I do love a muddy trail walk 🥾

When out walking your spaniel in wet windy conditions - please be careful of those big ear flappers - they can sometimes turn into airplanes and take off. It’s a nightmare to get them to land! ✈️

By nature, dogs are social and thrive in group environments.
Walking in a pack has many benefits for your dog, It's a great confidence booster for your dog as Walking with a group of other dogs provides a feeling of security, It's a great way to learn socialising skills too.

Hey you, I’m glad you found us!
And by us I mean, team walkies.

I’m Fran Drake owner of walkies and this is my dog Rudy (the real face of the company)
Dogs have always been a constant factor in my life, from growing up in the show stalls of crufts with my grandmother and her champion Dalmatians, I was always surrounded by dogs and the best trainers in the world so it’s safe to say that I knew from a young age that dogs would always feature heavily in my life.

When I left school I got my qualifications in animal care, animal
Management and animal behaviour.
Since those school days I have added in qualifications in animal cpr, animal first aid and pet sitting.

Since starting walkies many years ago now,I have worked with all breeds, all types of needs and behaviours - including rehabilitation of rescued street dogs like Rudy who came to me from Romania with a variety of issues but I think it’s safe to say that he is a well adjusted young gentlemen.

When you hire me to walk your dog, it’s never just a walk:
That walk is me building a bond with your dog so I can better understand them, to figure out what makes them tick so I can help improve your relationship with your dog and improve their behaviour inside and outside of the home.

Rudy is my Colleague and right pawed man, he has a way of supporting other dogs that are a little nervous or anxious and teaches them the ways of the walkies gang.

When you hire walkies, you can be safe in the knowledge that we are a reliable, well established, insured and qualified service that puts your best friend first and foremost.

We look forward to meeting you 🐾

Someone’s making the most of sunshine 🐾☀️🐾

This happy little guy though always makes my day brighter no matter what the weather 🥰

A very happy lab on our morning walk,it really is hard to be anything but happy when your with dogs 🐾

NOTE: I am not a dog trainer nor profess to be one. Dogs are intelligent beings and enjoy learning.As part of all walks I actively encourage them to learn and it is always useful to get any dog to learn the basic commands of sit,stay,leave,paw and down. Everything I do is done in a positive rewarding way.Here is Loki showing off his basic commands for the camera.
