When treats appear, Daphne doesn’t just run, she launches.

Oh wow. In the UK the dogs only really have squirrels to chase. The squirrels are never more than a few metres away from a tree so there’s no real danger of them getting caught.

Do yours actually catch the squirrels?!

Maggie was lucky enough to have a few days at the beach with her uncle Archie.

Cara and Ted love chasing squirrels. Thankfully they’ve never caught one.

I’ve not met a dog that doesn’t understand “Squirrel” or “where is it?” 🤣🐿️

Ziggy’s convinced I’ve taken a wrong turn. Guess I’ll have to go back and fetch him this time.

I only walk up to three dogs at a time. In the UK, it is completely normal to see dogs running free (but under control) in parks.

It usually takes a week or two before a new dog “graduates” to off lead walks. Some never do, they just enjoy their adventures on lead instead.

Rupert and Sylvie have joined my pack.

Pippa’s usually a blur of energy, this is one of those rare moments when she actually stopped moving. #dogs #cockerspaniel #spaniel

Rocky and Ziggy have become best buddies. They love their walks together.

Very interesting. Although it makes me a little sad that the “ball junkie” dogs I walk may play to distract themselves from stressful situations.

Maggie loves exploring a stream, right up until the water threatens to touch her belly.

Bo is an 11 month-old bundle of energy. He’s curious about absolutely everything and amazed by the whole world.

I feel very lucky to take a short break from dog walking and enjoy a holiday in Turkey. Last night, I met some new four-legged friends on the streets 🐾🇹🇷

He’s as big as a Labrador. Here’s him next to a wire haired pointer, best comparison pic I have right now.

Rocky never stops, he lives for his walks. Such a happy dog. He’s also the biggest Beagle I’ve ever seen!

I had my last walk with Billy the English Bull Terrier this week. His owners are moving away. I’ve loved walking him and I’ll miss him ❤️🐶
