Pannage started today. The time when pigs are turned out. Due to the lack of acorns and the disneyifcation of the New Forest we ask you and all New Forest Social Media sites not to post where the pigs are, They will struggle to find mast, and being plagued by photographers and influencers using livestock for content will make thing worse.

Please let them do their job as they should without interuption.

“Dog walking sounds like the easiest job in the world.”

Until you actually do it.

It’s the loneliness when you spend hours working on your own.

The mud, the mess, the rain, the freezing mornings and scorching days.

The physical strain, the injuries, the exhaustion that builds up over time.

The unpredictability of dog behaviour and the huge responsibility that comes with caring for someone else’s beloved pet.

It’s traffic.
It’s transport.
It’s vans breaking down.
It’s fuel, insurance, repairs and everything else that comes with keeping yourself on the road.

It’s juggling schedules, cancellations, early starts, late finishes and trying to make the numbers work when your income isn’t guaranteed.

And then there’s all the work nobody sees.

The messages.
The bookings.
The paperwork.
The planning.
The admin.
The constant organising behind the scenes.

It can mean sacrificing weekends, evenings, holidays and time with the people you love.

There’s emotional pressure, too. The worry when a dog is unwell. The guilt when something goes wrong. The stress of trying to keep every dog safe, happy and cared for while keeping a business running at the same time.

And eventually, there’s burnout.

So yes, from the outside, dog walking might look like getting paid to walk dogs all day.

But behind every happy, muddy, tired dog going home is a person carrying far more than a lead.

It’s physically demanding. It’s emotionally exhausting. It’s unpredictable. And sometimes, it’s really bloody hard.

But despite all of that… I genuinely wouldn’t have it any other way.

Because the muddy paws, wagging tails, ridiculous characters, little moments of trust and the bond you build with these dogs make every difficult day worth it.

I love this job.
I love the dogs.
And even on the days when it pushes me to my absolute limit, I wouldn’t swap it for anything! ❤️
