🐾❤️ What a week it’s been… ❤️🐾

The recent heat dome has forced us to close our walking services, and while that’s never an easy decision, we will always put the health and safety of our pups before profit.

Like many dog walking businesses across East Grinstead, Lingfield, Felbridge, Crawley Down and Forest Row, we face the challenge of these extreme temperatures year after year. The financial impact can be difficult, but nothing is more important than keeping our dogs safe, happy and healthy.

We want to send our respect and support to all the other dog walking services navigating the same situation. Behind every business is a person who genuinely cares, and we know from speaking with fellow walkers that the strain on mental wellbeing and finances can be tough. But together, we’ll get through it.

We do this because we love our dogs. Yes, it’s a business, but it’s also a lifestyle built around caring for the incredible pups who become part of our extended family. When conditions aren’t safe, we take the hit because our dogs deserve nothing less.

We were grateful to enjoy some early morning adventures with our beautiful pups before the temperatures became too high. As always, the weather changed quickly and plans had to adapt at short notice.

A huge thank you to all our wonderful pawrents for your patience, understanding and support as we continue to navigate these challenging conditions. Your kindness means the world to us.

Here’s hoping for cooler days, wagging tails, muddy paws and plenty more adventures together very soon. 🐕🐾❤️

🐾 Thursday’s Crew 🐾

The memo clearly said “calm and sensible walk”… unfortunately none of the dogs received it. 🤣

This morning’s gang were full of beans, full of zoomies and full of questionable decision-making in the long grass! 🌾💨 The longer the grass, the faster they seemed to go.

It was fantastic to have Tru back with us too after some time off — and she wasted absolutely no time getting stuck into the fun! 🐶❤️

Lots of running, lots of sniffing, lots of happy faces and plenty of muddy paws. Just how a Thursday should be!

Wouldn’t have it any other way. 🐾

🌳🐾 Wednesday’s pack adventure took us to one of our favourite Forest Row spots this morning, and the gang did not disappoint! 💚

Leading the way as always was Otis 🐕‍🦺, proudly taking on his role as the pack’s big brother and self-appointed close protection officer. No squirrel, stick, or suspicious leaf goes unnoticed on his watch! 😂

Meanwhile, Pepper ❤️ and Marley ❤️ were busy showing their love for each other in their own special way — equal parts affection, mischief, and chaos! 🥰🐾

The dynamic duo, bros Peanut and Max 🐶🐶, were out in matching energy levels today, twinning their way through the woods and enjoying a good play session together. 💙

And then there’s Frenchie Alpha 👑, simply doing what Alpha does best… being unapologetically Alpha! 😎🐾

Fresh air, wagging tails, woodland zoomies, and plenty of happy faces made for a perfect Wednesday morning adventure! 🌲✨

A lovely Tuesday adventure through some of our favourite Sussex hotspots! ☀️🐾

New boy Alan made a splash on his first swim with us 🌊, while Greyhound duo Glinda and Ebony enjoyed stretching their legs. Frenchie besties Mabel and Alpha were full of character as always, and Treacle kept a watchful eye on everyone with her own guard of honour! 👀🐶

Meanwhile, Pablo, Polo and Marley stuck together like the Three Musketeers, causing mischief and having the best time.

Happy pups, muddy paws and plenty of wagging tails all round! ❤️

🐾 First day back after our holidays and what a welcome we got! 🥰

It was so lovely catching up with our Monday pups across East Grinstead and Lingfield. Tails were wagging, zoomies were in full swing, and it was clear they were just as excited to see their furry friends (and us!) as we were to see them. 🐕❤️

The weather couldn’t have been more perfect ☀️, the pups were happy, and we somehow managed to dodge most of the cow poo… which is always a win in the countryside! 💩😂

Fresh air, happy dogs, lots of playtime, and plenty of cuddles — these pups really do live their best lives! 🐾🌳🐶

❄️🐶 All our pups together and absolutely loving life! 🐶❄️
What a fun-filled, cold and snowy return to 2026 for our first few days back out walking! From frosty fields to crunchy woodland paths, our pack have been making the most of the winter wonderland across Sussex & Surrey — with nonstop zoomies, snowy paws and very happy, tired pups at the end of each walk. 🐾💙

As we begin our expansion, we’re so excited to welcome even more pups into our growing pack and bring our walks to new areas, while keeping the same care, safety and fun that your dogs know and love. There’s nothing better than seeing them run, play and explore safely together with their friends in the fresh winter air.

Here’s to many more adventures, wagging tails and winter walks ahead!
If your pup loves making friends and getting out in the countryside, we’d love to welcome them into the pack 🐕✨

🐾 Pepper leading the pack this week!
It’s been heartwarming to see some of the gang reunited after a period of isolation due to kennel cough. We’re taking a cautious, phased approach—so a few of our pups are still keeping their distance as a precaution. 💛

Despite a soggy Monday, we’ve been treated to some sunny spells for our Tuesday adventure walks—perfect for stretching paws and wagging tails! 🌦️🐶

🚨 Kennel Cough Outbreak Update 🚨
West Sussex | East Sussex | Surrey

We’ve had to make the tough but responsible decision to isolate several of our pups this week due to a local outbreak of kennel cough. 🐶💨 Health always comes first — no matter the financial cost to the business. We will never put money above the wellbeing of your pups. 💔💸

Some dog walking services continue as usual, ignoring symptoms or overcrowding dogs. We’re not about that. 💯 Health over money, every time. Your dog’s safety is our top priority.

📚 What is kennel cough?
It’s a highly contagious respiratory illness caused by a mix of bacteria and viruses — easily spread through shared water bowls, close contact, or group walks with no health checks. Symptoms include:
• A dry, hacking cough
• Sneezing
• Lethargy or nasal discharge

🚫 If your pup is coughing or feeling under the weather, keep them home and avoid dog parks or group walks.

✅ How to keep your dog safe:
• Avoid high-contact dog areas during outbreaks
• Keep vaccinations up to date
• Choose walkers who prioritize health and limit exposure during outbreaks (like us!)

Despite fewer pups on our adventures this week, we still had fun, fresh air, and tail wags on every outing. 🌲🐾

Thanks for trusting us to do the right thing — even when it’s not the easy thing. ❤️

Our crew’s been soaking up the October sunshine at their favourite farm – complete with epic reservoir views and fields perfect for zoomies! ☀️🐾

Honestly, it’s giving spring vibes, not autumn… but let’s be real – these pups would chase sticks in a snowstorm. Rain or shine, they’re always up for a pawsome time! 🐶🌼🍂

They’re not just good boys and girls – they’re sun-chasing, tail-wagging, field-zooming superstars. 🌟
