For today though, Bob and Patch are taking it easy with a well-earned lazy day full of naps, snacks and resting tired paws 🐶☀️

A very special thank you to the amazing Lubenham Scarecrow Committee for helping put together such a fun-filled day showcasing out little village — and thank you to Market Harborough for giving us such a warm welcome! 👋🎡

🛁🐾 Barley Bob and Patch are officially getting Carnival-ready for the Market Harborough Carnival this Saturday, 6th June! 🎉

Patch is especially excited… and currently soaking in a mountain of bubbles while preparing for all the belly rubs he’s expecting from his adoring fans 🐶🫧

Meanwhile, Barley Bob is making sure his festival style is perfectly polished — after all, they both know they need to look their BEST for such a big Harborough tradition 🎩✨

This lovable duo can’t wait for all the laughter, fun and festivities… and they’re counting down the days until they can meet everyone!

Will you be there to say hello to Bob & Patch this weekend? 👋☀️

🎡 As Barley Bob and Patch get ready to meet everyone at the Market Harborough Carnival next week, there was ONE very important stop Bob simply couldn’t walk past… 🍭

✨ FlossBox ✨

The moment Bob spotted the candy floss and festival hats, he just couldn’t resist treating himself to a brand new Carnival look 🎩☀️

And they will be at the Lubenham Scarecrow Festival this year with their stall packed with sugary goodness! 🍬

Poor Patch watched on hopefully… but Bob reminded him, “Sorry Patch, sugar isn’t good for dogs!” 🐶💭

Don’t worry though — Patch knows Bob’s pockets are NEVER empty… especially when they’re usually stuffed full of tasty meaty treats for his best furry friend 🦴❤️

Now Bob has a very important question…
👀 What do YOU think he should wear for his big Carnival day?

Will you be there to give Bob a wave and maybe sneak Patch a treat or two? 🎉🐾

📬 Clink clink! went the letterbox early this morning…

“Hmm… I wonder what THAT could be, Patch?” 🤔 says Barley Bob as Patch watches on with wagging-tail curiosity 🐾
Moments later Bob bursts with excitement…

🎉 “PATCH! We’ve been invited to the Market Harborough Carnival!” 🎉

Safe to say the scarecrow hat nearly flew off with excitement and Patch is already dreaming of treats, tummy rubs and tennis balls 🎾🐶

Come and meet Barley Bob & Patch at the Carnival on the 6th of June for plenty of fun, smiles and scarecrow silliness! Who’s coming along? 👀☀️

☀️ As Summer rolls in, Barley Bob and Patch have been busy causing mischief in the Town Square while supporting the local festival Tombola Stall! 🎟️🐾

Patch has his eyes firmly set on the Tennis Ball Set this year 🎾 — nothing beats the thrill of chasing one across the Village Green in Lubenham after Bob gives it a mighty throw!

This year’s Lubenham Scarecrow Festival Tombola is bigger and better, with amazing local organisations joining in the fun, including:

✨ Harborough Friends of Oxfam
✨ Hab-Antibullying & mental health
✨ Welland Park Academy Prom Committee
✨ Squires Effect

There’ll be prizes, laughs, surprises and plenty of chances to try your luck while supporting some fantastic local causes 💛

📅 Don’t miss it — 12th & 13th September!

So tell us… what’s the funniest, strangest or BEST thing you’ve ever won at a Tombola stall? 👀🎁

🌞🐾 Barley Bob & Patch have been out roaming the beautiful Leicestershire countryside!

From rolling green fields to sunny skies and countryside sounds, it’s safe to say Patch thinks the whole county is his giant playground! 🌾☀️🐶

With tails wagging, birds scattering, and adventures around every corner, these two are making the most of the great outdoors this Spring! 🚜🌼

And after a long day in the fields, there’s nothing quite like ending the day with a delicious coffee in the countryside… ☕✨

We’re excited to have Penny’s Vintage Bar joining us this year, bringing the flavour and that much-needed caffeine boost to keep you fuelled for all the fantastic activities on offer for the whole family! 🍰🚐

📅 Don’t forget to pop the Lubenham Scarecrow Festival into your calendars — 12th & 13th September!

Barley Bob is already on his big adventure, making his way to the Lubenham Scarecrow Festival! 🌾

Taking a well-earned break from all the travelling, Bob and his new friend Patch are back to what they do best… SCARING BIRDS!! 🐦
“Shoo shoo!” says Bob, while Patch eagerly joins in with a “woof woof!” 🐶

With the spring sun shining and the village looking brighter than ever after Lubenham in Bloom, there’s no better time for a bit of good old-fashioned "shooing". Just look at those beautiful flowers—absolutely stunning! 🌸

Be sure to join Barley Bob, Patch, and friends for some fun at the Lubenham Scarecrow Festival this September (12th & 13th). You won’t want to miss it!
