Faces of angles 😇 but little devils 😈 this afternoon! Everyone had their naughty head on, so not the easiest walks, but that's the way it goes sometimes when you're working with animals 🤪🙈🐾

We were walking in a winter wonderland this morning over ❄️🐾

20/11/2024

A quiet afternoon for us, so we went to the big field to let off some steam and have a run before heading to our favourite coffee spot for a warm drink ☕️ and a gravey bone 🍖

I may have let them have a little lick of my cream, too 🤫🫢😆💖🐾

This is the way we walk the dogs on a cold and frosty morning 🌄 🥶🐾

Lots of fun with the girl gang this morning.

Finds include a dead shrew (I think), tennis ball 🎾, and lots of sticks 🪵

19/11/2024

We kept it local yesterday, with a nice walk through the orchards and hermatige park woods.
Lots of tree climbing, and lip smacking, I had cooked some lambs liver. 😋 🪵 🐾

19/11/2024

Coats out today! We've had a nice dry run recently,
but it couldn't last forever.

Not many pics from today as my phone storage keeps getting full, too many dog pics. The problem is I can't bear to delete them! 🥺🙈

Spot the dog 🐕 🍂😆

What do you get when you have 2 dog walkers, 4 spaniels, and 1 dead pigeon... answers on a postcard 📩

(Just to add, we found the bird dead)

FAQ'S - Availability Adhoc/Regular walks

I give priority to clients with set days for regular walks each week.

I do take on clients who don't have set days but have at least one walk per week. I ask clients to let me know what days they need by Saturday evening for the following week so I can plan my week. This is on a first come, first served basis. I can usually accommodate all requests around my regular dogs with set days, but it may be good to have a backup.

Unfortunately, I don't take on very occasional ad hoc clients (once in a blue moon) or short-term walks (ie. For people on holiday for a week). This is because I have found that most dogs take time to get to know me and the other dogs we walk with, and it's not worth the short-term disruption.

I do, however, take on dogs for clients that may need a dog walker for a period when they are recovering from surgery or a big life change like the birth of a baby, etc.

Please do ask if you're not sure. If I can't accommodate what you need, I can usually recommend someone who can.

Have a lovely weekend, all the best, Vicky 💖🐾

FAQ'S - what happens on a Group Dog Walk.

I run two group walks a day of usually 4, sometimes 5 dogs. I am insured up to 6.

Walks are 1 hour long, at my discretion. If it is too hot or torrential rain, for example, I might cut the walk short. If their is an emergency/injury, I will cut the walk short and contact owners. However, on fair days, we may be out longer than an hour.

Morning walk is approximately 10am-12noon with pick-ups and drop-offs. This usually suits people who are at home with their dogs or who are back early afternoon.

Afternoon walk is approximately 12 noon -2pm with pick ups and drop offs. Which usually suits people working 9-5 hours or home later.

Times can vary slightly depending on traffic and other factors.

I pick you dog up from your home with a key or key safe, or you can hand them to me at the door if you are in.

All the dogs have their own space secured in my car until we get to our walking location.

Walking locations can be the woods, fields, country parks, river. I like to keep it varied.

I provide leads, treats, and poo bags. I just need your dogs collar and / or harness and any coats they may require.

We start and end out walks on lead to create a bit of calm at the beginning and end of the walks. Dogs are only let off with permission from owners, and once I'm happy with their recall and obviously when safe to do so.

The dogs sniff, explore, play, and I do enrichment and little games with them to keep them engaged and entertained .

I always offer water on our walks and maybe a few treats for good recall, sitting, etc.

We have lots of fun, and everyone gets a fuss if they want one.

When we head back to the car, I clean the dogs up as much as possible. I carry towels, clean water, and a fox poo shampoo, but I can only do the best I can in a short amount of time so dogs won't come home looking groomed.

I hope all the dogs go home satisfied and sleepy.

FAQ'S - Services & Prices

Hello, I thought it might be helpful to do a series of FAQ posts. So I'm starting with services and pricing.

Group walks - £15
I currently run two group walks a day on either side of midday. Monday to Friday, during term times.
These are 1 hour walks with 3/4 other friendly dogs. All dogs are picked up and dropped off after their walks so dogs can be out of the house for 2-2.5 hours, depending on the day.

Small Animal Care Visits £10-£16
This is a drop in service mainly for people on holiday, to feed and care for cats, rabbits, guinea-pigs, etc. in their home.
Visits are up to 30 mins and priced at £10 for 1 visit a day or £16 for two visits (am and pm). These visits are available all year round, including weekends and bank holidays (bank holidays are double charge) , depending on availability and with the exception of Christmas.

Unfortunately, I do not have the capacity to do solo walks or lunchtime visits at this time. Puppy visits are available upon request for puppies looking to join group walks from 6 months of age.

I hope you have found this useful.

If you have any questions you'd like answered, please drop me a message/comment. I'm happy to answer them here or offline.

All the best, Vicky 🐾

Tuesdays morning group.

06/11/2024

Not an easy walk today and not many pics as we're were really focused.
Super proud of all these girls. We went to the river but it's fishing season and the weather is mild so it was very busy with anglers.
The girls were so good staying with me and not bothering the fishermen, but there were lots of treats involved! Well done, girls 💪💖🐾

Friday frolics. 🐾🐶💛

Lots of fun and frolics today. It was quite on the field, so I got a ball out to throw for the pups. Unfortunately, I didn't get any videos of that as my hands were too muddy, but it was lots of fun. 😆🐾
