Hazey, I join you in your jaunts from the central desert of Arizona. I am so glad that you have come to the time in your life in which you have welcomed a dog into your life. Better late than never. For anyone who lives too much in their own head, doubts, fears, welcoming a dog into one's heart is is accepting that things can be better. As you said, they bring one hope. The love, trust and protective care you give to Nimbus, will be returned to you in even more instinting abundance. The solid training you are giving him now in his formative pùppyhood will allow him to become a dog of dignity. He will learn the lessons of the trail. He will always greèt you with joy, he will never say a hurtful thing. When you do faulter, as we all do, on your life journey, he will be a source of comfort, strength and compassion. Dogs have their own pathways to understanding other than the gift of speech; they communicate on a higher level. I believe your Nims will be one of the best decisions you ever made! Aĺl you have to do is generously open wide the gates of your heart and he will prance joyously right in. I am obviously SO HAPPY for you.
Dude I’m up in the highlands for a month working , but grinding out them hills on a weekend due to your insp … you helped me shift from the dark side to impacting my career for a tremendous step in a positive direction I’ve not been capable of for years …..Gracias you can’t imagine the scale of the impact your channel can have on folk … thanks man
I'm on my own with my dog, he's a collie dalmation at 11 years of age. We have been through relationship breakups, bailiffs, my Dad passing and my own ongoing mental health gymnastics. He knows what i'm thinking before I do on most days. If i'm depressed or anxious, he is anxious too. So i work on myself to be less depressed, and in turn I see a positive difference in him, which motivates me to be better. It's a cyclical dance, and you live it every day. He is my best friend, and my worst enemy. I have tried to distance my connection to him because I know ultimately he will leave when it's his time, and I will be left holding the lead with nothing to attach it to. He is my mirror, and I think I love him more than people because I can talk to him in the small hours and he listens, he doesn't judge. Unfathomable love these creatures provide, and when I wake up every morning and hear his paws stepping from his bed over to mine seeking acknowledgement, I'm grateful he is still here with me. We can start the day afresh, and maybe do better for ourselves again. It's a gift, use it.
Nice one. Dogs are fantastic listeners you can talk to them, they listen don't judge and wag their tails. Makes you smile and make your world feel OK 👍 I have always had dogs and great company in the mountains. They get you out and appreciate the great outdoors. Enjoy the dog adventure. Looking forward to Nimbus adventures.
Lost my Lab of 15 yrs in 2013 , so heartbroken just can't bring myself to have another , best mate I ever had , nice Trump face Hazey , enjoy Nimbus Matey , "live for the Day" .
Mate, if ever I want to spend 20 mins or so wearing a silly smile or feeling the warmth of humanity, I seek one of your many vids. Every one a gem ✨🫶🏻✨
Dude your videos are never short on entertainment. You're a funny fella that always keeps us interested... Do what you gotta do to keep that head in a good place because theres f@#k all funny about anyones mental health issues my friend.. Keep doing what you're doing because if you can inspire just a hand full of people then you're doing a whole heap of good shit.. 👌🏻👌🏻
Hey there Nimbus! Good to meet you kid. I got a Patterdale/ jack Russell of ten weeks old called Sigi, she's been to work with me everyday, and all my camping trips so far. She's now 8 and a half months and is well into the swing of things. Introduce them to everything and everyone from early on, it's the best thing you can do. It definitely gives you a new lease of life and the motivation to get up and out of the house everyday.
I think the new pup will be great and become a legend on your channel. Mans best friend up the hill what more do you want. Look forward to more videos.
Nice to have a dog for company...also they keep you nice & warm when camping!! My Chihuahua walked 37 miles of the Ridgeway last week. He's been used to camping since I've had him but this was his first long hike in a couple of years. He's a little pocket rocket Chihuahua, I knew he was fit but he impressed me with his stamina!
Hazey I know exactly what your saying about looking after a dog I two little Yorkies 18 months ago and since then I've lost five stone and really sorted my head by giving me something to look after and care for it gives you purpose and happiness and free fitness. Love your work mate.🎉
I don’t think any videos make me laugh as much as yours, you are such a funny guy but I can also relate to the mental health issues you deal with. Your videos have helped me so much, not just raising my sprits by cracking me up, but also making me feel less alone with mental health. I hope you realise the positive effects your videos have, not many people with such a large audience are as open with their feelings as you are and I’m sure it helps many people not just myself. Much love to you.
think you need to go and spend a weekend with Al and Blue! that would be an awesome episode! trusty Blue can teach Nimbus the ways of mountaineering wooferdom!!!
Lovely video as always Hazey, just be careful not to over exercise Nimbus. I understand that the recommendation is only 5 minutes per month of age until fully grown.
pro tip: take ya pupper into the vets on the regular just to put him on the scales. now hes a little older its a bit harder but the nurses/desk staff will still faun over him and likely give him treats. he will learn that the vets just means good attention and treats so when he has to go for an appointment there he will think its the greatest trip of a lifetime. i did it with mine since they were just pups and they life long loved going to the vets. i took mine in at least every week until they were out of the puppy stage. it dosnt even matter what their weight is, your not taking them to weigh them you are teaching them the routine of a normal vet visit. you wont regret it later on trust me.
Loving Nimbus and watching you slip into middle age 😜. Looking forward to the next mini adventure whenever, wherever , with whomever and whatever colour your face might be.
Top notch buddy, fab pup, word of caution, long walks are not great for pups due to their bone make up, brain training and walks of no more than 46-60 mins at Nimbuses age ❤❤
Bloody brilliant! Its just occurred to me that im filming me taking the dog for a walk!! Mate yu are a legend and so funny. My black labs 9 yrs now and is my best mate for walks and for keeping me sane. Awesome video! Loved it.
I did the coast to coast with my springer spaniel ,Hugo, and I couldn't have done with out him, he's the best hiking buddy I could ask for, looking forward to seeing your future adventures.
Hazy & Nimbus = Gold! 👌 I do most of my walks on here now with my two Westies and the walks with them massively improve my mental health. You can't beat a doggo for a friend, especially in the outdoors when you are both at your happiest. 🐾♥️
Youve got a good one there Hazy! Blood him early and get Nimbus used to all the intricacies of the outdoors Look forward to seeing more of your adventures together EDIT: Top tip - get Nimbus to 'wait' at every gate/stile until youve gone through..... Its really good practice and helps to prevent any wanderings or chases beyond the boundaries
cool...what great adventures you are going to have...we lost our Springer a couple of years ago and i cryed every day for a month...i was unsure about getting another but after watching this i feel i must, the time is right.
It's grand down south, Hazey lad. Apart from the price of everything, obviously. Nimbus is well behaved for a pup. That's a lovely little wagon. All the best.
nimbus is absolutely class mate. what a lad! as a man who walked dogs for a living for the best part of a decade, i can confirm there’s nowt better for t’noggin than a furry four legged hiking companion. also… fantastic use of the word ‘wazzock’ in this video.
Heya Hazy. I hope that you have the lightbulb moment, when you realise that dogs are BETTER than people. All they will ever need or want, is your love, affection and approval. Do your best and they will do the same.
Great video Hazey. It's good for you to have a companion now and again on your adventures. Nimbus was very good walking ahead and then waiting for you to catch up. Thanks for sharing. Take care. Best wishes to you and Fran
I'm just in the process of adopting a dog and this vid makes me so excited for the adventures we're gonna have! Thanks for the vid as always Hazey boi. Big love x
Braw you've got Nimbus for company mate,though best reason not to call him mate to common a word used every day that poor Nimbus will be running from pillar to post 😂😂😂😂😂,thankyou for sharing ❤🏴❤
hi im a pro dog walker and use are doing an amazing job with the training well done ,get him used to sheep and horses and one tip haze if he doesn't want to say hello to strangers don't make him ,,cant wait to see more of him i don't care about seing you anymore now that cute pup is here lol 💞
Took Reggie my new Labrador pup out on two overnight van camps . He absolutely loved it. Great to share the adventures with them . They have to have obedience though. Great video lad 🇮🇪🇮🇪
Another lovely, and uplifting video. Nimbus/Mate is a star in the making. Just gotta ask - what's that pack you're wearing? I like it, particularly those big old pockets for water bottles.
