Service Description

Social walks are a fantastic next step up from neutrality work. Dogs will have the opportunity to experience positive social interactions and learn how to speak 'dog' from being within a group, while owners will learn how to read their dogs body language and when to step in during interactions. Social walks always start on-lead and then if you are comfortable we will let you know when you can let your dog off-lead. We will also try and work on training exercises related to the dogs in the group. We highly recommend that dogs wear a muzzle if they are reactive or you aren't sure how they will do - trust us, it really does help your confidence! Our social walks are not able to be booked online as we structure our walks to limit the number of over-reactive dogs so that walks aren't too overwhelming. If we don't know you yet, you will have to have a Social Walk Assessment before joining - get in touch to arrange your assessment. To join a social walk, get in touch via our contact form, or message us on social media/Whatsapp (+447538902982). Don't forget to let us know if you're an Honest Hounds member as you receive a discount on walks. We run a minimum of four per month and each social walk is booked on a first-come first-serve basis so if there is not space on the walk you would like to join then we will let you know when the next available walk is. To join Honest Hounds, head to https://www.honesthounds.co.uk/ and use our code HHCONSTELLATION to get your first months membership of The Pack tier for only £1!
