*** THE INSTANT TOP TEN BESTSELLER ***HIGHLY COMMENDED FOR THE 2025 WAINWRIGHT PRIZE FOR NATURE WRITING SHORTLISTED FOR THE RICHARD JEFFERIES AWARDPaul Lamb is a hedgelayer. He lives in his wagon and works to the rhythm of the seasons, a way of life that has almost vanished. From the end of summer until the birds nest in the spring, he travels the south-west corner of England, maintaining the ancient boundaries of our nation.

As traditional management techniques are lost to modernisation, hedgerows and the wildlife they support have declined dramatically. Paul has devoted decades to saving and rejuvenating this important but often forgotten part of Britian’s countryside.

Of Thorn & Briar is Paul’s spellbinding account of living in partnership with the land, practising his craft with skill and preserving our heritage for future generations. Once you’ve read it, you will never look at the humble hedgerow in the same way again.

‘[A] beguiling book . . . this spare but elegant account is an unexpected delight, and as soothing as a walk down a tree-dappled lane at sunset’ Daily Mail ‘Gentle, evocative and compelling’ Patrick Barkham, The Oldie ‘This is a delightful book and one that deserves to enter the pantheon of distinguished Nature writing’ Country Life

Creative and well made!
Color: Squirrel
This is a great dog toy, durable, creative, and it kept my dogs busy and very, very interested. It's challenging enough, but not frustrating. Great for tug of war, too!

Looks like fun but NO
Was so excited to get this and slow my girls down eating their treats and engage them in play. How big do the treats have to be? Because I had to scoop wet gross chewed up treats out of each pocket, vacuum, and put them in the washing machine AFTER my girls abandoned them with the treats still in the pockets. GREAT IDEA but not functional. Agressive chewers would have destroyed the toy the first time. SO DISAPPOINTED

Keep these in our pet toy collection at all times.
Size: 15", Style: Rabbit
My 4 dogs love this toy so much I have them all over to play with. The inside helps make this adorable toy last for longer than most dog toys and for the price this means ALOT to me for the value of my money. This dog toy is soft and fun to throw around the house and not break anything as they chase it around. What dog doesn't love a squeaker toy also for an added bonus. The squeaker doesn't last long with 4 large dogs, but long enough I feel like for the price I paid.

My dog loves the Multipet Skele toys!
Size: 15", Style: Duck
My dog absolutely loves this toy and the similar ones (we had a snowman first). He rolls around with it and seems to be so happy. My dog is an aggressive chewer- and he destroys these toys within a couple of months. We have to take pieces of it away as they come loose, especially the squeeker, but he still plays with the rest. I wish it would last longer because he really loves it, but I haven’t found a toy that he cant destroy yet.

Terrible!!!!
Size: 15", Style: Duck
My 2 Australian shepards destroyed this cheaply made toy in 20 minutes! It's advertised for tough chewers, lol, the material it was made from is so thin, you could almost see through it. Don't waste your time or money!
