Run Doggy Run We are a local dog walking and cat care company based in Didcot & Abingdon. For full list of prices, services I have worked with animals since I was a teenager.

Who we are
--------------------
Run Doggy Run is a well established dog walking and small animal care company based in Oxfordshire. We cover a large area which includes Abingdon, Shippon, Didcot, Harwell, Long Wittenham and even parts of South Oxford around Cowley. The company has been running in Oxfordshire for nearly a decade now and in that time has provided over 32,000 dog walks for over 150 customers! We even have dogs that we started puppy visits for that are now slowly moving into old age! From slowly growing from a one man and his van business into a thriving small community we now have an extremely dedicated fully trained small team of professional dog walkers. We walk all shapes and sizes of dogs everything from chihuahuas to great danes! Founder and owner
Richard Dodson
“My name is Richard and animals are my life! I use to look after 15 different species of animals on a petting zoo, ranging from rabbits to cows, horses and even reindeer. After that I moved to Canada and became a volunteer wildlife rehabilitator. I helped to rescue and save everything from bears to raccoons and everything in between!! After my time there I moved back to the UK and have been a dog walker ever since. I have walked every type of dog there is, and have learned to walk everything from calm friendly small dogs to ex-police dogs and hard to handle rescue dogs. In the thousands of hours spent in the company of dogs (the best company you can have in my opinion!) I have learned to deal with all kinds of situations and learned to read dogs body language. I have not yet been given a dog I couldn’t walk! Nor have I EVER refused to walk a dog no matter what the situation. I feel every dog deserves a chance to get out into the countryside and enjoy themselves.

Me and Ash have always shared the same opinion on this one - everyone back on leads for the walk back into the car park

The fun can still carry on, but when we're heading back towards cars and roads, we like the whole pack calm, close, and accounted for.

A proper woodland crew! 🌲🐾Noses down, tails up, and everyone suddenly convinced they’re expert trackers.

Full van today, so Ralphie got promoted to footwell passenger 😅🐾

Couldn’t resist the cap either… absolutely zero complaints from him, just “yo, are we there yet bro?” 😂

Big pack morning, then a very different pace for the afternoon 😅🐾

Full energy first thing.
Then a proper chilled one to finish the day.

Best of both worlds.

Months in the making and finally fitted 👌🚐🐾

These crates were custom-built specifically around our vans and exactly how we work day to day. Loads of measurements, tweaks, waiting… and a few thousand pounds later, they’re finally in.

Not the cheapest upgrade we’ve ever made, but definitely one of the best. Properly solid, secure, and built exactly for the dogs.

Very happy with these.

One of those woodland walks where everything just feels right ☀️🌲🐾

Sun through the trees, happy dogs, and absolutely no need to be anywhere else.

After nearly 10 years of Run Doggy Run, we’ve finally taken the plunge and bought ourselves a third spare van 🚐🐾

Some of our long-standing customers will know the classic sign that something’s gone wrong… us turning up in a completely random rental van 😂 Hopefully those days are now a lot less common.

We’ve also had custom-made DT Box crates built over in Northern Ireland and they are absolutely brilliant. Properly solid, secure, and exactly what we wanted for the dogs.

And somehow, this isn’t even the most exciting crate news of the week…

Watch this space. We’ve got something even bigger coming for the main vans 👀🚐

Forest walks done properly 🌲🐾

A chilled wander with the gang, beautiful weather, plenty of sniffing… and one Vizsla suddenly deciding it was time for an emergency case of the zoomies 😂💨
