Lyra found a patch of sunlight on her recent woodland walk #SchnauzerGang #DogsOfBluesky

Lyra the black miniature schnauzer sitting in a patch of sunlight filtered through trees. To be strictly accurate she didn't find it, we thought it might make a nice photo and bribed her to sit there with the promise of a treat, but hey.

Lyra's #TongueOutTuesday being gatecrashed by Skye the Westie (who wasn't getting into the spirit of it at all) #SchnauzerGang #DogsOfBluesky

Lyra is so glad it's Friday so she can finally relax after a hectic week of sprawling, with a bit of basking thrown in #SchnauzerGang #DogsOfBluesky

Not another Monday! Lyra's sure we only had one last week, and is going to stay in bed until this nonsense blows over... #SchnauzerGang #DogsOfBluesky

Thursday Throwback all the way back to... last Sunday, Lyra after her bath drying off in her dressing gown #SchnauzerGang #DogsOfBluesky

Lyra got a bit muddy on her Schnauzerfest walk so had to have a bath afterwards... #SchnazuersAgainstBaths #TongueOutTuesday #SchnauzerGang #DogsOfBlueSky #ThatsProbablyEnoughHashtags

A slightly soggy Schnauzerfest walk this morning, but Lyra still enjoyed meeting friends (and eating biscuits!) #SchnauzerGang #DogsOfBluesky

Oh no, the humans missed National Schnauzer Day, didn't even get Lyra a cake or anything so she's sulking now (or just having her usual morning snooze, possibly) #SchnauzerGang #DogsOfBluesky

This week's Woodland Wednesday sees Lyra once again furious that squirrels can climb trees... #SchnauzerGang #DogsOfBluesky

Lyra the black miniature schnauzer standing in woodland, looking upwards into the branches of a tree where a squirrel has just escaped. She's about to start barking at it, a strategy that has yet to convince a squirrel to come back down but she lives in hope.

As autumn mornings turn a little chilly, Lyra does enjoy a spot of apricating to start the day... #SchnauzerGang #DogsOfBluesky

How does one million pounds sound?

One...
…million
…pounds…

This is the amount that’s a breath away from being raised since the first Schnauzerfest walk in October 2014.

A million pounds raised by this amazing community.

It's an astounding sum of money. For any charity it is a big milestone.

Lyra isn't too keen on car journeys, but does like watching the world go by... #SchnauzerGang #DogsOfBluesky

She's a miniature schnauzer (but looking a bit scruffy at six months old before her first groom)

Lyra had a fab time, met several new friends, and had a pup cup in a cafe afterwards, best afternoon ever! Also good and tiring, ideal for a long snooze on the sofa afterwards while it rained.

She was always plain black (apart from a tiny white spot on her chest), but she had a harness that rubbed a couple of spots on her sides, and the fur there has grown back slightly brown for some reason!
