A dogโs love is the purest thing youโll ever know. Itโs not complicated by words or motives, just simple devotion that shows up every single day. Itโs in the way they greet you like youโre the most important person in the world, no matter how long youโve been gone.
Itโs steady, without hesitation, a love that doesnโt fade when things get tough. A dogโs love isnโt about what you can give, itโs about who you are to them. Itโs loyalty, comfort, and understanding, all wrapped into one quiet, constant presence that never asks for anything but to be near you..

R V Hounds came about when our rescue bassethound Boris was referred for hydrotherapy sessions following his diagnosis of hip dysplasia. At the time I was a voluntary dog-walker for the RSPCA but it quickly became apparent that I would need extra funding to help pay for Borisโ treatment as the insurance alone would not cover the cost.
So I decided to offer a dog-walking service to other pet owners, who like ourselves, often found it difficult to find someone to care for our dogs if we were on holiday or wanted to go out for the day.
I quickly established a small regular client base, most people work during the week and wanted their dog exercised while they were out, so I collect their dog from their home, take them for their walk and then return them after. Other clients just want cover for holidays and return each year. Some time after, I was able to purchase a van that I was able to equip with crates and a cooling fan.
Both Boris and our other bassethound Henrie have since passed away, but I love dog-walking and so will continue my business in both their memories as long as people want me to care for their pets. Hank is the latest bassethound member of our household and will sometimes accompany me.
In loving memory of Henrie (2004-2016) & Boris (rescued 2011 approx 4yrs old - 2017) ###
