Wolfpack Weekly: Behind the Scenes, Family Gossip and Life with the Izy Staffy Wolfpack! 🐾❤️
Every Friday at 5:30 pm UK time, a brand-new episode of Wolfpack Weekly arrives on our YouTube channel, bringing you all the latest adventures, family gossip and behind-the-scenes fun from Wolfpack Towers. And if you think it's all about puppies, you're in for a surprise!
Have you ever wondered what really goes on behind the scenes at Wolfpack Towers?
What the dogs get up to when the cameras aren't rolling for Instagram? Why Agatha is so obsessed with her stick? What on earth Peggy is doing sliding around the garden? Or who is getting into trouble this week?
Well, there's a good chance you'll find the answers on Wolfpack Weekly, our weekly YouTube programme following the everyday adventures of the Izy Staffy Wolfpack.
Every Friday, we invite you into our home to spend a little time with our family of Staffordshire Bull Terriers, sharing the funny moments, the heartwarming ones, the occasional disasters and all the little things that make life with the Wolfpack so special.
And with a house full of Staffies, there's never a shortage of material.
Some weeks we wonder how we're going to fit everything into one episode!
There's More to the Wolfpack Than Puppies!
We absolutely love sharing our puppies with you.
From the excitement of a new litter arriving to those magical first few weeks watching tiny Staffordshire Bull Terrier puppies open their eyes, find their feet and begin exploring the world, it's a privilege to share those moments.
But there's an awful lot more going on at Wolfpack Towers.
While the puppies are busy growing up, the rest of the Wolfpack are getting on with their lives, and they have absolutely no intention of being upstaged by a few cute babies.
Take Peggy, for example.
Peggy has her own rather unique approach to getting around, and her famous slides have become part of Wolfpack life. Why walk normally when you can turn an ordinary journey into a performance?
Then there's Agatha and her stick.
To most people, it's just a stick. To Agatha, it's a prized possession, a source of endless entertainment and quite possibly the most important object in the entire garden.
And, of course, there's King Tommy, who takes his royal responsibilities very seriously, even if the rest of the Wolfpack don't always show him the respect he feels he deserves.
Every dog has a personality, little habits and relationships with the others. Some are comedians, some are troublemakers, some are incredibly affectionate, and some seem to spend their lives wondering what on earth the others are doing.
That's one of the things we love most about living with Staffordshire Bull Terriers.
They might all be the same breed, but they're certainly not the same dog.
Wolfpack Weekly gives you the chance to get to know them as individuals, rather than simply recognising their faces in a photograph.
And once you know who's who, watching their adventures becomes a completely different experience.
The Stories Behind the Stories
One of the reasons we wanted to write this article is that we regularly receive questions about things happening within the Wolfpack.
Who's staying with us? Why has one of the dogs gone on holiday? What's happening with Agatha? Where does Floyd fit into the family? And what has young Walter been getting up to now?
Sometimes the answers are quite straightforward.
Other times, there's a whole story behind them.
Take the recent adventures involving Agatha, her Scottish boyfriend Floyd and Prince Walter.
If you've only seen a photograph or a short reel on social media, you might be wondering what on earth is going on.
But viewers of Wolfpack Weekly have been able to follow the story as it unfolds.
From Floyd's return to Wolfpack Towers and his reunion with Agatha to the various comings and goings within the family, the Weekly gives us the opportunity to explain what's happening and show you the moments that photographs alone can't capture.
It's also where we can share the little details that make the stories so entertaining.
The looks the dogs give one another. Their reactions to new arrivals. The things they do when we least expect them.
And, occasionally, the things they do when they know perfectly well we're watching!
We try to share as much as we can through our website and social media, but it's impossible to squeeze a whole week's adventures into a handful of photographs.
Wolfpack Weekly is where you get the bigger picture.
So if you've ever found yourself wondering about something you've seen on our social media, there's a very good chance we've already talked about it, or even filmed it, in an episode.
A Little Bit of Everything, Just Like Life at Wolfpack Towers
One of the nicest things about Wolfpack Weekly is that we never quite know what each episode will contain.
We can have all sorts of plans for the week, but the dogs generally have their own ideas.
Sometimes an episode might revolve around a new litter of puppies, with all the excitement, sleepless nights and tiny milestones that come with raising them.
Another week, we might find ourselves following an unexpected adventure in the garden, introducing a visiting member of the Wolfpack family or dealing with the latest bit of mischief.
There are everyday routines, family moments, funny conversations, little victories and occasionally a few things that don't go quite according to plan.
We also share some of the practical side of living with Staffordshire Bull Terriers.
After all, we've spent many years sharing our lives with these wonderful dogs, and there's always something new to learn.
Whether it's how we manage a busy household of Staffies, the preparations for a litter, the personalities of the older dogs or the challenges of raising an energetic youngster, we enjoy showing you what life is really like.
Not a perfectly polished version where everything always goes smoothly.
Just us, our dogs and whatever the week brings.
And sometimes, the most ordinary moments turn out to be the funniest.
Apparently, Dogs Love Wolfpack Weekly Too! 📺🐶
Now, here's something that always makes us smile.
Over time, we've discovered that some of our most enthusiastic Wolfpack Weekly viewers aren't actually human.
They're dogs!
We've had people telling us that their dogs love watching the Wolfpack on television.
Some sit quietly and watch. Others become rather interested when they hear the barking, and a few apparently feel the need to join in with the conversation.
We absolutely love hearing these stories.
There's something wonderfully funny about imagining Staffordshire Bull Terriers and other dogs sitting in living rooms around the country, watching our lot getting up to their usual nonsense.
Perhaps they're wondering why Peggy keeps sliding about.
Maybe they're trying to work out what Agatha finds so fascinating about her stick.
Or perhaps they're simply enjoying a bit of canine company from the comfort of their own sofa.
Whatever the reason, we'd love to see them.
Is Your Dog a Wolfpack Weekly Fan?
Send us a photograph of your dog watching Wolfpack Weekly on television!
Tell us their name, where they're watching from and, if you like, which member of the Wolfpack is their favourite.
You can email your photographs to hello@izystaffywolfpack.com
We'd love to share some of our four-legged viewers with the rest of the Wolfpack family, and perhaps even feature a few in a future episode.
If you're happy for us to share your photograph, please let us know when you email.
And don't worry if your dog isn't a Staffy. All breeds are welcome at Wolfpack Towers!
Get to Know the Dogs, Not Just Their Names
If you're new to the Izy Staffy Wolfpack, we know it can take a little while to work out who's who.
There are quite a few personalities to remember!
You might arrive on our website after seeing an adorable puppy on Facebook, or perhaps you've discovered one of our videos while looking for information about Staffordshire Bull Terriers.
Then suddenly you're hearing about King Tommy, Peggy, Agatha, Walter, Mumbles and the rest of the gang.
Before long, you're wondering who belongs to whom, which dog is related to which and why everybody seems to have their own peculiar habits.
That's part of the fun.
As you watch Wolfpack Weekly, you gradually get to know the family.
You begin recognising the dogs without needing somebody to tell you their names.
You learn who likes what, who's likely to cause trouble, who enjoys a cuddle and which members of the Wolfpack are usually involved when something ridiculous happens.
You also get to know us.
Because although the dogs are undoubtedly the stars of the show, Wolfpack Weekly is about the family that shares its life with them too.
It's the little conversations, the laughter, the daily routines and the relationship we have with our dogs that make the Wolfpack what it is.
And the longer you watch, the more those familiar faces and personalities begin to feel like old friends.

[WATCH WOLFPACK WEEKLY ON YOUTUBE]
We'd also love you to join in.
Leave us a comment, tell us which dog makes you laugh the most, ask a question or share your own Staffordshire Bull Terrier stories.
One of the loveliest things about the Wolfpack is the community of people who follow our adventures. Some have been with us for years, others have only just found us, but everybody is welcome.
And don't forget to send us those photographs of your dogs watching!
See You at Wolfpack Towers! ❤️
When we first started sharing our lives with the Wolfpack, we never imagined just how many people would become interested in the everyday adventures of our dogs.
But somewhere along the way, something rather lovely happened.
People didn't just fall in love with the puppies.
They began getting to know the whole family.
They remembered the dogs' names, followed their stories, laughed at their antics and cared about what happened to them.
And that's really what Wolfpack Weekly is all about.
Not simply watching Staffordshire Bull Terriers on YouTube, but sharing a little part of our lives with people who love these wonderful dogs as much as we do.
There will always be puppies, adventures, surprises and probably a fair amount of chaos.
Peggy will no doubt continue sliding around, Agatha will remain devoted to her stick, and somebody somewhere in Wolfpack Towers will almost certainly be getting up to something they shouldn't.
And we'll be there with the camera, trying not to laugh.
So whether you've been following us for years or you're meeting the Wolfpack for the very first time, we'd love you to join us.
Every Friday. 5:30 pm UK time.
Bring a cuppa, make yourself comfortable and come and spend a little time with the Wolfpack.
We'll see you on Wolfpack Weekly! 🐾❤️
Ian, Julie & the Wolfpack
