Dog Gone Running

At Dog Gone Running, we believe that dogs are more than just pets - they are family members. As such we know that both their physical and mental health is important to you. 

Running helps dogs to stay fit and healthy and can also support dogs that have anxiety or behavioural problems. We will tailor the runs to meet the needs of your loved one.

All runners at Dog Gone Running are experienced dog owners and lovers. We all share the same philosophy for animal welfare and will take the upmost care when your dog is out with us. Some runners may be quicker and travel further than others but we will endeavour to match your pups needs with the appropriate runner. 

Primarily a dog running service, runs are available mornings, afternoons and evenings both weekdays and weekends. The introduction run will be a shorter run and is free. This will give the opportunity to assess your dog and adjust runs accordingly.

Please make contact with Graham by whatever means you prefer. You will then be asked a few questions about your dog such as, breed, temperament, recall response, fitness level, general health and reaction to others.

You can then ask any questions you may have and explain what you're looking for.

Arrange a time that is suitable to meet a runner, this is likely to be in woodlands or somewhere with open space and close to nature. If you are happy the runner will take your dog for a 30 min run and short walk to assess their level. This run is free of any charge and will allow you to assess whether our service is something you're looking for.

Once you are happy with what we have to offer, we can agree time and frequency of runs. It is important to note that initially all runs will be on lead until such time as the runner is confident that their relationship and recall with your dog is  strong. Only then will your dog be allowed off lead and only where appropriate.
