Dog Running Club Weybridge Surrey

Here at Wagtails we provide an alternative to the traditional dog walking service – if like us, you have a hyper and extremely active dog which needs constant exercise, then you will benefit from our wagtails running club.

No matter how old or young your dog is exercise is beneficial – the amount and form of exercise just needs to be adapted for your dog’s individual capabilities and requirements.

Our running club is a 1 hour – 1.5 hour run with a maximum of 2 dogs per session.

Depending on your dog we can run with them off the lead – for those dogs who prefer to be kept on the lead at all times we have special running leads that are on a coil basis attached to the runner at all times. This provides flexibility for both dog and runner allowing full movement so dog gets to enjoy their own space but yet the security of being attached at all times.

If you would like your dog to benefit from our running club but a full hour is too long, we can also tailor a running programme to support your dog’s individual ability;

• 1 hour – 1.5 hour run (approximately 8 – 10 miles by runner and 10 – 15 miles by dog)
• 30 min run (4 – 6 miles)
• 30 min run + 30 min walk
• Swimming lessons
• Video cam – to capture their fun and frolics on screen

During the summer months the sun gets to dogs even if the temperature is not that hot to us – so we always take the dogs on runs that are in the woods and are in the shade.

Because we know what dogs enjoy we make sure we keep their exercise varied to keep them stimulated, so we are happy to incorporate our running sessions with trips to the waterside for those water babies.

And for those dogs who are yet to learn how much fun the water is we are happy to take them for swimming lessons, if you have a dog like us who is scared of the water we have special swimming jackets to help build up their confidence in the water.

Have a look at our video (click here) which shows Booty learning to swim in her life jacket (we just need to practice her doggy paddle style now).

We get so much fun out of running with our dogs that we want to share it with you – if you would like us to video them running / swimming session we provide a video which captures their fun and frolics.
