    We have several county “Dog Walker’s Guides” and have found them to be brilliant. Having only purchased the Berkshire book last week we have only done one of the walks – Hungerford. This was one of the best walks ever for us and our collie/lab cross, Bella. The instructions were very clear and the walk was just as described with plenty of off-lead running about.

Sometimes dogs get a bad press and sometimes this may be due to irresponsible owners. But we don't believe that this represents the vast majority of dog owners or dogs themselves. The Dog Friendly Pub Walks in Cotswolds book gives basic guidelines to potential situations we may find ourselves in when walking our dogs in the countryside. We don't try to patronise or claim to have all the definitive rules. We just give some good guidelines to encouragesafety and good relations with those that live and work in the countryside.Walking Your Dog in the Cotswolds Countryside The walks included in this book are all designed so that you and your wet-nosed friend have a really enjoyable time. Where there are stiles, they are specially designed with lift gates for dogs. At a quick glance, there is information at the beginning of each walk to tell you what to expect and what you may need to take with you. The descriptive guides will also warn of any roads ahead or areas of livestock so that you can get your dog on the lead well in advance. ​ Dogs just love to explore new places. They really enjoy the new smells and carry themselves a little higher with the added excitement. Going to new places gets you and your dog out and about, meeting new people and their dogs. It is important to socialise dogs, as they will be more likely to act in a friendly manner towards other dogs as they gain confidence. The stunning pictures in this book are just a taster of what you can see along the way. Many of the walks have fantastic views and scenery. Some of the walks are wooded, offering shade on those hot summer days. The walks are graded Easy, Medium and Challenging. They are all around one to three hours long, depending on your and your dog’s pace. You may start with the easy ones and work up to the challenging walks depending on your and your dog’s fitness. Different dog breeds and dog age must be taken into account when you decide which walks to do. Different breeds of dog have different levels of fitness. For example, bulldogs can only do short walks whereas a border collie or a springer spaniel are extremely energetic and difficult to tire out. It is recommended that you do some research on the breed of dog that you own to get to know what sort of exercise that they require.
