This gorgeous little chap is Gus…Reggie has recently been promoted to big brother ❤️🐶

Although Gus hasn't had all his vaccinations yet, that hasn't stopped him joining in the adventures.

Jess recently visited Oakthorpe Colliery with a friend, a walk Murphy enjoyed back in April when the bluebells were in bloom🪻

Here's what stood out from Jess's visit:

🐾 Plenty of sniffing opportunities
🌳 Multiple route options
🚶 Mostly path-based walking
👶 Stroller and child friendly
💧 Water spots for adventurous paws

Thank you Jess Roberts, Reggie and Gus for letting us share your Oakthorpe adventure with The Pack ❤️

## Murphy's Verdict
*Reviewed by Murphy, Cavapoo and chief sniff tester at Murphy & Me — The Dog Edit*
> "Multiple routes means multiple opportunities for new sniffs. The bluebells in April were *chef's kiss* and those water spots? Perfect for a cheeky splash when Mum's not looking. Big paws to fill for little Gus, but he's doing brilliantly. Would definitely sniff again. 🐾"
