Yesterday, after seeing a post on social media, I was thinking how important it is to know how a dog walker will handle stress, fear, or challenging behaviour when walking our clients dogs. Our dogs canโt speak for themselves, so itโs up to us to make sure theyโre in safe, kind hands.
As a dog walker, I always work within my own limits and use patient, positive, and ethical methods.
Something Iโve noticed during meet and greets is that a lot of owners donโt realise how helpful it can be to ask questions, but doing so can make a big difference when choosing the right person to care for your furry friend. Every walker will not always be the right fit for every dog (and vice versa!)
This next few weeks, Iโll be sharing some tips on what to look for when choosing a dog walker, so your best friend is happy, safe, and well cared for. Watch this space ๐ฅฐ
