DOES THE WEATHER AFFECT MY PET'S SERVICE?
Purely canine services carry on rain or shine unless the weather is considered a risk to me or your dog. On rainy days your dog will be towel dried and returned home to snuggle down.
During the hotter months water will be offered to your dog before, during and after their outing. Walking routes which provide more shade and even swimming opportunities will be chosen.

HOW DO YOU ENSURE THE SAFETY OF MY DOG?
HOW DO YOU ENSURE THE SAFETY OF MY DOG?
As a qualified vet nurse, health and safety procedures are naturally part of what I do. Your dog is never left unattended and is walked in areas that are suitable, with a mix of on and off lead exercise. I walk small groups with a maximum of four dogs. This ensures optimum control and safety. All dogs must go through an induction process before joining a group to ensure they are well balanced and socialised. Transport with Purely Canine is done safely and first aid kits for humans and dogs are always carried.
How do I book my dog in for the walking service?
HOW DO I BOOK MY DOG IN FOR THE WALKING SERVICE?
Firstly we arrange a free Meet and Greet service. This allows me to meet with you and your pet in your home at a time that is convenient to you. Here we can discuss any queries you have and suggest a walking routine that would be best suited to your dog.
Before your dog joins a group, they must do 1-4 induction walks. This allows me to assess your dog and match them to a walking buddy.
Once your pup is all booked in, the weekly walking service will begin. I will collect your dog from your home and visit a local park for a fun packed time with some four legged friends. All walks are a minimum of one hour and I walk only four dogs maximum at a time (excluding staff dogs).
