Walking our dogs

Theodore, Dorset Dog of the Year 2019

UPDATE: 8.30pm Monday 23 March https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/full-guidance-on-staying-at-home-and-away-from-others : people are to take only one session of exercise outside the home once a day, only on their own or with other members of the same household and it is very important to MAINTAIN TWO METRE distance from others and to follow other measures listed at https://www.gov.uk/coronavirus . Please also follow the ‘doggy do code’ . Spring wildlife are very active now especially in this weather so we need to keep our dogs on paths on heaths and certain other places. Check the doggy do code https://www.dorsetdogs.org.uk/wagipawdia/doggy-do-code/ for more detail.

Birds who nest on the ground? Yes it’s true! Lovely Theodore knows how we can help some of Britain’s rarest birds:

1. Be aware of where birds may be nesting low or on the ground: especially heathlands, wetlands & some downs.

2. Keep ourselves and our dogs on the paths in those places.

Even friendly dogs may stop parent birds being able to find a safe nesting place, or scare them away from their nests leaving eggs or chicks exposed to predators and the cold, so look out for signs that tell you there may be birds nesting on the ground and what to do to keep them safe.

For off-lead exercise spring’s a great time to explore your local area & find alternative places to visit!

Find out more and a link to find places with off-lead space available all year round too – look out for Canford Park SANG, Upton Country Park, Riversmeet and some of Dorset’s dog-friendliest beaches here: Wagi-do-code
