on your emails for further info.
