Waverley Dog Walks

Make sure to check on your dogs paws 🐾

Your dog could start developing frostbite on their paws in as little as 30 minutes. Areas with less blood flow may appear grayish or pale and feel cold to the touch. Your dog may flinch or show pain when you touch those areas. If the paw pads are affected, your dog may be lame or lick his feet.

DO NOT rub or massage the affected area.
If you are outdoors, DO NOT warm a frostbitten area if you cannot keep it warm. Additional cold exposure or refreezing will more severely injure the tissues.
You may carefully warm the affected area with warm (NOT HOT) water. The recommended water temperature is 104 to 108°F (40 to 42°C). At this temperature, you should be able to comfortably place your hand in the warm water. If the water is too hot, you may cause more damage than not using any water at all. You may apply warm water compresses or soak the affected area in a bowl of warm water. DO NOT use direct dry heat such as a heating pad or hair dryer.
After you have warmed the area, pat him dry carefully and thoroughly. Do not rub your dog with the towels. Go to your vets for advice.

Due to horrendous flooding in our local area, the dog walking group has decided to postpone our weekly walk until tomorrow morning. Our thoughts are with those affected by the flooding.

⚠️Just a little PSA to help keep your pups safe in this heat ⚠️

‼️🚨HEATSTROKE AWARENESS 🚨‼️

It’s that time of year again, warm weather has arrived and some people still walk their dogs in the middle of the day, on hot tarmac. If you’re hot, your dog is a lot hotter in their fur coat. Please make sure your dog:

⚠️Has access to plenty of water
⚠️Has plenty of shade
⚠️Is walked during cooler times of the day (early morning or late evening, never in Midday heat)
⚠️Is never walked on hot tarmac
⚠️Is never left in a hot car, even with the window ajar.

Heatstroke can kill in 15 minutes. Please be responsible and ensure your dogs welfare.

Morning everyone,

We are back this week after a two week hiatus due to a bout of kennel cough on the estate.

If your pup is symptom free and you would like to join the group walk we will be meeting behind Central Park at 10 am.

I’m not sure I’ll be able to bring Maxi as I pulled my shoulder/neck yesterday and he’s too strong to manage without doing anymore damage.

I hope you all have a lovely walk 🐕‍🦺🐾🦴

Hi guys,

There is no official dog walk this evening due to nights drawing in and it getting darker. But please feel free to use the group chat and let people know if you are going to be out walking and where you are going in case people still want to join someone else for a walk. I think this is how Wednesday’s will have to work from now until the Spring, with it being too dark for big group walks around the lake at 7:30pm and people not being home from work in time to make earlier walks.

Hope to still see you on Saturdays.

Just in case you weren't aware/haven't heard, there are a large number of very dangerous vents around the lake and nature reserve area of the estate. They have caused catastrophic injuries to two dogs that I am aware of and I myself have tripped over one in the long grass while out walking. So please be extra vigilant while out walking your dog(s).

Unfortunately, I have to work this morning (one of only three Saturdays in the year that I have to) so I am going to be unable to attend this morning's group dog walk, but please feel free to still meet up without me. Have a lovely bank holiday everyone ☺️
