Mum added this one after our Yorkshire Canine Academy training and I LOVE it. Tasty chicken, crunchy bits, raw goodness and no freezer needed in the motorhome. Keeps me full, focused and ready for adventures. 12/10 would woof again.

This is my snuggle blanket. Mum says it’s “eco‑friendly” because it’s made from recycled materials, but I just know it’s soft, warm and perfect for wrapping myself up like a giant Labrador burrito. I drag it onto the sofa, into the motorhome, onto Mu...

I learned very quickly that if you own a Labrador — especially one like Blu, who sheds enough hair to knit a second dog — you need these blankets. Between the British weather, muddy paws, and him trotting in and out like he pays the mortgage, my sofa...

This is my serious fetch ball. It’s spiky, bouncy, chewy and basically indestructible… well, Mum says it’s indestructible, but I take that as a personal challenge. Perfect for zoomies, van‑life pit stops and showing off how fast I can run when I hear...

This is my squeaky stick — the one that makes Mum jump every time I chomp it. It squeaks, it flies, it bonks off things, and I carry it around like I’ve just won a trophy. Perfect for fetch, zoomies, van‑life pit stops and annoying Mum during her qui...

This is my tug‑tug‑tug toy. Me and Mum have HOURS of fun with this one — proper growly play, zoomies, and dramatic tug battles. It’s strong, chunky and somehow still in one piece even though I’ve tried my best to “Blu‑ify” it. Perfect for tug, fetch,...

This is my super‑strong tug toy — the one Mum says is “built like a tank”, and honestly, she’s right. We play tug, fetch, shake‑it‑like‑a‑loon, and it STILL hasn’t broken. I can grab any of the rings, do my big growly play voice, and show off my musc...

I’ve got TWO of these — one at home and one in the van. I love them so much that I was playing with one in the front seat while Mum was driving… until it rolled under the pedals. Now it only comes out when we’re parked up! It glows, bounces, and make...

This is my “I need to chew something RIGHT NOW” toy. It’s the super‑tough black KONG — the one Mum stuffs with treats or peanut butter when I’m being a bit too… enthusiastic. I can bounce it, chew it, chase it and throw it around like a maniac, and i...

This is my “indestructible… almost” ball. I chewed the rope off ages ago (obviously), but the ball itself? I cannot beat it. I’ve tried. I’ve chomped, squished, pounced, rolled, and done my strongest big‑boy bites — nothing. It just bounces back like...

This is my special seat belt for the motorhome. Mum says it keeps me safe, but I say it keeps me from trying to climb into the front to help her drive. It clips onto my harness and stops me doing “helpful” Labrador things like standing up at roundabo...

This is my long‑lead of dreams. five whole metres of freedom so I can sniff every blade of grass, trot ahead like an explorer and pretend I’m leading an expedition. Mum says it’s “for controlled walking,” but I say it’s for zoomies, adventures and dr...

You’ll see this in loads of my videos because Blu is almost always clipped to it — usually the bright fluorescent orange one, because if I’m going to lose something, it won’t be this. I stick it in the ground, clip him on, and he gets to roam around ...

When you’ve gotta go, you’ve gotta go — and Blu takes that motto very seriously. These are my favourite poo bags because they’re big enough to cover my entire hand, wrist, and half my arm if needed. I’m not out here trying to play “guess the temperat...
