If you own a dog, you know how happy they get hearing ‘Walkies’! So why not meet other like-minded people and walk together? To share experiences, inspire and encourage each other, and to explore new places. This is the perfect opportunity for your pooch to meet other dogs, and for you to meet other dog lovers. We rounded up some lovely guided dog-friendly walks in March:
