we are looking for new dogs!
Due to the new assistant, Eva, joining our team this month we are looking for new dogs to join our walking round. Must be local (-ish), however well- (or badly-) behaved as basic training will be provided free of charge.
Lowest fee around - £10 for an hour and a half exercise in social environment + pick-up and delivery. We walk in many beautiful and safe parks around North and North-West London regularly changing the scene, so no walk is the same. Over the years we've been attracting huge crowds and many admirers - this is how fabulous our hounds are! You can check local and national press for the Good Boys outings - or, better - come and see it for yourself, whether you are still wondering or hesitating about your dog ever learning to behave like that!
We are a phone call away: 07957 228 269. Dima.

This is a video of a homeless man in Santa Barbara and his pets. They work State Street every week for donations. The animals are pretty well fed and are mellow. They are a family. The man who owns them rigged up a harness for his cat so she wouldn't have to walk so much (like the dog and himself). At some juncture the rat came along, and as no one wanted to eat anyone else, the rat started riding with the cat and, often, on the cat! The dog, will stand all day and let you talk to him and admire him for a few chin crutches. The Mayor of Santa Barbara filmed this clip and sent it out as a holiday card. A great video:

What is this dog dreaming about?
'Perfect Day'
Another date for your diary:
Dear Dima,
Our last fair was a great success and had 10,000 attendees. We thank Dima and the Good Boy Dog School for being a part of it and helping to make this possible.
The next 'Perfect Day' is on September 13th, 2009 and though it sounds far away, it's not. So we thought we should get in touch with you now
as we hope you would like to be participate again and see if there's any thoughts you may have for this year.
As you know A Perfect Day is a London street fair on Avenue Road in Swiss Cottage in aid of children with complex special needs in London
through the Swiss Cottage School. This facility has an abundance of awards for the work they do, but a lack of funding. This fair is put
together by volunteers in the community wanting to 'give back.'
We have done well in the past, but we need to generate more funds than ever, so our plans are growing with the kind of event this has
become. For instance, our plans are to have a professional stage where local bands and acts will play throughout the day and even
street artists. We are the also looking for ways to make the day even more memorable and exciting for the London community .
There's also sponsorship opportunities if you or anyone you may know would like to support us even more and this includes the opportunity to add advertising novelties or leaflets in the thousands of bags we will be giving away on the day. We will also be inviting local retailers to put a 'god parent's' or 'patron's' add in our brochure at 50 pounds or 100 pounds.
Many thanks,
Marsha Nuriya Lee, The Perfect Day
