Frequently Asked Questions

What is different about Tails on the Trail walks?

I offer controlled walks away from your dogs triggers, designed to continue all your hard work when your are not able. Walks are 1-2-1 or with my stooge dog Freya should you want your dog to interact with another dog. 

How are the enrichment sessions conducted?

Our enrichment sessions involve interactive games and activities to engage your dog's senses and intelligence. These are carried out in your home with all your dogs

Why home sessions and not walks? Don't dogs need walks?

Of course it is great for our dogs to get out of the house and take in new environments but there are many reasons why that may be unsuitable. These are just some examples

  • If you have multiple dogs that cannot be walked together this is a great afordable alternative to multiple 1-2-1 walks
  • If your dog is reactive and you would prefer only you walk them
  • If the weather is unsuitable for walking but you need to break up the work day
  • If your dog has been triggered alot lately and you want some decompression time, this can be common after stays in kennels

Are you fully insured?

Yes! I am fully insured to drive and work with your dogs both on outside on walks and inside your home. 

Are you first aid trained?

I have attended regular dog first aid training courses with professional parties and I always carry a first aid kit with me

Do I need to provide treats and toys for sessions?

If you have specific treats or toys you would like me to use then you can leave them for me but I will always have a good supply of nutritional and safe treats and toys with me

About us

Dog Walking with a Difference. After struggling to find a suitable walker for my own reactive German Shepherd, I decided to combine my passion for dog training and adventuring and start my own dog walking business, but offering a different kind of service. You can rest assured and relaxed that your dog will not be getting into stressful situations or practicing any bad behaviours. I will treat your dogs as if they were my own and make sure they have the best time ever fulfilling their genetic needs
