Claire's Canines

Description

I have always loved dogs. I was brought up with them. A house without a dog is simply not a home. As well as terrific company and a constant source of love and amusement, they get us out of the house walking, enjoying the scenery, getting fresh air and socialising with other dog owners. Walking is terrific for dogs too, allowing them to tap into many natural instincts including sniffing, chasing, and playing, crucial skills for a healthy balanced life.
Sometimes though, our own lives get in the way. Work, school, college- with our own responsibilities, squeezing in a fulfilling dog walk is sometimes impossible. This often leads to destructive, or worst case, snappy behaviour as your dog seeks to let off steam another way. That’s where we come in!

Claire’s Canines started in 2021, but the idea and planning for it began way back in 2018 and 2019 when I was living in Spain. I often walked my friends' dogs to help when she was at work, and dog sat for her when she had to work overtime. Upon my return to the UK, I missed the experience and decided to start up my own company full time.

We cater for all dogs of all breeds and ages. We understand some dogs love a good run, while others prefer a slow simple walk. What makes us different is that every walk is bespoke to your dog's needs, for example, if you have a young dog who needs good daily exercise, we will give them a chance to exercise off-leash (with owners permission). Older dogs or dogs with health problems will be provided with shorter more local walks, less strenuous, but still getting that crucial exercise needed and don’t worry if your dog is not particularly sociable. I can cater for solo walks too.

Best paw forward!
