My pink Julius harness

Meet Noodle 🐾
Meet Noodle: our much-loved cockapoo, official Chief Toy Tester, Bed Thief, Sock Collector and Professional Adventure Passenger, and the boss of this website. She loves her squeaky teddy, her pink harness and, above all, stealing the human bed.
We share real-life dog favourites and useful guides, and clearly distinguish products Noodle actually uses from those we have only researched.
The Noodle Chronicles
Big adventures, little paws and a suspicious amount of human effort. Real family photographs, real adventures, and Noodle's highly selective account of events.
🚴 70 miles to Blackpool — and I didn't pedal once!
Hello, peasants. My humans decided to cycle roughly 70 miles from Sowerby Bridge to Blackpool. Exhausting idea, frankly. Fortunately, I had a chauffeur-driven rucksack with excellent views.
We even had an unscheduled puncture stop. I supervised while the maintenance department got to work. By the time we reached Blackpool, my paws were spotless. Can't say the same for the humans.
Noodle's verdict: Five paws for the scenery. Chauffeur could improve his stamina. 🐾
🛶 Captain Noodle takes to the water
Some dogs fetch sticks. I command a vessel. My crew assembled, I took my rightful position in the kayak and inspected the lake. Naturally, the humans did the paddling.
Everyone seemed to enjoy themselves, although nobody offered me a captain's hat. An oversight I'll be raising at the next family meeting.
Noodle's verdict: Excellent crew. Lovely views. Next time, snacks on deck.
⛰️ Mountain dog, luxury passenger
Snowdon? Done it. Yorkshire Three Peaks? Been there. My humans enjoy climbing hills, and I enjoy being transported up them in my rucksack. We all have our talents.
I've also joined camping trips to Cornwall, explored historic castles and even helped with a 5K personal best. It's hard work being this inspirational.
Noodle's verdict: Adventures are wonderful. Carrying me is the humans' department.
Noodle's Naughty Diaries
🧦 Episode 1: The Great Sock Heist
Dear Diary,
Today another dog was playing with something that clearly belonged to me. Dad's sock. Naturally, I confiscated it immediately. I'm not entirely sure why they thought they were entitled to it.
After sorting that out, I discovered a pile of Dad's clothes. Some people see washing. I see luxury accommodation. So I rearranged everything into a cosy nest and settled down.
Dad says I have my own bed. That's adorable. He also thinks he owns the big bed upstairs.
Anyway, must dash. Dad's picked up his phone again and I need to paw it out of his hand. Those hands are for stroking me, not scrolling.
Love, Noodle 🐾
