How We Do It

Secure & Safe Locations

Whilst wild walking can be exciting, it doesn't come without risks. These risks include; attacks from strange off lead dogs, dog thefts, discarded litter and dogs getting lost. That's why every single one of our walks are carried out in a variety of privately rented secure fields. This allows each dog the chance to have free roaming fun regardless of recall and you have peace of mind your loved one is safe.

More Than Just a Walk

Not only does your dog need exercise, they need the opportunity to drain energy, play and spend time with their own kind to learn essential manners, doggy etiquette & make friends!
Using only positive enforcement techniques we work with your dog to improve recall, social skills & play positively.
All our sessions follow a structured plan. We start with 20 mins of guided walking to naturally warm up and loosen joints. Providing the group is in a safe psychological state we then introduce games; such as fetch, football, frisbee, bubble games and water play.
The group is then guided to calm down through sniffy time and guided walking.

Keeping You Informed

Clients are notified of the exact time their dog is picked up & dropped back home via a WhatsApp Group, that can include up to 3 people of your choosing.
After each session a selection of videos/ photos are sent to the WhatsApp group.
We do not expect a response to these messages, these are for you to enjoy at a time that suits you.
