A group walk in Leigh Woods

We all know a content dog is a well-exercised dog and we love seeing dogs active and happy outdoors.  We will collect your dog from home and then walk in South Bristol and surrounding areas.

We understand the importance of relationship when interacting with dogs.  For this reason the dogs always walk with Annie and they build a strong bond with her.  Many of our walks are over an hour and a half long, which gives the dogs time to settle and properly unwind.  We know dogs love to do natural activities such as sniffing, digging, exploring and playing so we allow plenty of time for this.  We also vary the places we walk, as we are keen to give the dogs a fun, enriching experience.

Basic training will naturally occur during walks.  For example, we may ask dogs to sit before letting them off the lead, randomly practice recall and play training games.  This is balanced with giving the dogs plenty of space and time to relax with their pals.  Of course all desired responses are positively reinforced, whether it be with praise, freedom, a game or food.

All of the dogs with Cannie Canines love their daily walks.  It’s an opportunity to have a good romp in the fresh air with their friends.  We see dogs that walk with us honing their dog social skills, becoming more fluid and relaxed and developing dog friendships.  At the end of the walk we return dogs to their home, relaxed and ready for a snooze.
