Dorset Muscahounds

Dorset Muscahounds Dorset Muscahounds was established in 2015 and offers reliable, professional, fun and friendly group dog walks and 1to1 dog training sessions.

Welcome to Dorset Muscahounds based in Poole, Dorset. I offer a wide range of professional, friendly and fun dog services including - dog walking 1-1 and group, Home / puppy visits, 1-1 training and 1-1 behavioural consultations. I cover all of Poole and the surrounding areas. I offer a free consultation for all my services which enables me to meet you and your dog and discuss the service(s) you r

equire. I am a trustworthy, reliable person, I am DBS checked, trained in canine first aid and fully insured. I have trained with the institute of modern dog trainers (IMDT) on various aspects of dog behaviour using only positive reinforcement. So I am able to offer help to owners and dogs, to overcome any issues they are experiencing through 1-1 training or behavioural consultations. I offer small group walks where I vary the location of the walks to include heaths, woods, recreational areas and the beach to help keep the dogs stimulated. All dogs are assessed before joining group walks to ensure compatibility. During the walk all dogs get the opportunity to sniff, stretch their legs and meet up with old and new friends. When walking your dog(s) my primary aim is to provide the highest levels of care whilst ensuring your dog(s) get the physical / mental stimulation and socialisation they need. So whilst your dog is enjoying his or her walk you have total peace of mind. I also offer 1-1 walks for dogs that require extra training e.g. pulling on the lead, chasing bikes, joggers etc. or are reactive to other dogs or people. I believe communication with every owner is key and I will provide regular updates including photos and videos of your dog(s) enjoying his or her training sessions or walks.

A few photos of today's walk with Reg and Hank. Some of them are not that clear as we were in the shade. As with the hotter weather upon us keeping the dogs cool is a priority. So lots of shade and water plus a water stop before we set off for home.

I had put my shoe dryers away until the winter. But spring has other ideas 🀣 and after getting soaked today they are back out. These are an absolute blessing and ensure I have dry shoes for the next day's walks.

A bit of a soggy walk today which is not ideal for Mid May weather but hey ho. I just think of my flowers. Despite the rain Twiggy, Missy and Reg enjoyed themselves. We had a peaceful walk as Upton Country Park was amazingly quiet.

Missy, Reg and Loki had a great time on their walk today. They were lucky there was no rain. Although overall it has been a very mixed bag weather wise today. The old faithful waterproof coat is back out as that wind is chilly.

As the weather improves and half term looms, people often like to visit the beautiful New Forest. Whether this is for a dog walk, a picnic or a yummy Mr Whippy. Just be aware that 25 stallions have been released into Wood green, Wootton, Burley and Beaulieu Road areas to allow for breeding. The stallions are roaming free until 22nd June. So just keep your eyes peeled. If you see New Forest ponies please give them space and make sure dogs are under control. That way everyone stays safe.

Do you need help with your dog on walks to make life more enjoyable for all?
Does your dog shoot off to meet every dog they see ignoring your recall?
Does your dog lose all sense when seeing other dogs due to excitement?
Does your dog struggle to pay attention to you throughout your walk due to over stimulation.

Then my group Training walks are here to help you. Run by an accredited dog trainer using science led positive training methods.

Group training walks are 1 hour long and run in real life environments (max of 4 dogs). Dogs attending my group training walks must be over 6 months old and be dog / human friendly. During the training walk all dogs will be on long lines. This allows you to give your dog some freedom whilst we set them up for success working on all the important things. ​​​​​​​

​​​Cost of the Group training walk - Β£30 per person + dog

​Next Sessions:
Thursday 4th June at 6 pm at Upton Country Park
Saturday 13th June at 10 am at Upton Country Park

Had a lovely walk with Reg and Hank today in the beautiful sunshine. About 3/4 of the way through our walk there was this really loud cracking sound and a huge part of a tree had come down. Luckily no one was close but it blocked the path.
