Paws Platoon

Our dog inspired me, Blue our Weimaraner came to us when we needed a dog back in our lives after losing our beloved family Labrador a year and half previously. It’s not until you've loved and lost a dog, that you realise how important they are in your life, the massive hole they leave behind when they have passed on. Dogs are sentient beings and their understanding of humans and the way they fit into our lives is remarkable. I worked in the corporate sector for many years, but due to family commitments, I had to review my future. There are so many dog walkers out there who don't provide the service both you and your furry friend deserves. It’s a vastly growing business, and I wanted to make a change.
Dog ownership has changed over the decades as our lives get busier. Research by RSPCA has shown that 22% of dogs spend four or more hours alone during the average weekday. Employing a dog walker helps ensure your dog is not left alone for too long. The survey also found that one fifth of dogs were reported to, or had in the past, shown separation related behaviour when alone. But a simple solution to further reduce this number is the employment of a dog walker. I like that I have a degree of control and freedom within my job to be able to look after my elderly mother whilst providing a service to my clients and of course I get to share my time with lots of different dogs, which makes me happy and keeps my customers happy too.
